my absolute favorite thing is when you boot a debian/ubuntu system and you need to immediately install something with apt or a wrapper and it's like "NOPE, CAN'T! AUTOUDPATE RUNNING IN THE BACKGROUND"

The automatic ubuntu updates will probably finish before your gentoo package compiles though! Joking, but at the same time not really; installed a gentoo prefix a couple days ago, and compiling gcc took so much time that I'm never getting back.
I build my own Gentoo binary packages on a cronjob, so I don't really wait for compiles (and if I'm installing something new, the buildbox has 32 threads so...)
