Awww how cute!!! A McChicken Nugget in dog form!

All jokes aside what a freaking cutie! 11 out of 10 would pet and treat

This is a weird neckbeard meme

I wonder if that’s a new feature. IIRC the issue was with vdevs in ZFS in the pool expansion. I am a FreeBSD user and do have some jails running. I do like ZFS a lot it’s way more mature then BTRFS on the Linux

ZFS is a no go for me due to not being able to add larger disk and then expand my pool size on the fly. MDADM and LVM+XFS have treated me well the past few years. I started with an 12tb pool and now over 50 tb pool

Holy cow these are way cheaper than anything I have seen before. I am in a RAID 5 setup so if a disk or two dies I am okay.

lol, just try one for a few months and then switch at some point. At one point in my life I was switch distros every two weeks to a months with some stable distro for 3-6 months. But it was an exciting time in 2004-201. Lot of variety back then on how a distro worked

Whichever one you chose is the wrong one!

Well since your building a computer your more tech savvy then most people. I have been using Linux for about 20 years now. If you pick something like Linux Mint or others make sure you have a solid /home partition and migrate to what’s ever distro you like most. It allows you to move around and not lose your data.

Worst case you do some distro hopping for a little bit and then install Windows and there is nothing wrong with that. I have a windows laptop for the very reason that Windows works best with certain apps just like I use a Mac for video editing

You using slapt-get for updates?

I just treat my systems like cattle not pets. Get out of line and I will kill ya and bring a fresh copy online

Hopefully you don’t lose power or something else bad happens or there goes your data

lol right! I think that’s Windows Vista’s logo too not Windows 7

Actually something I never dug into. But does logrotate no longer work? I have a bunch of disk space these days so I would not notice large log files

Had an issue many many years ago with TW where X11 was completely broken on my system. I just did a btrfs roll back to prior to the update and then updated like a month later

Yeah……… I wish someone would port it or come out with something similar. Been using Blackbox/Fluxbox since the 2000’s

+1 for Fluxbox!

It’s such an underrated WM

Everything gets compiled at some point to be able to run.

Lot of people running large gentoo server farms will compile and run binary’s. Even Gentoo is officially supporting binary packages for their stable branch. Package set is ever growing right now too

Has had Musl for awhile here is the install stage https://www.gentoo.org/downloads/#amd64-advanced . Bunch of docs on their wiki too. Gentoo is a rolling release you are correct but there is testing and stable branches. Stable branch is enterprise production ready. I know of a few hardware vendors that are using a custom gentoo builds under the hood. One of them is a big name storage array company that people spend hundreds if not millions on their arrays.

My experience with Void was hyper rolling release . You get things quickly kind of like Arch.

Gentoo stable runs a little bit older software for stability sake. With that being said you can mix and match stable with testing. I would assume there is some gotchas but I have not run into any yet. I am running the testing branch just for KDE software right now to have the latest and greatest KDE but a super stable base.

Definitely something to take a look at if you’re a more advanced user. I am coming back to Gentoo after about 15 years off and just loving it. Compile times are not that bad with new hardware. My Intel NUC I am running on is crushing it. I remember X taking like a week to compile back in like 2003 lol

Gentoo does 😉
