**What have we been up to Linux related this Week?**
Tyler – I have been spending the week in 9front and now am trying to redo my desktop build and I'll be doing more with VM's
Matt – I've spent the week fighting with Artix. Non-systemd things don't like this computer. I've now installed opensuse.

Matthew Weber
LOL. Sorry about the name. It looks like the gentoo thing might be happening, so that will be fun (for everyone else).
Tri-Devil
Compiling Gentoo shouldn't take more than 8 hours (Base system + DE/TWM) on machine like yours. On Fast machines Firefox takes about 25 minutes while Chromium still takes a couple of hours (replace Firefox with Chromium and Zany's remark makes more sense). Last time I checked my name isn't Peter (having some paranoia are we?).
Joshua Lee
I'll drive up there for $200 and install gentoo for you.
