The cool kids' stylesheet is no longer gzipped because Konqueror can't handle such modern technology. That's gonna be at least another 2 kB of transfer... every day!
Speaking of Konqueror, I had to compile it to test whether it worked:
root@frankie:~ # time emerge -uv kde ... real 599m48.662s user 534m17.338s sys 63m44.243s
...And that's why I don't use KDE. Anything that takes almost ten hours to compile on an Athlon XP 2600+ with a gig of RAM is far too complicated for window management.
And the "stupid kids" situation turns out to be stupider and funnier than I'd thought, and in entirely different ways. Unfortunately, I'm wholly unable to discuss the new drama, regardless of how funny I might find it. Stupid professional responsibility.
