Rahovart

This is the event that leads to the summoning of Rahovart, one of the mod’s several bosses. When the event occurs, a grand arena will be built similar to Asmodeus before the battle begins. The track ‘Nobody Told Me About Id’ from Doom can be heard playing in the background as the arena constructs itself. As with the other bosses, make sure you’re far enough away from your house before you trigger this event!

dpkg

One of the few things elegant enough to escape the wrath of Linus Torvalds, dpkg is beautiful, simplistic, and self-contained. It does one thing and just one thing and that thing is installing/uninstalling packages. It works great in pipes, and its the epitome of good UNIX design principles.
I love dpkg except when it doesn't work, so I use aptitude which does a million things and does half of them correctly. Ah the joys of Linux.

sexclusion principle

When determining where to place electrons in atoms, three rules are generally used: the Pauli exclusion principle, the Aufbau principle, and Hund's rule. The Pauli exclusion principle, from which the pun is derived, states that no two electrons (or indeed any fermion) can occupy the same atomic state. Therefore, any electron orbital is limited to two electrons: one with a spin, and the other with a − spin. The Aufbau principle states that lower energy orbitals are occupied previous to high energy orbitals. Hund's rule states that electrons will try to fill orbitals individually, and only pair up when every orbital has a lone electron in it.

In the comic, electrons are being equated to people, and rooms (or couches) are equated to orbitals. The reverse of Hund's rule is then followed: people will try to pair up in a room first, and only when all the couples have done so will rooms be allocated to single people. The Pauli exclusion principle here means that only two people can occupy a room at a time (should those people be romantically involved). The Aufbau principle therefore means that more restful rooms are filled previous to less restful rooms.

The title text jokes about drunken party-goers, who ignore the Pauli principle perhaps out of inebriation. They then end up partying and sleeping together with many people in the living room, leaving the roommate stuck in the third desirable location, the hall lounge.
