Foot works fine here also.

I'm not a C programmer (is this code even C?), but I anticipated seeing comments like this. 😂

Or you could start with something which already has a package manager.

LFS is fun weekend project, but it’s not a daily driver.

Agreed. It'll teach a lot, but to make it last longer, you want a package manager.

Oh, nice!

... unless you install a package manager, which turns LFS into an another distro. 🤷

incredible flexibility of Portage

Exactly.

I know people running systemd AND OpenRC on their Gentoo installs. Gentoo is a metadistro. It gives you the tools to build your own distro. SO in comparison to LFS, Gentoo is pretty similar. It's just the tools that differ (although one can use Portage with LFS...)

Gentoo gives you a thorough course in Linux fundamentals

I basically learned everything Linux related from using Gentoo.

I've been installing Gentoo on my every machine. But I realistically could install Alpine on those few that I don't use so often. At least I'm gonna test. It's been years since I used Alpine on any machine.

Yes.

Even if it's more limited compared to Solidworks, I bet learining to "cope" with FreeCAD will be easier in then end. One can even do CAD with Blander nowdays, but it's very different. Especially how you later undo an action.

Oh boy...

Imo, both methods should set the same value for x. That's madness. 🤪 Just look at awk for example. There's a dedicated substr() and it doesn't care about spaces. But then awk is quite loose in everything... and niche... But I love it.
