Facebook killed the radio star. And by radio star, I mean the premise of distributed forums around the internet. And that got got by Instagram/SnapChat. And that got got by TikTok. Where the fuck is the internet we once knew?

Because everything is compiled from source, Gentoo supports 64-bit better than any other OS. You can tailor everything to exactly what you want in terms of libraries, architecture, etc.
Nope. I actually don't understand your problem. Can you explain it in more detail?

It gets tedious and becomes a PITA very fast...

Why would a water balloon be especially bloated on a hot summer's day? For your sake, I hope there wasn't too much logic testing on your LSAT.

It's more like, instead of a package manager, you have a package source manager. It handles everything for you. The only PITA you can complain about is how it takes forever to set up your system.
I'd personally do as Joe suggests
You might be right about that, Joe.
Always install Windows first and let Linux clean up it's mess.

Well, another update: windows sucks at partition recognition and management. When it set up that new partition for me, it deleted the linux partition. But then, when it "deleted" the partition, it still left it written to the table! I just deleted it with linux and am proceeding to install slackware.. I have a feeling this is going to break windows though.
I think iago has infected everyone with Slackwaritis. Why would you make it more painful for yourself with no noticeable benefit?!

Regardless, I was right. Installing linux broke Windows. Fucking Windows. -_- Now to do a clean format of my HD and retry all this shiz. I want linux cause I intend to do some programming for some servers/other systems that run linux.
It was the Linux installer's fault. It should have asked you whether you wanted to modify the MBR or not.The FreeBSD installer sucks (well it's not pretty), but it gives you the option to leave the MBR alone. It didn't clobber my Windows boot loader and they coexist happily. I'm sure most Linux distributions provide this option too.Why Slackware? You want to do hardcore development? Gentoo is a pure developer's system. All third party software is compiled so you can rely on all the headers and development tools being there ... and being where they're supposed to be!
