Gentoo is fun but I wish it had actual advantages in speed also. Something to make it worth compiling all that stuff.

Binary speed is really the least reason to do it. Whether it’s worth it or not is up to the individual, but there are a lot of little reasons Gentoo is uniquely powerful.

Benefits specific to compiling:

fine-grained control of features and dependencies with USE flags
very easy package maintenance (writing ebuilds)
- much simpler to add your own custom local packages when you need them
- less workload on the gentoo team which is good for repository health and breadth
control of compile flags (yes speed, but more practically hardening for secure systems)
the same gentoo is available on way more platforms and architectures than any binary distro

0% battery lol

Yeah, battery broken, it’s constantly on AC or DC idk I’m not electrician.

АС - in the outlet

DC - coming to your battery

The charger essentially alters voltage and also turns AC into DC (and provides extra resistance so you don’t fry your laptop)
