    She’s very clever, but the arc of her political consciousness has been a sparking box of shorted wires, unless Poe’s Law has lead me astray. I wonder if she’s grown out of her techofascist turn, assuming it wasn’t an elaborate, Andy Kaufmanesque bit.

      It sounds like the Linux kernel is a separate project from the actual distros which tend to use the same or similar kernel. The way BSD distros came about is that they are derived from 4.4-Lite2 BSD, and they developed their own fork of the kernel. FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD, and some other BSDs (I’m not sure if this applies to all, plus OpenBSD is a fork of NetBSD) each develop their own kernel as part of their distro as opposed to pulling it from a separate, standalone project. This is probably why they are distinctively listed and count as each their own.

      Forgive me if I am wrong, I haven’t researched much into it and haven’t played with BSD yet.

        If the last common release was in 1995 and they’ve headed in different directions, then it’s kinda fair, I suppose.
