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.

"It would be weird to get offended because someone told you to"
Right, but it happens. The post which triggered this reply chain is essentially a litmas test for what I'm describing.
The acronym of RICE was made after the racist connotations were already established. It's an attempt to rewrite history so people could continue saying it.
It is documented to have come from racial origins in the 1960's. Yet, I can't find anything about the acronym from more than twenty years ago.
