And you actually think that broken code is released without someone noticing it?
I highly doubt it. And welcome to Computerhope, Mr Bisquit  ;)

But did you know that Bill Gates wants to lower the earths population by 10%-15%.   :o

Quote
If we do a really great job on new vaccines, health care, reproductive health services (abortion), we could lower the world's population by perhaps 10 or 15 per cent. - Bill Gates

I won't support anyone who wants that!

Huh? China is working on a plan for 0 population growth. In that context zero growth means the the number of young children is equal to the number of very old people. Or something like that.

Exactly. Most of the worlds population growth is in third world countries where the <LAST> thing those countries need is more people.

Zero population growth means that parents have no more than two children.  In other words, two children to replace two adults who will age and die.  Thus, no increase in population.  Of course, if some parents have more than two and others have less than two, it's the average that matters.

Getting off topic here, aren't we.    :)

Well. the main theme of this thread is about selecting a Linux bistro.>distro.  If you pick the correct version of Linux for your  family, the population growth will slow down. Your children will be busy and have plenty to do. The will be less included to leave home and beget or begot. Otherwise, bored children  start procreation early. So selection of the right software can impact the future of the world. Please choose family software responsibly. It has been stated elsewhere that pornographic games contribute to promiscuous adolescent behavior.  :o
