There are only so many nouns that start with G. Everyone knows all Linux programs must be a noun and an acronym that starts with "GNU" (which is itself a noun and an acronym that starts with GNU)
KDE would liKe to Know your loKation.

DO NOT USE A ACRYONYM FOR THIS UNLESS YOU ARE A PRIDEFUL FILIPINO!!!!
These two joKes just had me laughing unKontrollably at my phone.
KDE is not an abbreviation, and not in the same way than XNA is not an abbreviation. Originally it was the Kool Desktop Environment which was quickly dropped not for the obvious KDE Desktop Environment but K Desktop Environment, which kinda makes sense given that KDE replaces 'c's with 'k' all over the place -- such as, to wit, its name as it's a reference to CDE. Nowadays it's plain KDE though.
Cool Desctop Environment
a long time ago I've heard that maybe the only reasoning behind the "K" is that it comes before "L" in the alphabet (L, cause of "Linux")
Idk how true is this, but I've found this "explanation" amusing.
Make sure you've installed Flatseal from the DisKover Store
KDE Komedy Klassic? That's not good...
So it's GNU the whole way down?
Always has been
🌏👨🚀🔫👨🚀
GNU Nominal Universalism
That's old GNUs
or as I've recently taken to calling it
old GNUs
When they finish the words with G they can just add another layer of recursion and create BIG, an acronym for "BIG Is GNU". And from there go on like a word chain game
Being free from megacorps let's humans be humans, to express themselves, I love it, the jokes are nice (and are jokes, unlike the nightmare abominations like Clippy and their AIs).
It might be some weird act of masochism but I liked clippy.
Really, huh, that's ... kinda nice to know? (In the 'world is the tiniest bit better than I knew' way)
I have enjoyed various creepy Clippy art/mini lore.
It's basically an SCP thing.
I did too, but I was a child and in retrospect I feel like that made me the target audience.
Like I get that Microsoft has for a long time been trying to make tech and computers feel non threatening. And clippy feels like a reasonable attempt especially within the program it was created for Microsoft Bob which was something I can totally see a world in which it had been popular
I hope this is AI generated and not something someone actually took time to draw.
Can confirm.

Seems like a redundant category, I believe you can comfortably slot them into the other 2 categories
There's admittedly some overlap

And Trojitá (the email client) was written by a Czech. It means “triple” in Czech, and Czech Republic is famous for porn.
This is why I use Krita
Which has nothing to do with nerdy sex perverts whatsoever
I am afraid to open Krita in public because its mascot Kiki (the robot squirrel girl) is drawn dangerously close to upskirt in the splashscreen.
GIMP's is just mushrooms, nothing objectionable.
I've been there, at work no less
SEXO
it's giving vaporeon vibes too
Her look varies by artist. She is usually whiter and not as apparently robotic. There is a reference design but it's not really official. More info
At least the name just means crayon.
GNU's not Unix tool kit image manipulation program. As long as you don't believe Unix actually is an acronym
hold up im pretty sure it's without the "tool kit" part
GTK is the GIMP tool kit
GNUTKIMP
It's a recursive acronym so it could expand indefinitely into GNUNUNUNU...TKIMP, similarly to wineineineine... or Benoît Benoît ... B. ... Mandelbrot Mandelbrot. Like a ZIP bomb, never try to expand it fully.
I'm so meta, even this acronym
The name was decided before the acronym, just unfortunate
Also works with packages having their name starting with OPEN or Libre
Open paKage.
I don't know if this memory of mine is real, or just a (day)dreaming or my brain just fucks with me, or just too much acid, but I clearly remember lots of years ago I opened GIMP and the splash screen had this fox IN A FUCKING GIMP SUIT!
Probably the very instant mum walks in, too.
I guess she got used to the sight of drawn animals in gimp suit on my screen by that time
Engineers have always been pervs. As evidence, resistor color codes are remembered by:

As taught in college. In my situation, our professor disappeared mid semester, as he was arrested for child porn, and was the biggest supplier of child porn in Colorado at the time...
Pretty much everywhere has cracked down on that kind of thing for a while.
Im almost afraid to ask, but could you explain how that helps remembering resistor colors?
Black brown red orange yellow green blue violet gray white
I have a passing familiarity with the colors and that just helped me list them out... now I feel gross
The open source game framework Löve (Love2D) has some incredible library names, here's a few select ones out of context:
Hump
Lövetoys
Löve Bone
Quickie
Goo
Pölygamy
Swingers
Adult Lib
Gspöt
Möan/Talkies
fLUIds
Yaoui
Do these even make more sense with context?
Most of them are a stretch but they do!
Hump is for collision detection, Lovetoys is helper functions, I believe Love Bone is an animation system, etc.
Hm...
You think there are some die-hard Christians against the use of BSD? 🤔
seen a few they seem to be okay with openbsd tho because it uses the pufferfish

Just install vigor.

What and gimp and gnome is weird?
Gnome is fantasy related and gimp is a sex thing
As a non English native , today I learned what gimp is.😶
Did he say it as a compliment, admittance or insult?
Yes.
