I assume it's an Americanism. >=20 Nah, it is a word that people around use to use to name those persons that think that any hyper patched kernel is the best thing to make your computer like 10 times faster. Those use also to have an insane amount of custom cflags, ldflags and the like. Of course, for a ricer is also important to run ~arch for most packages, except for system packages and the toolchaing, where they usually prefer to use something like gcc-7.0_alpha1 releases (joking, of course). It somewhat a word play, with "racer", like if all these so-called "optimizations" made your box go at the speed of light :P You can find a funny thread about ricers and "ricing" in general in the gentoo forums: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-309752-highlight-ricer.html Jes=FAs. --=20 gentoo-amd64@gentoo.org mailing list
