One side of linux YouTube pulls out a gun and the other pulls out a maid costume. I think we're on the right side, until someone does both.

Seriously though your tutorials are actually enjoyable and made me try to go Gentoo :3 yet have to see a desktop :c

[Longlius]

This channel perfectly encapsulates the feeling of hanging out on a tech-related IRC channel in the late 00s/early 2010s. I love it.

[kenziewebm]

the reason why openrc uses weird syntax for rc-service is that services can have custom actions
so, with systemd, you have only start, stop, restart
while openrc, a service `catgirl` can have a function `meow`, and you run `rc-service catgirl meow` and it makes the catgirl meow

[UnNamedGuy]

Ubuntu: Takes like 20 Minutes to install
Arch Linux: About 10 Minutes with the script about 2 hours manually
Gentoo: between a couple of days, weeks, months or years and a bunch of fire extinguisher's

[NoelleRL]

Blown away by this! The length, quality, everything is amazing!!! Great job Snoop ^w^

[MarshalerOfficial]

Finally a maid that knows to nerd out after a tedious work day and made something interesting to watch.

[uramisugi]

"from a company that would later on if it were fucking legal fill their computers with glue and plastic explosive this is pretty fucking cool" 😭

[WyvernDotRed]

2:20 The capacitor might be fixable, if it didn't damage anything from being shorted or blowing up.
Depending on how deep that charring is the rest of the board might be totally fine.

[NoTraceOfSense]

“Step5. Estrogen”

truly a necessary step :3

[goncalogil]

The production quality keeps getting better and better! love those little snoopitek segments

[the-floofy-mew]

ahh yes a reckless excursion through gentoo installation. with the vibes of myself late at night with only caffeine and no work. fun times.

[xduskashesreal]

I never expected to ever see a CD tray have to be ejected manually, and to have that done with a butter knife of all things. Snoopie is full of surprises.

[nagizah]

Hopefully ActionRetro will one up and install Gentoo on his dual 2GHz G4 while wearing a maid outfit

[OhNotThat]

"What do you mean you don't enjoy spending 56 days nonstop troubleshooting your operating system install? I can't imagine why linux isn't more popular"

[billybeamng]

If it wasn't for you making linux videos my linux learing adventure would have never started and my tech channel would probably be inactive. I now daily Arch on my desktop and am dualbooting Gentoo on my main laptop. Your channel is one of the main inspirarions for my tech channel and I plan on doing a G4 Gentoo vid of my own at some point. Thanks for your silly computer videos :3 and can't wait to see what you're cooking up for your next vid!

[voladsky]

Guess I'm finally on the right side of the internet
Your style is unique and amazing, not gonna lie! Keep up with that! (as long as your sanity allows of course *ahem* *ahem* yeah gentoo recompiling can be devastating)

[SockyNoob]

I wanted to do stuff like this in college a few years ago. PowerPC Mac running Linux, fem attire, and programmer socks. Turns out PPC Macs are expensive and I waited too long to come out as enby. Plus my hair started thinning before I started growing it out. At least I got $40 worth of thigh high socks tho.

[ktnjared]

Easily one of the best videos you've done. Masterpiece! And a fantastic journey. Thank you! Also, it's totally your fault that I have 30-some tabs open, looking at the arm64 Apple Silicon build process. The Pentium install was neat, if not crazy, but this G4 install video is glorious. Bravo. 👏🏻

[matejkohout]

Bro... I literary couldn't put my eyes of the screen. this is the best video I've seen on the whole internet. Love your work. Please keep it up. You are my idol ^w^ <3

[LightTheUnicorn]

Your presentation style is great. I love it. 😁
Good job on the install.
