Skinner: Well, I was wrong. The lizards are a godsend. Lisa: But isn't that a bit short-sighted? What happens when we're overrun by lizards? Skinner: No problem. We simply unleash wave after wave of Chinese needle snakes. They'll wipe out the lizards. Lisa: But aren't the snakes even worse? Skinner: Yes, but we're prepared for that. We've lined up a fabulous type of gorilla that thrives on snake meat. Lisa: But then we're stuck with gorillas! Skinner: No, that's the beautiful part. When wintertime rolls around, the gorillas simply freeze to death.
This little thing has got better hardware specs than my desktop.

Let's see. A day of installing software versues three days of compiling. There are people out there with "older" computers (My 400mhz Celeron is perfectly fine, thank you). Gentoo isn't the end all savior of the operating systems world.
Mod me down, as heaven forbid we should never criticize Gentoo...

Isn't it enough that the US is screwing over the rest of the world? Now we have to go and take over space too.
Won't somebody think of the martians?
And then they claim that their loss of sales is the direct result of file sharing.
After all, everyone loves the RIAA's content, right?
When do I get my 4D Hard Disk?
I don't think that I'd trust Windows to feed a pet. Not a pet that I cared for, at least. One BSOD and your cat will slowly starve to death...
