You're living right not in competition. If you're on an island |
28 |
you compete with animals for food and water. If you're in a condo - hell, |
29 |
you know how many on this planet WISH to live in your house right now and |

And you belive that you're outside competition. It looks unreal. |
33 |
Gentoo is in competition with other distros - it's real and happens |
34 |
right now. |
