Lengthy explanation as to how this is not retarded is to follow, stay tuned.

>no -march=native -mtune=native
Pretty fucking retarded

ok

>USE="[insert 1 million flags]"
Yeah, it's retarded. What's the point of useflags if you're going to use everything? Enjoy your compilation times.

Explanation, part 1:
>-march=x86-64
>not -march=native
This is because I installed to an external ssd and I use this install on multiple machines. It would be stupid to optimize the builds for a specific processor if I'm just going to also use them on others.
>MAKEOPTS="-j16"
While it's true that I use this system on multiple machines, the one I actually run updates on has 32 gigs of ram and over 16 cores. So -j16 is exactly appropriate.
>VIDEO_CARDS="amdgpu i915 i965 intel iris nouveau qxl radeonsi virtualbox vmware"
Multiple machines. I don't optimize for one specific kind of video card because I won't be using one specific kind of video card.
>X, gtk, gui
I want as many packages as possible to have a GUI. I would prefer it to be a Gtk GUI where possible, because I have ideological disagreements with Qt.
>aac, alsa, ffmpeg, flac, gif, jpeg, mp3, mp4, mpeg, ogg, opus, pdf, png, sound, svg, tiff, vorbis, webp, xpm
I want sound, and I want to be able to open all the kinds of multimedia files in every program that supports them.
>acl
One time, years ago, I needed per-directory default umask or some shit and this was the answer and I didn't have it. I don't want to end up in that situation again.
>acpi, bluetooth, cups, pcmcia, pda, scanner, usb, wifi, xinerama
I can make no guarantees about the peripherals of every computer I might ever find occasion to use this install on. I would like every kind of peripheral I can think of to just werk when it comes down to it. Especially, I would like to be able to use this install with laptops and touch screens.
>bash-completion
It's convenient.
>crypt
I have an RSA key pair. I would like to be able to use it to make whatever I'm doing more secure wherever possible.
>cxx
I use C++. Sometimes I would like to use the functionality of another package on my system from a little stupid C++ thing I'm writing.

>dbus
retard alert

Explanation, part 2:

>fbcon, gpm, libcaca, ncurses
My system has yet to break at all, let alone so badly I can't start X. But if it ever does, it would be nice to be able to use it comfortably while I'm fixing it.
>fontconfig
Sometimes I build fonts from source and install them, and/or make fonts.
>ftp, mtp, openssl, ssl
I use my phone as a file server.
>gimp, imagemagick
I use it, so it would be nice if things that can potentially provide plugins for it would do so.
>git
I use it, so it would be nice if anything on my install that needs a version control system would use it too, so I can interface with it manually if ever need be.
>luajit
I have decided luajit is my system's lua version. Anything that needs lua should use luajit. LUA_SINGLE_TARGET=luajit serves the same purpose.
>man
I want manpages for everything.
>mysql
Sometimes I play around with self-hosted webdev. What if one day for whatever stupid reason I want to write a website that gives me info about some other thing on my system. Well then it would be nice if the database that other thing uses is mysql, because that's what I know how to use.
>opengl, vulkan
I like gaymes. But this is a multi-machine install, so I need both.
>pcre
Why would I ever want anything to use shitty completely useless BRE or ERE.
>pie
Something i was doing requires this. I forgot what though.
>posix
Sometimes I write things that have to work on macOS. It would be nice if I can test some of the simpler ones without firing up the VM.
>python
Been meaning to learn it. When I do, it'd be nice if the packages on my system just werk with it.
>ruby
Already know it, so it'd be even more nice if my packages just werk with it.
>sdl
It's usually faster. I also like trying to make gaymes so it's nice if things werk with sdl because that's what I use.
>openmp, smp, threads
The machine I update on has a lot of cores.
>sockets
Sometimes i want to control a GUI application's behavior from the command line

Explanation, part 3:
>truetype, unicode
Everything is ugly af without this
>xft
Sometimes i need this instead though
>xinerama
Sometimes i have multiple monitors
>zip, zlib
If the prog langs I use have library features for handling zips, I want them, because I fell for the self-extracting archive meme
>dbus, because some retard asked
Muh gaymes
>dist-kernel
Multi-machine portable install
>-consolekit, -elogind, -gnome, -gnome-keyring, -kde, -networkmanager, -plasma, -policykit, -polkit, -spell, -systemd, -udisks, -wayland
Cringe software
>-geolocation, -gps, -telemetry
Glowies

how do i unsubscribe to your blog

just install arch cunt

>Any Forums lied to me
You are the true retard of the thread
>What's the point of useflags if you're going to use everything?
I don't, just a lot of things
>Enjoy your compilation times
Werks on my machine

I hope I never reach this level of linux autism

don't worry only retards struggle and or give a shit in the first place

>>-o2
>pussy faggot
I'm not going to risk machine-specific optimizations on a single install I'm using across multiple machines
>>comments
>retard
Those comments came with the distro, I'm not so autistic I'd delete them just because. The only comment I added was "# custom" so I can tell at a glance where most of my changes start.
>>random order
>retard
They're in alphabetical order, you are delusional.
>>those flags
>just install arch cunt
Fuck no, then I can't use USE flags.

there is a lot of sometimes in there user, looks to me that you don't really know what the fuck are you doing

Reminder that if you have more than one computer you're officially a retard, as OP proven.

There's a lot of sometimes because there are a lot of variables when you're installing to an external SSD without knowing what machine you'll boot it on, and, more generally, when you have specific needs and interests but not foreknowledge of every single specific package you'll ever install on your system to the end of time.
>b--b--but muh package.use
I use that too.

Where can I unsubscribe from your blog?

1. clearly don't know what ur talking about
retard
2. why keep them if your gonna go on some autistic defence mode thread no one asked for
3. that is effective random order. try grouping them logically faggot
4. as if you made good use of them in the first place

>These settings were set by the catalyst build script that automatically

ngmi

>1. clearly don't know what ur talking about
>retard
No u
>2. why keep them if your gonna go on some autistic defence mode thread no one asked for
Why wouldn't I?
>3. alphabetical order is effectively random order
Opinion discarded
>4. as if you made good use of them in the first place
I do, the use flags I've selected guarantee matching optional features of packages will be built and available. If I used arch then sometimes maybe they wouldn't.

>I have ideological disagreements with Qt.
this man has never even seen a woman in his life
