antipopes

Do they annihilate releasing huge amounts of energy if they touch the regular pope?

The long and short of it is this:

• Linux is the kernal, the bit of the OS responsible for interacting with hardware and organising processes that run
• GNU packages are a collection of small software programs that are present in virtually every Linux distro (things like bash, grep, and libc) that are needed to make the OS do useful things.
• together they make up “GNU/Linux”, which is often shortened to simply Linux. Which is fine, people will understand what you’re talking about from context, and only pedantic asshats will correct you in general conversation. This is the internet though and you’re bound to run into a pedantic asshat from time to time.

I explicitly wanted a google one, not some Samsung-shit who add their own garbage on top of Google’s garbage.

Samsung TVs run Tizen which is their own OS, rather than a skinned Android TV. It’s pretty minimal so you need some other box or stick if you want a good watching experience, but it doesn’t do anything hostile as long as you turn the tracking bs off at setup, and there are no ads in the UI (at least on the 2019 model my parents have).

There’s no truly open source TV OS though :( I miss Firefox OS
