Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
  •  

    Please report posts and comments that break these rules!


    Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community -- even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don't fork-bomb your computer.

    12 hours, yes? My first Gentoo install took like 3 times that for all the things stupid me wanted to have.

    So I take it you did not install OpenOffice?

    I think there were binary packages for it and Firefox, I wasn't completely unprepared.

    Relatable. Me: wants musl libc and to build stuff with clang (so that it's not gnu/gentoo). Firefox: doesn't want neither muls, nor clang due to some god knows how old bug.

    Even under FreeBSD and OpenBSD they use GCC for things requiring it, which kinda highlights Gentoo philosophy's problem in this regard. Setting USE flags mostly globally seems like a cool idea, but when for customization it gets down to setting them for every package - one could as well use FreeBSD ports.
