Ublock never worked on Android without root.

Gentoo: you compile your mother from source, and then give birth to yourself.

I read about the free edition, I will have to look into that. Thanks!

I ran it about 5 years ago. A friend had trouble getting the Nvidia closed source drivers installed so I spun up an install to get it done. I was able to figure it out. There was an error message that either she didn’t spot or maybe didn’t find a resolution too.

I do like Gentoo primarily because I am a troubleshooter at heart, I just don’t always have the time to deal with a broken system anymore.

I do get tempted to run it on bare metal from time to time. The last time I tried to install it in VirtualBox, it didn’t work out unfortunately.

I think that you misspelled Hannah Montana Linux?

(I just Googled KISS Linux. I tip my fedora, but I hope that you’re compiling everything from source!)

I had never installed Linux before. Back in 2006 my old college roommate told me that he was reading about it. I used Solaris Spark workstations back in college, but never ran Linux before. My other roommate ran Slackware which looked cool but I never looked into it. Anyway I had recently built a custom PC and I was trying to avoid paying the windows tax, and was growing tired of having to reinstall the cracked version I was using of “corporate windows xp” so I pulled up the installation guide, printed it out, and proceeded to install the stage 1 tarball.

It definitely was a trial by fire. I learned a tremendous amount, and I don’t regret any of it.

I even was playing WoW under Cedega.

I did eventually pick up a copy of Windows XP to run in parallels for Linux, and unfortunately, had to give it up for Windows XP as the main os due to Blizzard banning people who were playing Linux at the time.

I miss it sometimes, but I don’t have the free time to properly maintain an install of Gentoo.

I usually run Linux Mint on my VMs and test bench hardware however because it just works.

I ran Arch briefly but my conclusion was that if I wanted Ck and bl torture, I would just main Gentoo again.

Only masochists run Arch.

I run Gentoo BTW.

There was a program called Secunia that did exactly this. It was amazing. Sadly they were acquired and ended the free offering.

There are administration tools available for system deployment but they’re generally closed source and limited to the software selection available.

Unsure about command line, but PC Decrapifier is useful for removing preloaded software.

Ninite is useful to install software in batch.

Ninite can also install Malwarebytes, which is quite useful.

Between Windows Defender and Malwarebytes I generally don’t recommend anything else. And then Malwarebytes, which is extremely effective for free, is the only security suite worth paying for if you want to “set it and forget it”.

On the Microsoft side of things, a great deal of software can be deployed via command line.

It’s possible to build an offline installer for Office and Office 365 for example via the office deployment tool.

Additionally, it looks like if you pay for Ninite Pro, it supports command line.

Hmm TIL.

The quickest way to get the right answer in any community, in my experience, is to provide the wrong answer. People will come out of the woodwork to correct you.

True Patriots run Gentoo. CHOMP

I sent you a little love via a reply. And an updoot.

Jokes on you, here’s my memory architecture:

I generally seem to have had a good experience with Linux Mint. I use the cinnamon version.

Even dist upgrades don’t seem to be too much trouble.

I used to main Gentoo but that was a lot of work. I still miss it though, but that was almost 20 years ago, when I was unemployed, and had more free time than money.

I run Windows 10 on my personal laptop and I look at these changes for the sake of change and I am seriously considering wiping it and not just use Linux in a VM.

I used to main Gentoo.

Breaking the install was more of a guarantee.

I once removed most of X by trying to remove Gnome dependencies and it lead to an interesting couple of hours but I did have a working system when I was done.

There were countless dependency bugs and broken systems but at least I learned how to use the Gentoo Forum and also a lot of how Linux works.

I kind of want to give it another go.

I haven’t used Gentoo in years, maybe I should try to main it again.

It was a pain sometimes but man did I learn a lot from using it.

Have you tried links2?
It works in the terminal and pretty well.

You can add graphics support after recompiling it.

(Yes, I am self aware of this being a meme reply)

So where’s the Gentoo user? Behind the camera probably. Compiling the scene.

Gentoo is still compiling urinals.
Why aren’t you wearing a catheter?
