lol, I have seen my fair share of truckers tea before

Isn’t that what’s next to the chair?

Well since your building a computer your more tech savvy then most people. I have been using Linux for about 20 years now. If you pick something like Linux Mint or others make sure you have a solid /home partition and migrate to what’s ever distro you like most. It allows you to move around and not lose your data.

Worst case you do some distro hopping for a little bit and then install Windows and there is nothing wrong with that. I have a windows laptop for the very reason that Windows works best with certain apps just like I use a Mac for video editing

I always lol at this picture but also bought my first gun at a Walmart. Did a lot of hunting with my dad and grandfather with that gun and it put some food in the table. Also amazing knowing where your food came from and having that connection

So what is in it?

You using slapt-get for updates?

New KDE brought the cube back!

Had an issue many many years ago with TW where X11 was completely broken on my system. I just did a btrfs roll back to prior to the update and then updated like a month later

Wish I could be outside but this 100+ degree weather is bullshit

Yeah……… I wish someone would port it or come out with something similar. Been using Blackbox/Fluxbox since the 2000’s

+1 for Fluxbox!

It’s such an underrated WM

My New York liberal partners path. Had a few scares in the city we live in from lock-ins and just the general shit that happens in a city. It never hurts to have them so long as you know how to use them. So please shoot and be a responsible gun owner this includes locking them up and having proper safety measures in place especially if you have little ones

I miss having Marc’s such a cheap place to shop

Opensuse Micro

Sales, he should get a fat bonus from that kind of a quarter

Everything gets compiled at some point to be able to run.

Lot of people running large gentoo server farms will compile and run binary’s. Even Gentoo is officially supporting binary packages for their stable branch. Package set is ever growing right now too

Has had Musl for awhile here is the install stage https://www.gentoo.org/downloads/#amd64-advanced . Bunch of docs on their wiki too. Gentoo is a rolling release you are correct but there is testing and stable branches. Stable branch is enterprise production ready. I know of a few hardware vendors that are using a custom gentoo builds under the hood. One of them is a big name storage array company that people spend hundreds if not millions on their arrays.

My experience with Void was hyper rolling release . You get things quickly kind of like Arch.

Gentoo stable runs a little bit older software for stability sake. With that being said you can mix and match stable with testing. I would assume there is some gotchas but I have not run into any yet. I am running the testing branch just for KDE software right now to have the latest and greatest KDE but a super stable base.

Definitely something to take a look at if you’re a more advanced user. I am coming back to Gentoo after about 15 years off and just loving it. Compile times are not that bad with new hardware. My Intel NUC I am running on is crushing it. I remember X taking like a week to compile back in like 2003 lol
