The smile on the mans face enhanced. Alpine is a BusyBox/Linux distro he stated, although BusyBox doesn't contain GNU code unto itself, it is licensed under versions of the GNU General Public License, can only be compiled with GNU software, like gcc for example and if you follow the dependency trees, you'll find GNU software. He contained explaining that it is possible to turn windows into GNU/kWindows by installing GNU onto windows, but you should really use an OS that respects your freedom instead. He went on to state that even if he was wrong, he won't be wrong for long, as he's working on perfecting GNU/Hurd.
With a sickly wheeze, my life was ejected from my body and I was sent down to GNU/Hell for an special lesson as to why you don't call the GNU OS after a proprietary kernel.
