Barbie makes it to computer class just before the bell rings. As soon as class begins, Barbie raises her hand. "Yes, Barbie?" asks Ms. Smith, the teacher. "I found out that if your computer gets a virus and crashes,  you can retrieve all the files you lost. Can I tell the others?" asks Barbie.

"I just feel sorry for her, don't you?" ToKen whispered to BroKen. "Imagine thinking that customers are asking for something better than F-level!"  "I know, right?" BroKen giggled back.  "All the BI says customers love writing their own docs because ours are shit.  Er, well...that is, all the BI we have since we dumped any negative feedback that didn't support our predrawn conclusions."

After class, Steven and Brian meet with Barbie in the library. "Dude, She's so hot," says Brian. "If she'd just let me help her, I bet she wouldn't regret it!" Steven feels like Brian is a jerk but hopes that Barbie will see what a nice guy he is. Once Barbie notices them she thinks, "Oh great! I really wish these idiots would leave me alone. They don't know anything about programming and I have a lot of work to get done!"

After class, Barbie meets with Steven and Brian in the library. "You're late." says Barbie. "I sent you my designs, but began writing the program while I waited for you--and Skipper helped too! I need to get back to testing it on both of our laptops."

"Hey guys, can I join in?" asks Brian as he steps up to Barbie's workstation. "For the last time, Brian!" exclaims Barbie "Using a gendered term like 'guys' to refer to a group of persyns is incredibly sexist! You are literally raping me with your words!" "Mhm, you tell 'em Barbie," comments Steven, "as a proud, trans-Asian, genderfluid otherkin, I am exceptionally triggered by Steven's monochrome worldview; I'm updating my blog as we speak." Barbie gives Steven a concensual pat on the back and turns to Brian. "See what you do!? Your cis heteronormative patriarchial white male privilige is oppressing me! And stop plugging in your Dreamcast, nobody wants to play Sonic R with you!"

"Your robot puppy is so sweet," says Skipper. "Can I play your game?" "I'm only creating the design ideas, right now" Barbie says, laughing, "I'll need a couple of weeks of coding and testing time to turn it into a real game!"

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux 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 Linux, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.

There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux 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. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called Linux distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux

After class, Barbie meets with Steven and Brian in the library. "Hey Barbie," says Brian, "playing FarmVille again? lolz" "Fuck off," says Barbie, "I have to get this shit done for my microprocessor design seminar." "Whoa!" Steven cuts in, "No need to be so hostile Barbie, we were just trying to help."

"I've got Skipper's assignment from the hard drive!" exclaims Jamal. "Fantastic!" says Barbie. "And her other files, as well?" "I've got everything," says Jamal.  "Now let's high-five!" Barbie agrees nervously, hoping that Jamal's blackness won't rub off on her deliciously white skin.
