How long has Olympic Ski Jumping had judges awarding style points?! ("Always?", she asks with bitter cynicism)

Judges in a nationally-representative sport mean possible corruption/favouritism (hello, Eurovision voting blocks!), and really, who gives a damn if your jump technique isn't "stylish" as long as you go a long way? It's the snow equivalent of longjump, not a gymnastic floor routine. Beautiful technique should be a happy bonus to excellent competition, not something that could lose you a placing.

The last hour or so of misery shall henceforth be known as "For God's sake don't completely delete shit in the synaptic package manager when you don't know what it does, particularly when you don't have a system restore point/backup. Just--
Don't.
Also maybe do not listen to random people on the intertubes until you know the ins and outs of Xandros."

O little eee, never leave me again!
