Russian presidential debate:
UTC is expressed using positive or negative offset from IAT
UTC is timezone too. It has leap seconds. IAT is atomic time. It is perfect.
True. It also had binary packages for huge packages like firefox and libreoffice for a very long time.
True, network boot is not best example. Shared /usr is much better one. For example if you are school that wants to buy 100 thin clients for very cheap.
on the basis of evergreening IP laws (a fair complaint, imo)
Hard to disagree. Nature isn’t something to be patented.
And use bigger bandaid. Meanwhile initramfs and split-usr would greatly complement each other.
Think about booting over network. Or having /usr on another drive. Including even network drive. Think about dumb terminals(wrong cetury) thin clients. For example they can use small disk to quickly boot wihout downloading kernel and initramfs and use NFS for /usr and /home.
I am sure Win7 installer has it and if, I didn’t get early dementia, Win10 installer has too.
Personal experience. Go search for linux users among football fans. Both footballs. You won’t find as often.
As a heavy gamer, never say those words 😂
Well, recommendation isn’t based only on being gamer. But I noticed heavy gamers tend to more proactive in learning how their system works and tweak their system to their needs. I got one converted into Arch user. It’s like heavy gamers have attention and initiative.
and as IT student, this is really interesting.
It was interesting even to some school students. I think I first Installed Gentoo somewhere in 6th grade.
How well do containers
Should be fine. Long time ago I tried to use lxc. It worked.
virtual machines
KVM works really well, I didn’t try Xen.
and flatpaks work?
Didn’t need, didn’t try. There is nothing preventing them from working.
I was thinking about learning self hosting, emacs, and xmonad on a pi4.
I am running Gentoo 24/7 on noname chinese TV box on Allwinner A10 with 1GB of RAM. I wrote device tree myself and compiled mainline u-boot. Most of packages I precompile on my desktop with crossdev, that has exactly same make.conf. Same for Rock64 SBC, but it’s sitting powered off. Also I did small modifications to devicetree for it as well. I can answer some qutsions.
TV box runs tor node 24/7 and private search of fimfarchive.
I’m not sure why you think snaps are snappy. They aren’t.
It is pun. Snaps are bloaty and not snappy.
It was counterpoint to “send you in a ring without actually telling me how to install”. It does.
I also agree that installing it is rather lengthy.
Disclamer: last time I used OpenSUSE was very long time ago. Probably somewhere in 2018.
When I switched back to Gentoo, Gentoo had more packages in base repo, was more configurable and easier to fix and felt more convenient to me(especially for development). Also easier on resources in casual use. It was important to me since at the time my system had very small amount of RAM, while I wanted to host minecraft server with many mods and play on it with friends. Installing cross-compilers is very easy with crossdev. And I think there were problems with having multiple versions of gcc installed. The only downside I can think of is slower update process(especially compiling firefox/chromium/libreoffice/rust), but in return you get the system, which if breaks, you know how to fix it.
Would I recommend Gentoo to everyone who wants to install Linux on their own regular x86 computers and be what people call a regular user and doesn’t want to understand how system works? Rather no.
Would I recommend Gentoo for someone who wants to install Linux for their granny and already knows Linux or even has Gentoo? Rather yes, stereotypical granny doesn’t care about distro, she only needs browser and working sound.
Would I recommend Gentoo for any kind of developers(except webdevs, they are separate species)? Absolutely.
For gamers? It is one of reasons I choose Gentoo.
For tinkerers? You know the answer.
For wierd ARM/MIPS/RISC-V/ELBRUS computer? Very yes.
