jock

A jock is someone who's athletic and is "popular". Jocks usually despise nerds and nerds usually despise jocks.
God those jocks are so stupid.

CLI

Command Line Interface

What all computers were before GUIs came about. CLI is an interface that only uses text. Some stupid people and groups (like micro$oft, apple and linspire) try to get rid of CLI taking a lot of power away from users. CLI is still used a lot on UNIX and UNIX-like OSs.

If you want to see what's so great about CLI, use GNU Bash on a GNU/Linux system.
GNU Bash is a great CLI.

GPL

GNU General Public License

A copyleft free software license. That means that anyone can do anything with something under the GPL except deny others' rights given by them by the GPL. Also the GPL requires that all copyright notices and notices that refer to the GPL stay.
Save a GNU, use the GPL.

I <3 the GPL.
