If you switch to Gentoo there will be no winter anymore :)

I'll most likely switch to Gentoo during the winter break.

If you switch to Gentoo there will be no winter anymore

You can't imagine how right you were. A few days ago I begun installing Gentoo on a virtual machine and got it running mostly yesterday in the evening. Today the temperature outside is 20°C (=the very definition of ideal room temperature) in the middle of winter, and just five days ago it was -15°C, and there were piles of snow all over the place. And there's not a single patch of snow to be found anywhere in the vicinity of my home now.

God bless warm and nice Christmas, to everyone. It must be the love between me and Portage that has warmed up the climate.

I must admit 20°C is better than -15°C Maybe I'll switch to gentoo next winter, not because i want it, but for sake of warm winter in europe

Gentoo - your personal global warming.

Gentoo - poor man's global warming.

P.S.: It has been "# USE="..." emerge gnome"ing for over 18 hours by now, still one third of packages left to emerge....

what about seti@home?

[natirips]

And as you have no doubt no doubted, it is still emerging gnome.... (yes I _am_ using both cores full @2GHz most of the time (-j3, fixed CPU speed to 2GHz, except it was 800MHz over night to reduce noise):)
