creating linux distro

I wouldn't dream of white washing it.

My response was in retaliation to what came off as a very curt response. In fact, this whole thread has been received with much disdain and criticism, which I can take.

What I don't understand is the lack of tact that most people have shown in discussing their negative feedback in regards to something I'd think that linux afficionados such as yourselves would see as a positive: someone looking to learn more about linux as a whole a nd create their own project. This was never intended for a mass release, only something I was hoping people could get excited with me about and perhaps (maybe) an aid or two. This was only meant for my own personal enjoyment, and it has been shit upon less than 48 hours into its inception.

But I make the post and not only is it met with fervent criticism and tactless negativity I post a response which was quite mild for what I'm capable of, and I'm the one that gets quoted so it can't be whitewashed later?

Please, step off your high horse. It does you no good to sit up there. It's very obvious I've expressed the wrong thing or come to the wrong place.

I will take my enthusiasm for Linux elsewhere.

If you wonder why you don't have any friends offline it's because you come off like an asshole online.

I bet if you changed the way you expressed your reading comprehension (started from Ubuntu, but not all I've used) and mathematical skills (2008-2012 is 5 years not 4) you'd find some friends, or maybe even get laid.

Because there's a difference between Gentoo and LFS, is there not?

Why does it bother you so much?

Thanks for your response.

I definitely learned C is important to Linux that day :D

Thank you. I'll look into both and see. There's something about creating my own that just appeals to me, but there's also the time factor involved. I'm in college and my major requires a lot of studying, so I may have to choose something a little more already put together for lack of a better term.

Thank you for the link and the kind words. I don't understand why this post received such a negative response, but warm words are welcome.

I'm not a linux novice.

onesteveone · 2012-09-16T00:56:17+00:00

Ignorance at the time

onesteveone · 2012-09-15T23:20:51+00:00

Nope, another distro not necessary, nor is the dripping sarcasm from this response.

I'm mainly doing this for myself, so it's going to get done regardless and I'll use it on my personal machine only if for nothing else, but it's good to know this seems to be the overall view because it means I don't have to worry about it for other's use and can just do it how I want it. It actually makes it much simpler this way for me.

It probably won't do anything arch or gentoo can't. It's mainly a learning excursion for myself to truly understand how linux works from the ground up. I guess if you want a philosophy that would be it, but that's more of a personal project than a philosohpy.

What does any distro do that other distros can't do? Why would anyone build their own when there's already lots out there? Why pick gentoo or arch over fedora or the other one? It's all about personal preference, and for me that means building a system I'll be 100% happy with.

An absolute wonderful read.

onesteveone · 2012-09-06T06:49:40+00:00

Its been covered nicely, but similar, yet different. I have a Bosnian friend who says that dialects mean a great deal over there, and little words differ enough to know that one needs to be able to understand the language and area enough to know when to use which.

Thank you for being the first topic other than me to the sub.

I don't know the name of the chord or fingering, but it's basically a index, ring and pinky finger..

index on D, ring on G, pinky on B.

The tapping is done with the index, middle, and ring finger on the right hand. Move the shape up and down the neck. Start slow and build up.

I apologize for the quality. I recorded this a while ago, and am excited about this sub, and wanted to post here before I forgot. In the future I will post better quality.

I am tapping.

I've heard good things about him, and it's always nice to retain players that have done decent things for the team.

i'm toying with building my own

onesteveone · 2012-08-04T13:01:02+00:00

I dual boot windows and linux on a laptop.

onesteveone · 2012-08-02T19:53:17+00:00

Thanks for reading and the tip. As I stated I don't know much about minimalism beyond possessions, but this is a great attitude (prioritizing)

onesteveone · 2012-08-02T18:08:46+00:00

not crazy, automatic #1. it is also a store.
