  • Gentoo is very much like an manual transmission. If you ask anybody that drives manual they will say 1 of 2 things “i like it because it gives me control” or “i use manual because i always have”

    I love gentoo as playing around and trying stuff out. My personal recommendation is use ZFS or btrfs for a file system and have subvolumes. So if you get so lost in the rabbit hole you can climb back up.

    If your philosophy is" stable and mine!" Gentoo is for you. You can build a distro, with all the packages you want and once your done if you decide to update every month and dont care a whole lot about bleeding edge. It will work really well, it you want bleeding edge, you can have portage use ustable packages with a stable system. But you really must know what your doing or you WILL BREAK STUFF.

    I ran gentoo for 6 months then went to debian, its a great learning tool for understanding how linux works under the hood. I would also recommended systemd over openrc. Its not that openrc is bad, its just alot of extra work for simple things to work.

    Gentoo to me is more a messing around on a spare computer distro, than a production computer. Not that it cant be production, but im personally very lazy when i just want to use my personal pc. 6331

    My uncle loves google dictate and uses Gemmia. He asks it questions alot but knows its wrong alot of the time and i swear he spends more time trying to get it to give him the right answer then it would to just punch it into a search engine.




  • The joke was comparing a “secure brower” to TOR, which i know. And for context i think privacydotml deleted it? I dont understand why? I didnt violate the community or instance guidelines instance.

    I was simply trying to make it entertaining to read. I know the tor browser is actually secure, and uses onion routing and the ladder is a browser for taking college quizes.
