Re: karol breaks 20K

Wow! Hats off to you Karol. I like arch, not just as a distro, but because of community members such as yourself who contribute for the betterment of all. Thank you as well for all the glorious links you provide. Title of archivist well deserved.

Re: karol breaks 20K

20,000 posts in 2,109 days, almost 10 posts a day! big_smile

Found my error! 20,000 posts in 1,745 days, over 11 posts a day! big_smile

...Just think, another few years and maybe I'll be able to do math correctly!

I know what you're thinking did he only use the calculator with a precision less than 10 digits or did he use the computer sitting in front of him, with a precision of more than 10 digits.  Well, do I feel mathematical?  Well, do you geek?

No, what it means is that you have to keep up with Allan. By that I mean that when you make a mistake, you have to adjust the distro to work around it.

Re: karol breaks 20K

Karol,
As I posted elsewhere congratulations.  I also extend my thanks... a third of the time, you find things gone awry faster than all the moderators combined smile

Also, lilsirecho extends his kudos as well.
