>GNU/Linux was a term that was promoted by the Free Software Foundation (FSF) and its founder Richard Stallman up until 2015 when the term was abandoned.
So, he finally stopped trying to arrogate credit for being too incompetent to get his own project working?
>In May 2015 Stallman began calling Linux-based operating systems "the GNU operating system".

I feel like shark attacks is not a good way of comparison when it comes to dying, since just about anything that kills more than a few people a year has beaten deaths by the sharks.
>On March 2, 2016, a man in Concrete, Washington, shot himself in the face with a gun and died while taking a selfie.
I did some research, and it turns out he shot himself by accident. For some reason I'm not surprised.
>>278
There were several incidents on that list where someone shot themselves on accident by taking a selfie. I wonder if selfies are particularly dangerous, or we're just find it funny when someone dies from one, so journalists report on them more.
>A Polish couple fell to their death off a cliff in Portugal after crossing a safety barrier to take a selfie with their children. Their two children who were present at the scene survived.
How are they going to deal with that when they grow up I wonder. Think about the PTSD flashbacks they'll have whenever someone takes a selfie. Think about how hard it will be to explain to their spouses that their parents died in a selfie accident.
That's why they put up god damn safety barriers. If you're fucking stupid enough to cross one, you probably deserve to fall off a cliff and die.
I do feel bad for the kids, though.

Copyleft, like any IP license, is based on the creator's right to determine how their work is used. Without copyright law it would shrivel up and disappear.
