I’m a big fan of the “For Babies” series. Picked up Evolution, Quantum Mechanics and Organic Chemistry for my daughter.
If you like this book, you should also check out: “The cat in Redhat” and “ripgrep and PAM”.
The face is priceless.
Thats a sysadmin expression for sure. He has a glorious future ahead of him, and many sleepness nights.
Yeah they got to the section on Nvidia drivers.
Babies first Distro.
And when 2 repositories love each other very much…
They fall out over a minor implementation detail and get forked.
judging from the expression they just got to the vim section
Building Vim from source is pretty damn easy.
cd vim && make && sudo make install. Just need to be careful not to run it by accident, or you’ll be restarting Linux From Scratch from scratch.
Then a fast follower:
We’re only in the second week, so there’s not much I’ve learned yet, but I’m taking a Linux class (for cybersec, so we’re using Kali VMs), and I’m honestly excited. I already know some basics due to using Fedora as my daily driver, but I never took the time to properly learn Linux, so this class will help me to be power user and maybe fix my own shit more (Or at least troubleshoot better).
We did open vi for a short bit and yes, we did not know how to exit 😅
Are you doing a QA “bootcamp” or does everyone do things the same?
I’m not really sure what “QA bootcamp” means, are you talking like how people do cert boot camps? Cause no, it’s an actual class where we follow instructions to do labs/simulations and the occasional quiz. There’s no special test to prepare for afaik.
This is me, both the dad and the baby. Sometimes either, sometimes both at the same time. And almost never knowing beforehand which I’ll end up as at the end.
Don’t be afraid: Debian will make you cozy and warm.
Debian? Did you see the title of that book? “Linux from Scratch”. Clearly its a Gentoo guide book.
Clearly it’s an LFS guide book… LFS isn’t Gentoo.
Clearly, it all comes to Debian.
I’d like a Romeo & Juliet story where one house uses VI and the other Emacs.
What if you use both?
Modern psychiatry doesn’t have the answer yet.
Italian
Blasphemy!
🎶You first extract GCC from the sources directory🎶
Linux from Scratch?..
I’ll just be here with my cozy mint 😅
Oh yeah … this is Arch by the way
LFS is the final boss. It comes even after you beat Gentoo.
Gentoo is easy and user friendly
Yeah, it just it might take a long time depending on your hardware. Stage 3 tarball installation took more than 2 days on my netbook (years ago). I don’t want to imagine compiling LibreOffice on that hardware. :)
You can download binary blobs nowadays… Firefox, LibreOffice without any delays.
That’s actually nice to know. Though if I’m gonna use Gentoo, I’m gonna compile everything.But I wouldn’t do that without a really beefy machine too.
It really doesnt take as long as you would think. I did it on a chromebook. Kernel and webrowser are the only things that take awhile and its only a few hours. When i did it on my gaming desktop it was barely any time.
I have Ryzen 3700X and it’s doing fine… not to mention I have a lot of uptime, and it can build on the background.
Figured from the expression.
