A few years ago I've been with an ex-prostitute. She was one of the craziest girls I've ever met, and I truly loved her. It was a shock when she told me about her past, but... It helped me realize that there are no "better" or "worse" people.
That would explain my nickname. (:
Boeing 747, "In the Court of the Crimson King", "Led Zeppelin I", "Ummagumma", "Deep Purple", the Woodstock Festival, Monty Python's Flying Circus, last public performance of the Beatles, Sesame Street... Any others?
You know what? It works. Builds smoothly. Runs flawlessly. Now just gotta get Doom3. Damn it, I hate you. I wasn't supposed to ever touch mapping again, and not being able to run Radiant on Linux was what was keeping me sane. I'm an addict. Now I'm going to abandon all my other projects, quit my job, break up with my girlfriend, and spend next ten months doing an epic map.
Thanks
Anon is right, it's called CSG substract. And also, it is evil. I don't remember the exact reason why it was evil (I haven't done any mapping for quite a while and I forgot a lot of the theory), but generally on every mapping/modding forum everyone would tell you not to use it.
Drawing floors, walls, and ceilings by hand, no matter how painful may it seem compared to drawing just the inside and hitting the magic button, is the way to go. If you'd be modelling a wall that is visible from both sides (for example a building in an outdoor area which you can enter), you're going to put a little more effort to properly shaping the brushes at the corners anyway, as to avoid either overdraw or texture-caulk z-fighting in the editor (which looks ugly).
It's a shame that building GtkRadiant on linux is virtually impossible these days. Code rot - the project is like, dead. I've once managed to get it running on some another machine, but it broke since then.
Netbrick. You're a genius.
Take out the "net" and all that's left is a "brick".

Holy crap. I've just realised how incredibly old their civilisation had to be. TFS mentions 25.800 year cycles...
SMP FAQ.
Q: Does the number of processors in a SMP system need to be a power of two/divisible by two?
A: No.
Q: Does the number of processors in a SMP system...
A: Any number of CPUs/cores that is larger than one will make the system an SMP system*.
(* except when it's an asymmetrical architecture)
Q: How do these patterns (power of 2, divisible by 2, etc) of numbers of cores affect performance?
A: Performance depends on the architecture of the system. You cannot judge by simply looking at the number of cores, just as you can't simply look at MHz.
I would never trust a company to keep me healthy when it's most profitable for it to have as many people ill as possible. Therefore, I never take any meds.

Just test it out already!
$ python
>>> from commands import getouput as sh
>>> # i'm too lazy to write my own prime test function:
>>> def is_prime(n): return not bool(sh("factor %d" % n).split()[2:])
>>> # check a few integers to make sure it works:
>>> zip(xrange(10), map(is_prime, xrange(10)))
>>> maybe_primes = [(((i*10)+4)**2)+1 for i in xrange(20)]
>>> zip(maybe_primes, map(is_prime, maybe_primes))
That's what we have computers for.
