Oh no, but it’s a compilation, it wastes precious resources!

Yes, it wastes resources IF your goal is to improve performance, which it won’t. If your goal is different, it’s not a waste, as I’ve already explained 3 times already

Not gonna happen. Unless other init systems make the developers lives easier.

Yes, it is. Everything on your computer uses energy.

How it isn’t? Games and gamers waste pretty much electricity

Yes, it’s a waste of energy to achieve the goal of entertainment of oneself. And if you’re entertained by watching compilation lines pass on your screen, hey, it’s your entertainment. It’s funny because according to yourself you’re not even paying the electric bill.

Not a strawman

Who said you can’t have a problem with me wasting resources? Let’s try again, from the top: The problem is in claiming you use gentoo for performance reasons. And the waste of electricity is if that’s your only goal in using gentoo. As I’ve said myself, and you too, there might be other reasons (goals) to use gentoo, that are perfectly valid. Including if watching compilation is what you call entertainment. You can think me playing games is a waste too, it’s fine.
