Another something I stumbled across. I posted it here because, well: Do you seek the truth? I mean, REALLY seek it? Or do you just kindof skirt around the edges of what you THINK is the truth until it starts getting uncomfortable, and then stop? Being honest is hard. Seeking the truth is...

I did an update as well. It's been QUITE A WHILE since I last did a fresh install. According to my file timestamps, my last fresh install was Dec 4 of 2020.

I just stumbled across this, thought it was cool:

I've been running it for a couple of weeks now, also no issues to report.

I didn't even know there WAS a sequel! I found it by accident.

Sweet. I'll have to check that out.

Just a note, when you start building your world, I would suggest making /var/tmp/portage be a ramdisk. 4G should be plenty. Depending on what you are compiling, 1G might be sufficient. All of your compiles happen on /var/tmp/portage, so making it ramdisk will dramatically speed things up...

Yes I am, and they are appreciated.

I've finished applying a bunch of patches. Please let me know if things seem amiss.

I ended up building a Gentoo server to replace a Debian server I have, precisely because I got tired of faffing about with systemd (plus Debian does some things that, to my way of thinking, are just plain WEIRD).

My family and I made the trek to Atkins Arkansas to see the eclipse (it's only about a 3.5 hour drive from where I live). I've uploaded the photos and videos to my web-site: Eclipse Pics Hope you all like them. I took them with my 80mm telescope and a cheapie camera that mounted on the...

IMO this was a carefully planned and orchestrated attack, probably for a state actor. I just don't see someone doing this for the LOLs.

Dude, I have been hit by everything in the frequency spectrum, from DC to Light, and from 12 volts to 120,000 volts. Some of it tingled, some of it knocked me on my butt, and frankly I'm amazed I don't glow at night, LOL.

Yup, that's the one.

Reminiscent of Blackreach in Skyrim.

Oh, if only! That would be too easy. The fan hub is asymmetrical, so you can only mount the fan one way and still have it clear the housing properly.
