    Honestly it feels almost dangerous to call the people in the bottom photo idiots. They know exactly what they’re fucking doing and the cruelty and power are the entire fucking point. This is why Idiocracy can’t actually happen, if the entire population’s intelligence suffered that much we would all be dead long before we got to the world of the film. These people are evil tyrants who are systematically and ruthlessly destroying the fabric of our government and country, not hapless buffoons with good intentions.

    Richard Stallman bursts through the wall ”IVE NEVER INSTALLED GNU/LINUX!”

    To actually answer you: Linux itself isn’t what most computer users would understand as an ‘operating system’. GNU/Linux is a family of software packages that are used to build an operating system but there is no ‘Linux OS’ the way there is Windows. And SteamOS is poised to be the best shot at significantly increasing the market share of gnu/Linux based operating systems in the general population. The steam deck is basically just the pilot program for the full release of an OS what, a decade in the making? That said, most people aren’t really going to care let alone understand the nuances of Linux/gnu/foss/kernals/etc. and so Steam OS, though a distro build on GNu/Linux technology, is going to look like its own thing to most outside observers.

    If this is flawed please feel free to correct me!
