| | | | | Right now, most browsers use something like Courier for their default monospace font. This isn't very useful and not acceptable for code or programming samples. Fortunately, it's not hard to create a CSS-based system font stack with great monospace fonts. This expands on the work in System Shock Mono that originally described making a monospace CSS system font stack.

If every computer in the world run Gentoo, power consumption would increase dramatically. There would also be no netbooks, as they are almost unusable for running Gentoo on it, compiling software. The path chosen by binary distributions like Debian is much better. Packages are compiled centrally and users download and install these pre-compiled packages. But it is also much less flexible in terms of which functionality is supported. We, as package maintainers, have to decide which functionality is likely to be used by the users. In Contrast, Gentoo has USE flags, which allows the user to enable the specifi... | ||
