Because the person creating the image didn’t take the time to optimize the image. It’s probably just a PNG or a JPEG, which is way overkill for representing a NES frame.

Other commenters have mentioned that the NES has 56 colors and uses tiles to draw the frame. If you took the same approach (maybe embedding a GIF tile in an SVG), you could cut down the size of the modern image significantly.

Exactly! But when did it become the cool thing to do?

Why do people censor fuck or other profanity on the internet? I don’t get it, and until now, I’ve been too afraid to ask.

Hell yeah!

Perhaps I have some internalized homophobia, but aside from sex and gender identity, what else is it?

I’d like Gentoo ebuilds to run in a fully isolated namespace/container with only the dependencies explicitly enabled by portage configuration. Something like a mix of nix but with the ebuild syntax.

Will smith what? Armor? Jewelry? I’m dying of curiosity here.

Yes, this. Don’t put your whole home directory in git.

Chiming in to also recommend Gentoo. It’s a pretty stable rolling release distro, with access to pretty new packages when necessary.

Snaps just aren’t ready yet.

Go for it then! Gentoo is a blast (if you enjoy this sort of thing) and is surprisingly stable once you get it set up.

One tip, before I forget, is to save your firmware from MacOS before wiping the drive. Unfortunately I don’t remember where it’s located, and no longer have access to try and find it 😅

You’ll need to be a bit more specific about the iMac. What year is it?

If it’s pre-2017, I’d expect some difficulty with the WiFi. If it’s newer, you might have luck with https://wiki.t2linux.org/distributions/gentoo/installation/ . I haven’t followed that guide, so YMMV.

Bit of pedantry, but ~/boot expands to something like /home/username/boot.

/boot is a folder at the root of your filesystem, while ~/boot is a directory in your home folder.

What’s the better alternative to dracut? Normally I compile everything into the kernel, but have been having issues with my Intel firmware and need an initramfs.
