why did you install gentoo?
>>
But anon, I did not install Gentoo. I value my time, so I just installed Ubuntu Gnome and everything works out of the box.

I believed that open source software should be released as source code.

But then I found the beauty of OpenBSD; I have not used Linux since.

BSD/Nothing werks, or as I have been calling it since 2004, BSD+Nothing werks

I installed gentoo because I was trying out different distros. Didn't care for it and switched back to Debian.
>>
>>54363870
I wanted to know what it was capable of for myself. I was pleasantly surprised..
I built Linux from Scratch because I wanted to know what an OS made up of entirely my own choices would be like. I was sorely disappointed.

For fun. It wasn't that hard, but I won't use it as a daily driver.

LMFAO

The main reason I installed it was just to see if I could. Once I started using it I've never felt the need to go to another distro. I know it sounds stupid but everything "just works." The setup time is long compared to other distros but the maintenance is easy. Portage is the nicest package manager I've ever used.

>>54363870
Because aptitude nuked my system just for wanting 32bit libs and 64bit libs.

/g/ told me to

The bitches. I did it for the Bitches.

Tired of asking shit and having the response
>install gentoo
Suddenly all my threads were 3 posts
I realize that 95% of the posters here don't have any answers/skills and the other 5% are too busy posting in desktop and programming threads

>mfw I asked about NOC dhcp traffic on my router and a retard told me to call tech support to solve my problem
>>
>>54367152
We're not your tech support, how hard is that to understand? We don't help you because we don't want to.
>>
>>54367174
questions != tech support

keep your hate at work tier 1
>>
>>54367152

you need to word things in a way that tricks anons into answering your question, otherwise you'll just get trolled
>>
>>54363870
i prefer everything else but its the one without systemd right? what do i win?
>>
>>54367215
So tired of:
I think X is awesome. Prove me wrong.
or
Person X is on suicide watch.

Can't just say, what does everyone think of the new humble bundle book collection? Might be time I let the millennials have their site.

>>54367288
