...Yay! Now I really have caught up with Psych. Thankyou![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
patternsofchaos for your kindness in my hour of foolery.
Did Linux used to be called Unix? Hmm? I wonder things sometimes.
However! Despite my otherwise sunny disposition, I am angered greatly, once again, by the breathtaking incompetence of the lump of arbitrary and defective cells that is my "boss" [or store owner, if you will]. Somehow, he's neglected to put my wages in an envelope for me. David [the manager] is going to look into it for me, but god damnit, I want my god damned money now. It angers me. Seriously! The incompetence of this "man" is unparralelled!
But! On to happy news! I am the Queen of Driving - I drove home from Uni today, in busy traffic on busy roads, and I was not terrified or stressed. I managed to relax and only screwed up twice [or so], and that wasn't even on any busy roads, that was in Guildford and Midland. And I can park, go me.
Aaaand I was looking at things in Dick Smiths today, and I think I will buy Idril a scanner-printer. There's a really neat HP one for only $125, and I [will] have Birthday money. OR I will save towards a car. But saving money depresses me greatly. Because I do far too much of it... All too often I feel like I have no money, even though I'm working.. so what I need to do, clearly, is work more, because whenever I manage to save money, suddenly something retarded crops up, like having to pay for my text books, and I have to delve into my savings :(. But I don't know how I can fit more stuff in.. Maybe Wednesday. Yes.
Oh!velithya, I thought I should let you know that next thursday [the 18th] I won't be able to stay at uni, because I have a Dentisty Appointment thing. In regards to that Charity... Vigil... Thingie, which you asked about the other day - because I wouldn't want to have lied. O_o.
So, yes. Angry with boss, so very, very angry, but am planning to buy things, have a birthday soon AND will probably see Gavin tomorrow, so am more happy than angry, yay!
Once again, however, I haven't put anything intelectually stimulating in my livejournal. Aww.. sorry. If you're after that thoughlone_one is very good at making her updates intelectually interesting. And intresting in general. :D

Date: 2005-08-09 02:47 pm (UTC)On the topic of Unix/Linux.
Date: 2005-08-09 01:52 pm (UTC)The GNU (GNU is Not Unix) collection of programs was designed to be free open source tools that behave in similar ways to their proptietry unix counterparts.
Then you have the Linux Kernel itself which is also open source. The kernel is also not Unix but is designed to behave in a similar manner (it was originally based on Minix)
When you combine the two you get GNU/Linux (which is commonly just reffered to as 'Linux'), which is not actually unix but it is a unix-like operating system.
Really though, Linux Behaves like unix, looks like unix, smells like unix and (probably) tastes like unix, the difference is just a difference in code-base.
