They share some inspiration. Same with Linux/Unix confusion.
About 15 minutes in a terminal trying to do Linux'y things are you get completely disillusioned.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Stop posting Lunduke stuff. This dude sucks and has a long history of sucking.
I've come across this person's face randomly but know nothing about them. Could you help the lazy and tell me why he sucks?
Um...phrasing!
Are we still doing phrasing?
Lmfao. My fucking lead was arguing with me the other day how Linux is Unix. I just said ok after I saw that it was going nowhere.
Been there, had that conversation.
