What is Digg?84 Comments
- Shootfast, on 07/17/2008, -1/+61Beastie = FreeBSD
Puffy = OpenBSD
FreeBSD =! OpenBSD - Paintingblack, on 07/17/2008, -1/+39I'm afraid of the person who actually looked up masturbating monkey.
- danielkempkens, on 07/16/2008, -3/+41Puffy is OpenBSD's current mascot. Beastie was replaced around the time of the OpenBSD 2.7 release.
- sockpuppets, on 07/17/2008, -2/+39As a masturbating monkey I must take exception to his statement. Most of us run Ubuntu anyway.
- newbill123, on 07/17/2008, -4/+39Insufficient; it needs to be a monkey that is ejaculating on a penguin.
- Jenadae, on 07/17/2008, -6/+26ZOMG I CAN USE TEH MSPAINTS AND STICK 2 PICS TOGETHER THEN ADD ADS TO MY WEBSITE AND MAKE TEH MONEYS!!!
I'm just jealous i didn't do it tbqh >.> - winmywii, on 07/17/2008, -1/+19I have a hard enough time trying to keep distros straight and now you throw this mascot crap at me?
- TheMu, on 07/17/2008, -2/+16Dude, WTF? Please tag this sort of material as NSFW in the future, kthxbai.
- MegaJimmy8, on 07/17/2008, -0/+13I think his mouth is...
- Joomal, on 07/17/2008, -4/+17Posting anything related to OpenBSD on digg is like trying to teach a 3 month old about computer engineering... you're just going to end up with puke all over.
Digg is more concerned with the '10 best ways to show that girl you like her' or '8 ways to cheat on your exam.'
Digg me dooowwnnn!
j - jkc120, on 07/17/2008, -1/+12Buried as inaccurate. The title should say "New Logo for OpenBSD". Please don't assume FreeBSD (or NetBSD) users are asshats like Theo and the OpenBSD crew.
- limoo, on 07/17/2008, -1/+12Beastie. Like BSD. Get it? :)
- seantubridy, on 07/17/2008, -4/+14Neither of those are logos. One is an illustration and one is a photo. A photo of a monkey that's.. Oh. My. God.
- LeviTheSmith, on 07/17/2008, -0/+10u cant spel lol
- AlanFang, on 07/17/2008, -0/+7And to think humans have to remove several ribs to be able to do that...

Links brought to you by the source of all knowledge. - paloooz, on 07/17/2008, -1/+7"Were" - subjunctive mood.
- Jeffler, on 07/17/2008, -0/+6Wrong place - you're looking for 4chan
- Lewie, on 07/17/2008, -0/+6Yeah, and some people just like to say "*****".
- Burn, on 07/17/2008, -0/+6He said UI, not GUI. The CLI, whether you love it or not is still very much a UI.
I'm sure an application with just a CLI UI would meet Linus' expectations just fine. - Eze2k, on 07/17/2008, -1/+6“My name is Linus, and I am your God.”
“I have an ego the size of a small planet”.
“Really, I’m not out to destroy Microsoft. That will just be a completely unintentional side effect.”
OMG he rlz - inactive, on 07/17/2008, -0/+4KDE also has a mascot ;)
So it's not even just OS's. - Samovar, on 07/17/2008, -0/+4Right... and he decided to take it out on OpenBSD... lucky netBSD gets along with everyone.
- jeebusroxors, on 07/17/2008, -1/+5Shame on you all for digging this crappy blog site up. I don't give a ***** what linux "haxor" has to say about the subject.
Link to the actual thread:
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/706950 - Kingoftherings, on 07/17/2008, -0/+4I always thought the name of the FreeBSD mascot was Daemon...
- mrsteveman1, on 07/17/2008, -0/+3http://www.hexley.com/hexley_fork_450.htm
- mrsteveman1, on 07/17/2008, -1/+4Most people who say ***** like that don't actually understand either of them enough to find valid technical differences.
- c00l2sv, on 07/17/2008, -0/+3Just stop the *****' flood with misspelled and senseless news submitted to digg.
Most of us here have no rights in criticizing Linus or OpenBSD team (at least they contributed with some pretty nice pieces of code).
Wanna have fun, start reading comics (xkcd is a good starting point). - JustinTX, on 07/17/2008, -2/+5"Buried for not good grammar."
LOL! Fail. - Tiak, on 07/17/2008, -0/+2I am only commenting here because you stole my icon...
Really, it's a sort of mascot solidarity; Beasty got taken out by a hit on Puffy turned sour because they were related... Hexley is a distant cousin, so we should be watching our backs... - sarixe, on 07/18/2008, -0/+2!=
- lordmorgul, on 07/17/2008, -1/+3*****.
- JustinTX, on 07/17/2008, -0/+2I blame Digg's comment system. I submitted my comment, waited, was told it failed and that I should try it again, tried it again, was challenged with a captcha (I guess they think I'm not real... not that captchas have been demonstrated to provide such proof), answered it correctly, and presumably only left one comment.
Apparently the first was still in the ether and showed up later anyway.
Nothing is perfect and I don't really care that Digg's comment system needs work, but it does need work. - Fergy, on 07/17/2008, -1/+3How is it not safe for work? It's a monkey
- mahler, on 07/17/2008, -0/+2You're only thinking of the average frontpage articles..... but it's easy to configure Digg in such a way, that those stories will not be displayed for you as a used.
- mrsteveman1, on 07/17/2008, -1/+3double
- JJN2009, on 07/18/2008, -0/+2Its such a wonder that they can create their own Kernels/os's and such but still can't improve on the primitive HTML coding of their sites.......
- m3mn0n, on 07/17/2008, -1/+3CLI is easily accessible to the user. It is just not easily usable by most users.
- c3chris, on 07/17/2008, -1/+3dugg down for use of Chuck rather then Puffy. For shame, for shame. I think Linus has a bit more respect for the FreeBSD folks, no?
Fox news called - they were so impressed at the fact checking! - trpnblies7, on 07/17/2008, -0/+1Most funniest?
- pazimzadeh, on 07/18/2008, -0/+1lol
- HigherLogic, on 07/18/2008, -0/+1Which of the following is the easiest way to shutdown a computer:
1. Clicking a button that says "Turn off computer"
2. Opening up a CLI, typing "/sbin/shutdown -r now" and hitting the Enter key
Either way, my point was obviously missed. There's a reason why Linux has so far to go when it comes to being a great desktop OS, regardless of how I interpreted the quote. - adiyo011, on 07/17/2008, -1/+2Devil = Sucking yourself off?
Pff... - Rekzai, on 07/17/2008, -0/+1afraid for the person*
- DoubleHelix23, on 07/17/2008, -0/+1Linux was kind of being immature when he said that and should probably hold himself in a little more dignified position if he is going to be such a mentoring/leader figure to so many Linux developers. Just my two cents.
- Pundan, on 07/18/2008, -0/+1Is puffy the stoner one?
- koumed, on 07/19/2008, -0/+1Because of the devil's logo, the holy church in the Vatican city choose Linux. Now FreeBSD or OpenBSD or whatever, choose to make a monkey logo. :)
- DerangedPenguin, on 07/18/2008, -0/+1Well this is going to be interesting to watch this flame war burn. Kind of like my sisters back yard out in California but with out all the property damage. I can see the Micro$ofties laugh so hard the snot runs out their noses.
