Dual boot windows/Ubuntu on my desktop. Osx on my laptop. Game from windows most of the time, do everything else in Ubuntu, I like having the terminal and being able to google and getting shit done/ installed / updated in a flash .

You nerds running gentoo need to get with the times.

https://www.archlinux.org/

is almost as powerful and much less hassle then gentoo to get rolling.

by power, arch compiles for your architecture and lets the installer have total control of libs and packages etc... it's just a hell of a lot better automated and let's you skip shit you don't need compiled/perfect for your system, stuff that is overkill.

p.s. gentoo and arch are too much effort, that's why I let Patrick Volkerding do all the work ) and slack.

arch vs gentoo... FIGHT

also anyone ever try any of the BSDs? i always get turned off by their community. they almost as bad as mactards, at least thats what it seemed like when i did some research.

think gentoo would probably win in a duel to the death with no rules a la mortal kombat by a slim margin just because it is the most flexible distro that I know of outside of DIY
