Re: Cooker on my 32bit fubared on update

Sounds like you'd be better off running stable, if you don't have time for the breakage. I've been installing the alpha/betas, adding cooker sources, but only occasionally booting to that installation, when time is bountiful. 2010 x86_64 is reliable, as I've come to expect.

Re: The rank system

It is the only Norwegian I ever learned. :oops: My Dad's folks were from Norway. Once or twice Mom made Christmas cookies that were long, thin, rather plain pastries sprinkled with powder sugar, iirc. (Almost 50 yrs. ago!) Also, iirc, we were told they were called 'fattigmann' and that it meant 'fat...

Re: Thank you Microsoft

I grew up in the '60s in Sunnyvale, Santa Clara county, California, USA, where is now 'Silicon Valley'. I didn't get my first PC until early 2000 but I have observed some perspective about Gates.
