Tidal stresses would have long since ripped you into tiny pieces.

No, no, that's what he wears when he's playing J. Edgar Hoover with his boyfriend.

Wherever you are, it's always something local with only one outlet. Fourth and Sea or Fresh Freeze or Mom's Burger Bar or some such.

No. It reflects on the application of critical thinking to topics other than Linux.

I am very well paid. I like making my own coffee. I don't have a gardener, because I like gardening. I would rather have a root canal and a colonoscopy at the same time with no anesthetic than try to fix Unity. Accounting for my time in my work life and my personal life are two very different things.

That was my point. I run Mandriva with KDE.

Time is money, and $120.00 is about an hour of my time. I'm pretty sure that I can't fix Unity in an hour.

Absolutely! Loan them to students who need them. There is no better use.

Yes it should be. As soon as someone comes up with some repeatable, publicly observable evidence for things that do "not necessarily follow currently known physical and biological laws" or that "quantify the basic concept of vital energy in the human body", I will pay attention. So far in my life of over 60 years, I haven't seen any, and I have looked. And, while we're on the subject, why is shit like the GP always posted AC?

Since Professor Farnsworth's pronouncements of "Good News Everyone!" are inevitably followed by alien invasion, robot revolts, radiation poisoning of the masses, and diseased mutant rats chewing on your testicles, I think I will sit this one out.

IANAL, but I can tell you that most of them spend the first ten years, at least, after law school working 60+ hours a week. Most CEOs have done that for 20-30 years to get where they are. Just because something is less physically demanding than carrying a hod doesn't mean it isn't hard work.

But Slackware has always come with man pages. Is there supposed to be more?

"The thought police would get him just the same. He had committed--would have committed, even if he had never set pen to paper--the essential crime that contained all others in itself. Thoughtcrime, they called it. Thoughtcrime was not a thing that could be concealed forever. You might dodge successfully for a while, even for years, but sooner or later they were bound to get you." - Nineteen Eighty-Four
