Not for the faint of heart, but once you've got it fully aligned with your workflow nothing beats Gentoo.

Don't mean to be a wet blanket... but "Gomix" sounds/looks a lot like the Russian word for "faggot".

Not even 2 weeks ago the DRUMPF'lets were screaming bloody murder over some emails. And now that DRUMPF essentially pleads guilty to fraud on a mass scale, deafening silence. The h…

About a week ago, I told myself I'd give Trump a chance. Since then, he's appointed a vile white-supremacist as his right hand man, vowed to ethnically cleanse undocumented peole o…

Highly relevant given current events.

Huh? You're seriously asking why we should care what experts on the far-right have to say about far-right organizations?

If they are in fact members of the Alt-Right -- which it seems none of them deny -- then I don't see why any further explanation is required. The Alt-Right is an SPLC-designated ha…

Good. Twitter has a legal and ethical responsibility to not allow their platform to promote vile racism, sexism, Islamophobia, etc. No one owes anyone a platform to spew their hatr…

A single hashtag is in no way comparable to a fast growing white-supremacist hate movement which counts he President-Elect's right hand man (Steve Bannon) as a member.

What is the actual criticism? The Alt-Right is a hate movement. Twitter has a responsibility (both ethical and legal) to prevent their platform from being used to promote racism, s…

It's a private business, they have every right to decline to provide service to (hateful, bigoted) people. Don't like it? Start your own damn website.

This is absolutely horrifying. To know that there are so many rural, angry white men who are so driven by hatred. There are just no words. This is a huge win for racism, misogyny a…

Fact check: Drumpf's not winning [1]. [1] http://elections.huffingtonpost.com/2016/forecast/president

Dude, you're telling me in the same breath that you're not a white supremacist and yet you voted for a racist billionaire whose supported by David Duke, the KKK and legions of Inte…

Drumpf is supported by David Duke, the KKK and legions of neo-Nazis.

It's very interesting that in these predictable "oh no, the PC culture is oppressing me" stories, the hapless victim is inevitably a white male of extraordinary privilege and power…

The FBI is not infallible. It's an organization made of largely of middle aged privileged white men. Considering Drumpf's campaign is more or less the white supremacy's last gaspin…

They could be fake, they could be doctored, they definitely are are out of context, etc. We know these emails are provided courtesy of Russia. Considering the Trump campaigns distu…

Hacker News is, as clearly stated in the FAQ, "for things of interest to hackers". Given how widely discredited WikiLeaks is -- pretty much every neutral observer acknowledges they…

Not particularly controversial, this partisan, out-of-context trash simply doesn't belong on Hacker News. Why? Because it's pretty obvious that the faux neutrality that comes with …

It is crazy sir. And it is going away. What we are seeing is nothing but the last gasps of a bunch of angry, old white guys who are not happy that women, People of Color, LBGTQs, i…

They really ought to be asking some tougher questions. At the end of the day, Trump is a man whose platform consists of removing the rights of large cross sections of the American …
