As a coaster?
you could just store everything on /dev/null. It's faster than xfs and only slightly less reliable.
Do you even lift?
These aren't the 'roids you're looking for.
OMG once you've tried the new malloc, you'll never go back to any "last gen" mallocs because this new one is like the shizzle. Seriously.

I downloaded RedHat 5.4 and the think still has a 2.0 kernel and what XFree86 3. Where'd everyone get theirs, Doc Brown?? Plz don't wrap your responses around rocks and throw them at my glass house on the lake.
I like how they circled back to the version numbers of 10 years ago. Ah, the good old days of kernel 2.0.36 and ext2. I remember the joy of getting my sound card working on that: "...and I pronounce Linux, Leenux".
