I got chased off Reddit by a cabal of power hungry woke mods stalking me. I'm going to be celebrating when Reddit becomes the next Digg. They did it to themselves and deserve everything that's coming to them.

Using Gentoo as my primary desktop OS back in the mid-2000s taught me incredibly valuable problem solving skills. The lack of any safety net allowed me to break stuff in such unique ways I usually couldn't simply Google a quick fix. Th
