gentoo doesnt waste my time

power and cpu time, sure, but not *my* time, i just type 'emerge --sync && emerge -uDpv @world' and see what will be updated, make sure everything is good, then 'emerge -uD @world' and detach my screen/tmux session while it updates, same as i would do with any other distro

yeah; I didn't even realize in-home streaming was a thing, and happened to see it was available when I had the client / server on the same network at once and gave it a try. What else is neat about it though is if you get to desktop (I just bring up the adv options menu after launching a game) you can also just stream the desktop with it. Handy for games but just for general streaming it works fine as well

my compile flags are quite normal and not riced

I don't often do a system update unless it's been a few months, and just upgrade important packages until then. The only reason I checked the difference was because I installed a brand new processor that is supposedly twice as fast at compiling. While this is apparent for larger packages blatantly, smaller ones seem to have no major difference.

I wasn't trying to divert the ambiguous nonexistent topic, sorry for ruining your day man. Next time I'll just cut my dick off and install Ubuntu while listening to boy bands through mpd before I even consider posting something related to linux on the linux thread.

so many gentoo lurkers here, guess I'll add myself to the bunch

sure you haven't enabled abi_x86_32 globally or something like that? and I think bobbilljim has a point, e.g. with gcc 4.8.3/4.9.3 or newer there's default -fstack-protector-strong, guessing that might add a bunch

What is with the blote on packages nowadays?

To take a smaller package for example, ncurses, took 1 min 4 seconds to compile on Oct 2014 with an i5 2500k, now takes 1 min 20 seconds to compile today on an i7 4790k.

Do developers just not give a poo poo?

iirc ncurses had a lot of optional stuff but on ncurses 6 (which was released recently) they just made them compile by default

like extended color palette, utf-8, screen dumping, mouse support etc

back in the day the first step really was to get and build GCC 1.x using a vendor compiler that was some degree of terrible

it actually involved bootstrapping GCC with the vendor compiler and then rebuilding GCC with itself to really get decent performance and avoid codegen bugs and the like

until 386BSD and Linux, NEXTSTEP was the only major UNIX to ship with something other than a terrible closed vendor compiler

yeah and steve jobs still tried to rules lawyer his way around the GPL when he did it

then he found out "source code" was defined by the gpl to mean "the preferred form for making modifications to the work" not "whatever the gently caress i say it is"

translation: as with the kernel itself, next inc couldn't afford a compiler, so they used whatever spitballs and bailing wire the open sores community had managed to ship in 1987

amazing that technically nextstep has completely dominated the pc market in terms of quality and reliability compared to any other unix or linux system out there. what a world we live in now.

ubuntu update: driven by the desperate need to have something, anything, that is not unity, I have been forced to give gnome 3 a proper chance and have discovered that it is in fact pretty good these days

when are they going to scrap it all and start on gnome 4?
