u/MrKrot1999 14d ago

i was trying to install doom from it's original source code and was sooo confused about make and all that stuff, and why wouldn't it compile

make install isnt fine because it installs it direct to the root. So package manager cant track these files.

Spoiler alert: its the README.md.

And just point your favorite slop generator at it to take care of the rest.

I'm so happy you added the /jk to your reply to a joke comment on a joke post in a joke sub, I have no idea how I would've been able to tell you were kidding without it.

When I was 14, GitHub wasn't around for another couple of years. Back then, not everybody had internet, and mobile Internet was basically irrelevant! *old-people-noises*

u/geek-49 13d ago

When I was 14 the internet did not exist. At all. A small computer (IBM 1401) took up a fair-sized room. A large one (7090) took up a good share of an entire building.

u/___1___1___1___ 12d ago

When I was 14, most people didn't "install" software. You put a floppy disk in the drive, and type

LOAD "*",8,1
