i installed it 20 years ago and have daily driven it since. i’ve never needed to reinstall or anything, it has just evolved with the times and my tastes. i love being able to customize everything. i have it wake up and update itself on a schedule so i’m rarely waiting for compiles to finish. everything is tuned for my hardware and it feels really snappy. idk it’s just great. not for everyone!

nobody connects to it the four days

WHAT THE FUCK ARE THEY TALKING ABOUT I HATE THIS WORLD

if it helps i’ve been using the same install of gentoo since 2007. the hard drives, cpu, ram, init system, and everything else changed but it’s still that same install. or is it? vsauce music

your customizations should usually go in /etc and /usr/local so you could back those up. your distro ought to have a guide on backing up your package selection. but yeah i don’t enjoy wiping everything and starting over

we desperately need kernel livepatching to be easier. that would have broken this exploit chain. also almost no services need esp or rxrpc or exotic things lile af_alg, but proper sandboxing takes a lot of time and trial and error. few services list all the capabilities, filesystems, address families, and syscalls they need to function. even if you get the service to boot there’s a good chance some feature will touch the electric fence during operation
