You don’t have to choose between binary and source, you can get some pre-compiled packages that you don’t care about, but e.g. run a custom kernel at the same time.
Writing your own internet protocol is a good idea but you shouldn’t stop there. You need to run your own internet cables too to make sure it does what you want and isn’t controlled by someone else.
Let’s be honest, real nerds use Gentoo
Better start compiling now so its ready by October
I started my Gentoo compile in 2008. It should be ready by next October.
I did it on sparc way back in the day, took a solid week. Once was enough
Old news, gentoo has binary packages as an option
What’s the point of using Gentoo if you don’t compile?

a good starter distro but ideally you should make your own from scratch so you know what’s in it
Honestly you’re not a real one until you’ve written your own kernel entirely
You guys would have deployed your own internet protocol if this conversation continued

And develop your own plastic to cover the cables?
And what are you going to cover with it if you haven’t even started mining your copper and inventing a machine to make your fiber optics.
Wait, maybe we need to start with the electromagnetic spectrum in general.
Oh my god😭
Linux has a good starter kernel but ideally you should
(I wish I was that advanced, maybe some day.)
Weird way to spell NixOS.
Not really any harder then Arch if you know about how linux systems work and didn’t just copy paste or script your entire arch installation.
