Proverbs, aphorisms, quotations (English) by Linux fortune

Absurdity, n.:
        A statement or belief manifestly inconsistent with one's own opinion.

> valerie kernel: mtrr: your CPUs had inconsistent variable MTRR settings
> valerie kernel: mtrr: probably your BIOS does not setup all CPUs

It indicates your bios authors can't read standards. Thats a quite normal
state of affairs, so common that the kernel cleans up after them

        - Alan Cox on linux-kernel
