Linux
The invention of “commands” was the downfall of computers. Real users just need an interpreted so they could use libraries’ functions directly.
u wot m8? Real computermen just toggle in bits on the front panel.

You know these were mainly for debugging and the way they were meant to be used was with a floppy disk and a teletype, right?
The teletype was a major upgrade, and had paper type for storage. I doubt many hobbyists had access to a floppy drive in the 70's. Even Wozniak had some trouble building the one for Apple. So basically, a lot of people started with just the front panel if they bought IMSAI or Altair kits. Like this guy, for example:

arch is like gentoo but with all the good things removed

good post
"GNU/Linux" is not a system; Linux is indeed just a kernel and for whatever reason technically illiterate fools came to refer to I-know-not-even-what with that word which mostly seems to be a social than a technical concept.
GNU felt left out and started advocating the term "GNU/Linux" to refer to that same I-know-not-even what.
There is no "GNU/Linux" system; Ubuntu, Void, Fedora, Gentoo, Slackware, those are systems and they're all quite different from one another. The idea that there is some kind of "GNU operating system" out there that is completed except for a kernel wherein "Linux" is incorporated to fill the missing part is bullshit. These five systems I mentioned are composed of a variety of components from very different origins that are bolted together; many of which originate from GNU yes but there is no "GNU operating system" at this point nor is it interesting to start making it. GNU originally set out to do that and never even came close to completing it because there was no need as more and more things became free software GNU had no need to rewrite them from scratch as they indeed became free software. systemd, agetty, Runit, Xorg, LibreSSL, procps, Gummiboot, are all these o.s.-components these systems use part of GNU? No they aren't and GNU isn't trying to re-invent them either since they exist and are free software.
There is no "GNU/Linux operating system" nor is there a "Linux operating system"; there are many, many, many, many different operating systems that re-use some GNU and Linux components amongst others yes which they can do because these components are free software — that's all.
