Also, 5 years from now that monitor is going to be TOP OF THE LINE! Woo boi!

[huljaxful]

If it was 5 months challenge i can see it happening, maybe. 5 years? That is insane... especially for you! I wish you good luck

Ive been using it for 2 years. Its my favourite distro, only gripes ive had have been some missing packages but otherwise its solid. Heres some advice: if you roll a custom kernel, ALWAYS KEEP A BACKUP KERNEL.

i’ve run it for 20 years, so easy really

[rahilarious]

ez challenge. Cause once you go Gentoo you never go back.

[nichtgestalt]

Nice, that's a pretty cool bet. I hope to see some cool Gentoo tutorials in the future, especially because I have a similar CPU :) Will you ever use a custom Kernel or will you keep using the distribution Kernel? Anyway, nice to have you back! See ya soon, Boi! <3

Which terminal program is that with Squirtle? I've seen others use it but don't know the name.

[leej]

You know, it better be a working monitor in 5 years.

Gentoo 4EVER - that is the only way. Gentoo way. But seriously I think it is the best Linux distro and the first which convinced me to ditch Windows. No point switching from Windows if all I get is bunch of precompiled binary garbage with telemetry.

do you have your old dot files cause i would really like them. if you still have them. thanks. i was watching one of live videos showing how you tap keybond weather shows up.

[nn]

hmm, does it still count if you vm another distro through gentoo? lol

[anon_y_mousse]

Just about any format is good if you can keep doing short videos like this. Though, I do have one note for you, that's a can, not a bottle.

[siljrath]

too early for an initial progress report?
...
1 month update pls.

Total payoff at the end of 5 years will be 300 dollars and 31 in interest. In my opinion, too low of a payoff. If you want to do that anyways, okay, but the bet should be at least 10 bucks a month.

[nicklis]

5 years = 1200$ = new cpu 16c/32t, 128gb ram, ecc ecc.

[kendawg_mcawesome]

Not gonna use that monitor for 5 years? Or you're already planning on losing? lmao

[hopelessdecoy]

5 years on Gentoo? So you're just going to compile Firefox and quit? Doesn't seem worth it lol
