i mained gentoo back in the day and was very proud that i slogged through the really hard installation process and learned a lot from it, but i'm relieved that the docs promise you can power through an installation in about an hour on a modern system if you are really hurried and i think that's great

also I'm enjoying reading through the handbook which is very detailed but also very clear, so that's probably a good sign

got myself a stick of linux ready to install after dinner >:3

my sister asked "how many linuxes do you need" to which I answered "one more"

@aeva isn't it "linuces"?

Yeah the "VAXen" (and even "boxen" [plural in actual standard American English: "boxes"]) people always annoyed me.

@teajaygrey @curtmack @aeva for me it's always been boxen, vaxen, unices

Always? You never learned of a "boxes" before boxen? Curious.

@teajaygrey @curtmack @aeva boxes if cardboard, boxen if computers
