judging from the expression they just got to the vim section
I don't understand what all the hate is about. Vim was, for me, very easy to learn. Just a few flags and so on.
Building Vim from source is pretty damn easy. cd vim && make && sudo make install. Just need to be careful not to run it by accident, or you'll be restarting Linux From Scratch from scratch.
Don't be afraid: Debian will make you cozy and warm.
Debian? Did you see the title of that book? "Linux from Scratch". Clearly its a Gentoo guide book.
Clearly it's an LFS guide book... LFS isn't Gentoo.
Clearly, it all comes to Debian.
The face is priceless.
Yeah they got to the section on Nvidia drivers.
Thats a sysadmin expression for sure. He has a glorious future ahead of him, and many sleepness nights.
Then a fast follower:
🎶You first extract GCC from the sources directory🎶
I'd like a Romeo & Juliet story where one house uses VI and the other Emacs.
We're only in the second week, so there's not much I've learned yet, but I'm taking a Linux class (for cybersec, so we're using Kali VMs), and I'm honestly excited. I already know some basics due to using Fedora as my daily driver, but I never took the time to properly learn Linux, so this class will help me to be power user and maybe fix my own shit more (Or at least troubleshoot better).
We did open vi for a short bit and yes, we did not know how to exit 😅
Babies first Distro.
And when 2 repositories love each other very much…
They fall out over a minor implementation detail and get forked.
Marital breakups always end with someone getting forked.
If you like this book, you should also check out: "The cat in Redhat" and "ripgrep and PAM".
Oh yeah ..... this is Arch by the way
LFS is the final boss. It comes even after you beat Gentoo.
Gentoo is easy and user friendly
Yeah, it just it might take a long time depending on your hardware. Stage 3 tarball installation took more than 2 days on my netbook (years ago). I don't want to imagine compiling LibreOffice on that hardware. :)
You can download binary blobs nowadays... Firefox, LibreOffice without any delays.
That's actually nice to know. Though if I'm gonna use Gentoo, I'm gonna compile everything.But I wouldn't do that without a really beefy machine too.
It really doesnt take as long as you would think. I did it on a chromebook. Kernel and webrowser are the only things that take awhile and its only a few hours. When i did it on my gaming desktop it was barely any time.
I actually haven't tried Gentoo on my main machine for a really long time so I can only guess. With 6 cores 12 threads it should be fast enough I think. Gotta admit I'm surprised that it does that well on a Chromebook.
oh no compiling kernel and webbrowser on a chromebook took over a day and was incredibly painful. Sorry for the confusion.
No problem! Kinda disappointed but they're Chromebooks, even if it was an Intel one, it's still slow. Should've suspected. :)
I have Ryzen 3700X and it's doing fine... not to mention I have a lot of uptime, and it can build on the background.
Oh the temptation! Nowadays I'm actually tempted by Void but it seems my compiling times would not be bad with Gentoo either. Though currently I have no reason to change my setup unless it's severely broken but I gotta keep these in mind.
I skipped Arch, went straight to Gentoo with OpenRC and dwm.
You can't convince me to go back to binary blobs.
I was always on the lazy side of the spectrum and never really had good enough machines until recently so Gentoo was always too much wait time for me and I never really used it on my main machine. I like compiling my own stuff and I do have a good enough machine now, so exploring Gentoo again might be my next step, sadly I don't have time for OS-level changes currently.
Figured from the expression.
I'm a big fan of the "For Babies" series. Picked up Evolution, Quantum Mechanics and Organic Chemistry for my daughter.
Hint: :q!
