Columbus didn't really do much except prove himself right about the location of a landmass a certain distance away from Europe. It was the people who came after Columbus who did everything.
By 'utilities' I mean the 3000 daemons Fedora runs at startup time. The processes that don't do anything slow things down by taking up memory and CPU cycles. It's not unique to Gentoo to not run them but Gentoo is among the few distros that doesn't put tons of useless daemons up by default and in other distros it's an incredible chore to uninstall anything--I've tried many and even those distros that don't have RPM-hell such as Debian suck deeply when it comes to uninstallation, with the exception of Gentoo.
Your GP post mentioned Pentium processors, I mentioned that Intel sucks, because it does, and AMD is better. Your inability to recognize that suggests that you are still using Mandrake and that it is clouding your higher brain functions.
From a purely technical standpoint, these 'children protection' things are total bullshit. I remember faking my age all the time before I was 13 to get around those acts.
And then the jock ends up bald, fat, and working at a grocery store while the geek makes a startup and it gets bought by Google, then the geek laughs all the way to the bank.
I haven't seen a laptop that isn't premade so I don't think that counts. Although you get special geekpoints if you find a company that sells them with no OS on them so you don't have to pay the Microsoft Fine.
Gentoo isn't fast because you can compile things -O2. Gentoo is fast because you aren't running every single fucking utility that you don't need by default, pardon my French. And Intel processors suck.;)
Eventually, we're going to move to processors that dynamically create MicroCores (TM), as they function. MicroCores will exist in another dimension such that they can endlessly multiply without taking up any space.
They are, however, countries where the legislators don't seem to keep up with the developments in electronic distribution.
For example, 'Tubeland' USA. Okay, that's mostly just Ted Stevens, but the fact that seniority gives you more power in the Senate is a really bad thing. It gives you Ted Stevens.

That was the point of the question.
If you think Penny Arcade is unfunny you've never seen any of Maddox's work. Penny Arcade is occasionally funny while Maddox is consistently stupid.
Well, I have Prior Art. Actually, I'm a Prior, so patent law doesn't apply to me.

I'm a teenager right now and that's only mildly funny. Maddox is also barely funny.
Martial arts skills can't. There's a reason that most martial arts weapons were originally MacGyvered from farming tools.
Ten thousand disappointing situations, when all you need is an actual irony...
Even if he wasn't he couldn't--and wouldn't if he has a brain--save Jack Thompson.

Postcolumbian? Do you mean post-Columbine? Or something else?

If it weren't for the Senatorial emphasis on seniority, Ted Stevens wouldn't be one of the most influential members of the Senate.
How many times were those translated? A whole lot.
He could just be a Time Lord, you know. They don't age either--they regenerate. It's the curse of the Time Lords.
America Online United Kingdom...isn't that an oxymoron?
Jaffa, kill the shol'va!
