I'm reconsidering my terminal emulator and was curious what everyone was using.

Silva? Are you Portuguese or Brazilian?

[-] silva@beehaw.org 2 points 1 year ago

Neither, actually. I don't know why I call myself silva, but that's not my real name.

Lol thats a common surname here in Brazil. It means jungle in latin so the priests used to give this surname to converted natives.

Interesting. In English, "Silvan" mean a spirit that lives in the woods. It's often used in literature as a synonym for "elves."

That's what I was thinking, but I noped out of a linguistics minor after a year when I realized it was never going to turn into "learning a bunch of languages" and was instead spending all your time doing sentance diagramming.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
