linux salt 

I hate it when people say GNU/Linux when they mean Linux. It's totally possible to use Linux without any GNU tools. GCC isn't the only compiler

@noiob The only ones I've seen who insist upon GNU/Linux are those who think Hurd is still viable.

@garpu I meant less like FOSSbros who insist on it but people who just say it that way for some reason

@noiob Ah yeah. I mean, don't get me wrong. I like FOSS. But it's not the only way of doing things.

re: linux salt 

@garpu oh, FOSS is great, but it's also apparently a great basis to be an asshole

re: linux salt 

@noiob No argument there. I think newbie-friendly distros like Ubuntu have lessened it a tad since the 90's, though.
