Because I want a usable computer, not a useless OS that enlarges my e-peen.

Proc is too weak. The selling point of gentoo is recompiling often, right? That's difficult on a gen 1 core i5. I run arch instead for binary packages with similar customization.

>>53459771
Why would you when you can run Arch?

"Gentoo includes installation recipes for a number of nonfree programs in its primary package system."

so why install something that i have no clue on how to install by myself when i have this comfy, free/libre GNU/Linux distro. ?

RMS does not post on 4chan.Although he has done some interviews.

Do people on this board that use Gentoo actually take the time to compile their own kernels like you're supposed to with Gentoo, or they just use the stock one? From what I've seen, if you aren't compiling your own kernel when on Gentoo, it's basically a glorified Arch that takes an eternity to install each app because you gotta compile it first.

my fucking 8gb pendrive wont boot i tried unetbooting, rufus, usb linux installer
literally spent 8 hours trying to install a shitty linux distro
i guess my pen is broken idk
>>
>>53460710
you have to compile a kernel with gentoo in any case and for most use cases, gentoo-sources or hardened are the best options.

>>53460620
Retard

>>53460710
I did genkernel all
Feels good man. Compiling gives a pretty good boost for speed in each app. proper CFLAGS are a must tho.

>it's basically a glorified Arch
use arch if you want, but take your shitty opinions elsewhere

BSD did ports better.
