Any Gentoo Friends on this board? If so tell me what you love or hate about it. What USE flags do you use? In the meanwhile I will post some of my favorite Gentoo Desktops!!

>>450 heres one last desktop That I really like
I want to learn how to set up Gentoo one day. Currently on Linux Mint.
>>453 Linux mint is comfy! Gentoo isnt too hard just follow the instructions on the wiki or a YouTube video. It just takes a while because you have to install packages from source which is cpu intense
>>454 Yes, it's comfy. I just want to be able to do more things in depth on my main PC with Gentoo in the future. I could move Linux Mint to one of my thinkpad laptops.
>>458 Yes here you go anon

The only thing I hate is the slow emerge times 
, but it's because I have a shitty laptop
Surprisingly this is the most stable I've felt using a linux distro
You guys just made me interested in gentoo again. I used it for a couple years back when i was a noob and exploring. It was a bit difficult to set up then , over 10hrs of compilation. LOL this time it'll be much easier
i love gentoo and i used it for years, but i got tired of having to compile everything, takes too damn long. i use debian now.

Recently got an autismo blast from my brain, so I need to make a mini-rant on it. Accordingly to this stinky piece of shit
https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/articles/000093216/graphics/processor-graphics.html
GVT-g is supported on up to Rocket Lake. Factually, only up to gen 9
https://github.com/intel/gvt-linux/issues/190
Newer GPUs require SR-IOV, but it is not mainlined and you literally need to be retard to use some third party shit kernel.
AMD do not have any consumer grade solutions either, there seem to be some cards that support SR-IOV, but they are enterprise grade and there isn't any documentation anyway, not that you need it of course since you can't afford to buy the card in the first place
NVidia is a huge L.M.A.O
and I don't take it seriously anymore.
On the other hand, 9th gen intel CPUs are from 2018 which makes then 7 years old. Not bad perhaps, buy my CPU is from 2016 so I hardly give a fuck about a two years' gain
No, this is not really a problem for me since I won't be able to afford new hardware in many years to come
but it still irritates me no end how everything only ever goes downhill. True, maybe some years later we'll all die it won't be relevant anymore at all, the main solution seems to be full PCI passthrough already
People bitch about how virtualization is so cool and usable, there are even a few qubes retards around (or maybe just one), who seem to be autistically obsessed with compartmentalization whatever advantage that shit gives them
But the facts are such that consumer grade virtualization does not exist. There's VMWare but let's be serious I'm not gonna install rootkit to sexually stimulate my compulsions
There are no state of the art open source solutions. In fact, the further hardware advances, the less usable it becomes, the fewer the feautres
I don't even mention this new AI schizophrenia with CPUs tuned for AI training, my ass what a fucking jew tier scam I can't believe the shit actually exists and sells.
Without proper GPU virtualization, using virtual machines for regular tasks is simply not viable. If you need a separate GPU, you're going to have a much smoother experience buying a second machine instead.
So modern virtual machines are literally a crude barely usable workaround for poorfags Poor candy ass needs windowses to do their whatever school/college/midwit-job-that-does't-pay related shit is required of them?
They'll just have to suffer through it
mans from higher social classes can afford hardware, so they hardly give a fuck I don't mean to demean anyone or to complain or to even say they're not right, it's just so annoying. It constantly nags me that mans reserve all the good things for themselves alone. I'll try to meditate more and want less things, but until then, you'll have to make peace with this rant's existence
Usually yeah, I accidentally nuked my Gentoo install a month or so ago so I'm running a half assed arch install and I'm too lazy to return to Gentoo for now.

Been a Gentoo user since 2006-ish, right around when I was graduating HS. First Gentoo box was a hand-me-down Gateway PC with a 500mhz Katami PIII and a Voodoo3 GPU. It was such a POS PC. Current computer is the fast fetch on the small screen. The other one is my home server, which is my old computer. Yes I am a furry. Yes I will "yiff in hell". Small screen is my WinMax 2 2023's display, upper monitor is a 2560x1080p curved viotek, lower monitor is a 2560x1080p curved acer. There is a 4th monitor, that is an old panasonic CRT TV, but it isn't hooked up right now. Image spoiler'd because it is technically NSFW, but in my opinion my wallpapers are artistically tasteful.
