I ran it and followed a documentation to install Void Linux and now it runs so much smoother!

I come from a MCU background and feel the same way. Linux kernel is for consumer level stuff. For serious machinery, I choose a real-time OS like FreeaRTOS. Less code, and more low level code makes it easier to review, maintain, and have less chance to break.
crontab -e
, right? 🤭
If a noob follows this command without checking, they deserve such a lesson.
Just saying.
Customising the kernel just means something works properly in rare hardware configurations like you described. It’s something which he who uses the general hardware (like an X86 desktop) can’t easily see or understand because the ‘stock’ kernel is already working properly.
I honestly don’t know why you were downvoted so much. You could have get very different responses in a different forum.
I’ll give you one reason for using Gentoo: option of no systemd.
Gentoo is one of the few distros which still offer a systemdless setup given its nature of high configurability. You can tell the system-wide config file to exclude systemd support in every package it attemps to compile.
I hope you or anyone who just enjoys their linux machine running fine and happily, now be able to see what freedom can mean in the open source universe. Cheers.
Most likely. There are distros that just works namely Mint. Follow the official guide and the computer is ready for use in less than an hour. And ‘for the last twenty years’? I just don’t believe it.
I have been purposefully avoiding Intel for the last six years. AMD CPUs are great if you are not stressed on ultra low power consumption. More threads, less money. AMD GPU drivers are open source and well integrated into the kernel, unlike NVidia’s proprietary driver, which I will never go back to.
Have you tried any other distro with XFCE? I am running Gentoo and Void and both are fine.
Why? I am running XFCE and didn’t have any problem using an external monitor.
The father didn’t believe the boy’s claim and dared him to demonstrate exiting Vim without pulling out the power cable that night.
If you don’t like systemd but still want to use Debian, try Devuan.
What do you see in similar between Arch and Gentoo? One installs binary packages and one compiles from source; one has near no customisability in its packages and one customise the hell out of them.
Rust isn’t mentioned in the article at all.

Man, this became so bad in the last five years or so.
Just bought a digital drawing tablet from a manufacturer who claim their products have Linux support. Plugged it in and went to their download lage. Of course, there would not be a link to their GitHub project and instead I got a .deb and a .rpm, which is totally useless to me because my system is neither Debian/Ubuntu nor even glibc.
Generally that is not a concern because regular users won’t be able to
rm
anything else other than those in his own $HOME.Another thing I want to say is, command line is for careful users. If someone is careless, they should create a wrapper around
rm
, or just use a FM.
