Subject: [gentoo-user] Linux and the Higgs
Date: Thu, 5 Jul 2012 16:52:23 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120705165223.7a9ab707.frank.peters@comcast.net> (raw)

Linux was used to find the Higgs:

http://www.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/w2ly6/new_boson_found_by_linux/

I am not really surprised, but what does disturb me is that the distros
used in the effort were mainly "Scientific Linux and Ubuntu."

Where was Gentoo?

Somebody had better counsel these scientists to be better able to discern
the quality of a Linux distro.
