So tell me, what do you call the object drawn in this picture, taken from a popular Linux operating system?

Say my name.
It’s a file.
Everything is a file!!
This mouse? Believe it or not, file.
/dev/input/mouse0or whatever number you may have if for some reason you have more of them. Plus the always present/dev/input/miceshared between all mouse devices.cat
/dev/input/mouse0
Do people actually get mad over that? Why?
I feel like the only people who actually care are the type who wrap their entire personality around which OS they use
“I use arch btw”
i use arch btw, and i call them folders (btw)
its kinda pointless making a big deal about what people call it as long as everyone is understood.
the beauty of linux is choice, theres loads of options and distros and software, who cares if you choose to call it a folder or directory?
