Where on the "knowing people" is understanding people can be too similar. Like Two Queen Bees arguing in a group is a classic but imo it happens to varying degrees in other personality types/facets like, ""Hey you guys both like guitar you'll get along..." Awkward silence after 20 mins because some people put everything into their hobbies.

Want a feel if that is above or below water on the iceberg

more of a pedant

greentext reads like it was written by that old Chad-PS3 console... not sure famous it was but he referred to wiimotes as dildos

I believe there is also a flag for portage -g I think that will download the binary for any package.

I suppose the argument for fun would be from people who enjoy tweaking USE flags and other things but only on specific packages or have a very low-end PC which cannot compile much.

You could have a kernel-bin installed then spend endless amounts of time tinkering replacing glib with musl (which seems popular on IRC lol).

Install Gentoo <--- used to be a meme

In the past few years it has become much more user friendly. The install process is very similar to installing Arch, pretty much copy/pasting commands from the wiki (which is even easier if you SSH into the install media from another PC/phone).

The kernel used to require configured by hand so that only relevant drivers were installed for your system; nowadays there is a full fat kernel like you would get with another distro that requires no configuring, called gentoo-kernel-bin.

There are system profiles that cover the widest variety of CPU architectures of any distro to my knowledge. It used to even support extremely old archs before certain core python packages started needing rust as a dep.

Complex apps like Firefox and Rust both have binary versions in the package manager so you don't need to spend a long time waiting for them to compile on an old PC.

Obviously, won't be everyone's cup of tea but if you are a bit adventurous it is an option.

I'm not sure the strategy of hiring someone who has personally injected every single drug into his veins at some point in his life to be health chief was ever going to work out.

At least they should give him all the diseases too so we can see if the drugs work!

Admittedly it is a pretty funny nickname but personally I find it amusing because he's so non-threatening

Pretty safe to say he's over-hated. Even like colleagues of mine whom I suspect do not follow politics closely refer to him as things like "Kier Stalin".

Maybe I'm old fashioned but a PM is essentially an admin role -- why do we expect that they be inspirational too.

This seems like a problem that will self-correct. The way Schrier has phrased the headline makes it sound like the industry is a monolith with a comitee leading it.

There are genuine integration issues in the UK so the anti-migrant bloc do have some valid concerns. However, there will be a non-insignificant amount of racists among them.

Weirdly, the "skipping the queue" rhetoric even works with fellow migrants. I have a friend from Iran who I used to work with that moved to the UK ~3 years ago; he's way angrier about irregular channel crossings than the average Scottish person I know. I'd imagine spending a lot of money and years on a waiting list before being given a work visa was a grating experience though.

Their mode of entry into the UK was illegal but any asylum claims they make will be assessed as being potentially valid. I think you were saying the same thing but not sure.

The reason people are particularly pissed off is that Farage and co. have framed the debate as an issue of fairness. Essentially the charge levelled at the irregular migrants is queue jumping, which we don't look upon fondly in our culture.

To be fair, she could have kept quiet about this and avoided another round of people calling her names online, which would have been the easier path. Most people in this thread might know "Robinson" is dodgy but we're not the target audience.
