Please help us delete all totally-not-existing evidence of Pat (allegedly) organizing troling and harassment of n-people by reporting it -- We don't want more shit against our favorite n-hater coming out. Please continue to defend Patrick on threads/bsky/twitter as well and keep touting that he is NOT the one doing this. #StandWithPat

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you’re referring to as Vietnix, is in fact, GNU/Vietnix, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Vietnix. Vietnix is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.
Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called “Vietnix”, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project. There really is a Vietnix, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use.
Vietnix is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine’s resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Vietnix is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Vietnix added, or GNU/Vietnix. All the so-called “Vietnix” distributions are really distributions of GNU/Vietnix.
