haven't compiled it in like months bc it keeps erroring out lol
please tell me you use ccache tho
I do, I don't think I would survive without it.
true, all my large packages use ccache
How about webkit-gtk
Is that chromium too by any chance?
It's Chromium's non-Google cousin.
If that piques your interest, be aware that it's mostly Apple's baby.
And to swing back positive again, it's open-source because Apple didn't create it in the first place and they're bound by GPL to keep it that way.
Finally, a useful fun fact: WebKit GTK often comes with a MiniBrowser program that is a bare-bones web browser wrapped around the engine.
It isn't symlinked in /usr/bin or anywhere like that, but it does work as an emergency secondary browser if something breaks your main one.
It's usually found somewhere like /usr/lib/{OS type}/webkitgtk-{version}/MiniBrowser
On my machine it's /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/webkit2gtk-4.1/MiniBrowser
Oh right, webkit (I seem to be bad at understanding the words I'm reading). I love that most modern web engines are just forks of KHTML
I've never emerged chromium, proud waterfox user :)
Do you have the source for the original video? A mechanic friend would love this but I don't want to spend 10 minutes explaining what Gentoo is.
Edit: found a different supercut https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oxr6Zv5GRkc
No, this is itself a repost
Gentoo? This is just emacs life
