Kali's spectacular, but I don't recommend it for "everyday" use. It's
designed to stand-up quick, do a pentest, and tear it back down when you're
done. I ran a subset of the pentoo overlay on a laptop for a while, and
while it was nifty to have some of those tools on hand, it wasn't enough
for me to justify having them installed 24/7, and it never felt as complete
as Kali does for the job.
