Altman is a megalomanic psychopath, lying to steal even more money and break everything just to feel better about himself.

There is no ethical consumption under capitalism.

Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.

We can nitpick specific examples for everything you want, and we will be correct, but that detracts from the point that Gabe has helped to build things that took decades of slowly getting anywhere.

I wish we didn't need it, but we do.

It's usually the llvm that takes forever, then Firefox, then LibreOffice.

You can actually pull binary packages in Gentoo, if you are into that, and update like any other system.

It may not be that easy, but they burned billions of cash and fresh water, and it's not that much of an achievement.

I have an 8 core CPU, but I have to admit I don't use any DE.

Updates can take several hours if I don't upgrade for a while, but PC is usable during them (you can set number of build threads).

Manual intervention is what I've said needed way more in Fedora, which left me without any video after updates, or Ubuntu which broke integrations or replaced my software.

Gentoo just... is.

There are sometimes updates that would require intervention if you do something special, nothing too difficult though, and you get a link to Wiki with working solutions.

I need to donate more money to that project.

I have struggled with Fedora for couple of years (graphics drivers after major updates), then Ubuntu got me down a couple of times (snaps and other malice).

Zero issues with Gentoo after the initial setup. You build it, update it, and IT WORKS. Also you can easily remove parts of software you're building with USE flags. -telemetry, -x11, and you never care about it anymore.

Gentoo is an easy OS, and works like a charm.

You just have a weird way of agreeing.

Yes, and so may BYD. I have no idea what are you arguing for.
