On my linux box:
$ kill
kill: usage: kill [-s sigspec | -n signum | -sigspec] pid | jobspec … or kill -l [sigspec]
$ /bin/kill
Usage:
kill pid … Send SIGTERM to every process listed.
kill signal pid … Send a signal to every process listed.
kill -s signal pid … Send a signal to every process listed.
kill -l List all signal names.
kill -L List all signal names in a nice table.
kill -l signal Convert between signal numbers and names.
So no. Linux is not evil.
You’re not using sh, that’s why it does not react that way :)
It doesn’t matter what shell you’re using. ‘kill’ is a separate program. It’s what’s giving you back the message, not the shell.
If you compile gentoo with the offensive use flag it will say some funny stuff.
This just seem a bit more optimistic thanks to command-not-found on Ubuntu.
$ love
The program ‘love’ is currently not installed. You can install it by typing:
sudo apt-get install love
[morgan@archlinux64 Mad Skills Motocross Demo]$ kill balmer
sh: kill: balmer: arguments must be process or job IDs
Linux is the most UNEVIL system there is.
What other OS has caters for minorities ?
I.e Welsh in KDE and linux also caters for discordianism – ddate …
lovely joke! haha
but I think it could be extended to Unix environment in general, right?
cheers!
I Lol’d.

Agreed 100% OP.
Linux is for basement dwellers and code monkeys. Just take a look at your local Linux User Group.

Guys, this website is probably hosted by a Linux server, is it evil or not we are all on it
Seriously, I tried those commands on linux, too.
Here’s the output:
user@lx2:/# love
You didn’t tell who to love. usage: love [name]
user@lx2:/# happiness
May a lot of happiness be with you.
user@lx2:/# peace
I’ll do my very best.
user@lx2:/# kill
explorer.exe not found. So what do want to kill?
It seems you’re using the wrong distribution…
