Has the timeline been changed by better archaeology or dating, or reclassification of remains? when I was at school (only 2 decades ago, in the UK) I was taught that the last Neanderthals died out around the time of the construction of the Pyramids in Egypt, no more than 6000 years ago
Just asked my sis (who sports a B.A. in prehistoric archaeology )... according to her, you must've had a very strange teacher -- historically, the figure for "how long ago did they die out" has been creeping down as more and more recent specimen were found. At no time did people think it was just 6ka ago.
Neanderthal were still plentiful in Europe around 7K to 5K BC

Might be. Alternatively, it may also let more kids survive or make the kids more aggressive towards others, or... whatever, we dont seem to know really.
... also, I use different distros for different purposes.
Ignoring that, this is what my timeline looks, sorted by first use of each distro:
fli4l suse gentoo ubuntu debian arch
... or so I misread the headline at first glance.
... the answer depends on "what do want it to you use for".
I hate those polls when there's no nonsense option you can choose to say "I hate this poll".
What do you want to imply?
That, somehow, he who does not know how to debug the kernel should not play with bit operations?
Something like that?
Or, that we should stop researching the structure of the universe, and instead focus on what we usually do, which is making war, screwing other people and post photos of our dicks on teh internet?
