TS - very well spotted, it is Greek but modern and not ancient - I worked in Athens for a while and my clan had a house on an island called Patmos

It is a little rude (only in a Monty Pytonesque kind of way than anything vernacular or obscene) so I wont translate it save that it involves sea urchins (achinos) and sharp sticks (souvlaki) and for your information, 'vathia' means deep

GNU. It's another self-referential acronym: Gnu's Not Unix. Basically it's a reference to Linux.

(Disclaimer: I know it's more complicated than that, but I can't remember the details, before all you Linux gurus start beating me with your sandals.)
