    You gotta love slashdot.

    You can post almost any question, and someone will answer it precisely and politely.

    Well, usually politely. :)

  3. Re:Of course gentoo by BrookHarty · · Score: 0, Redundant

    Sounds like the typical slashdot joke, I just finished compiling 3.2.3 on gentoo! But I did actually.

    Only took 2 days for me to compile 3.2.3 last Friday on my sparc sunblade 150, but it did compile. I normally start a large compile on Friday when I'm away from work for the weekend.

    Too bad theres no gentoo pre-compiled ports for sparc64's.

    A plan for the improvement of spelling in the English language
    By Mark Twain

    For example, in Year 1 that useless letter "c" would be dropped to be replased either by "k" or "s", and likewise "x" would no longer be part of the alphabet. The only kase in which "c" would be retained would be the "ch" formation, which will be dealt with later. Year 2 might reform "w" spelling, so that "which" and "one" would take the same konsonant, wile Year 3 might well abolish "y" replasing it with "i" and Iear 4 might fiks the "g/j" anomali wonse and for all.

    Generally, then, the improvement would kontinue iear bai iear with Iear 5 doing awai iwth useless double konsonants, and Iears 6-12 or so modifaiing vowlz and the rimeiniing voist and unvoist konsonants. Bai Iear 15 or sou, it wud fainali bi posibl tu meik ius ov thi ridandant letez "c", "y" and "x" -- bai now jast a memori in the maindz ov ould doderez -- tu riplais "ch", "sh", and "th" rispektivili.
