Why imgur though, why not link directly to xkcd?
I had it saved on my phone and Memmy auto uploads images to Imgur.
Edit: added xkcd links
Ah, makes sense I guess.
A gnu dawn lol.
It is very funny, but just in case there is anyone out there like me…
Having only ever seen the word written and in the context of Linux that is capitalised, I always supposed it was pronounced g.n.u. or at worst nu, and thought the wildebeest was a logo of no relation - like Linux and the penguin.
It was only later in life I found out that gnu was pronounced gah-noo and was in fact another name for wildebeests.
It’s definitely pronounced without the g sound.
The animal yes, the GNU’s Not Unix no. Same goes for GNOME and all derivative words.
Guh-imp.

I would just like to interject…
I don’t get it. Why do they leave? Help me. I’m stupid.
They are not real hitmen, they are just pranking Open source gurus. The idea is that they are so paranoid that they are ready to closed source industry send real hitmen in the night
It’s actually pretty funny when you understand the joke. These XKCD fellas have potential.
My good man, XKCD is currently on comic #2801. They’ve been around for well over a decade.
Oh wow. I saw #2801 but just assumed they were counting backwards from #2850. Looks like you’re right!

That’s not your favorite XKCD, it’s our
Free software does not equal Communism
In Soviet Russia Communism equals you.
Wait…I know, but the free software moviment is similar in some aspects and i loved this xkcd
It really isn’t
I mean, one of the central goals of communism to abolish ownership of the means of production.
Software used to produce something of value is a resource that in a communist society should not be owned. The only way to achieve this is to let everything be opensource.
So communists clearly like the free software movement, whether inverse is true is a matter for debate.
I guess I disagree
