Bit late to the party, but if you have a moment, I urge you to read @mgorny@treehouse.systems's latest blog post about what makes Gentoo Gentoo:
https://blogs.gentoo.org/mgorny/2026/05/28/why-gentoo/

Every now and again I get asked why I use Gentoo, and I usually say that it's the perfect OS for me, or that does what I want it to do. (Though, sometimes I go on rambling for hours... :gentowo:)
I think that this article conveys the point of Gentoo really well ( much better than I do :p ), so if you're curious, give it a read!

    There is a fully visible insect in this picture.

    I swear.

    See alt-text for the spoiler.

    Closeup of an oak tree trunk. Its bark is light grey with a splotch of lighter lichen toward the upper left. There are several brown furrows running vertically in the bark. In the upper right corner is a Brown-shaded Grey Moth just chilling out. I saw it land and even I knew exactly where it was, it still took a minute to find it. 🤭 Its wings are spread out and it’s facing to the right. Its coloring is exactly the same as the bark.

                  @lanodan @SRAZKVT char isn’t 8 bits on some platforms (well, most people think of bytes as octals anyway), though posix requires CHAR_BITS == 8

                  the issue is the void * conversion rules

                  i want to be able to uint32_t crc32(size_t size, byte_t data[static size]); – with char, users need to cast things into the data arg, and with void, [static size] is illegal

                    That said I don't think I know any modern system where char isn't 8 bit, like it might as well become part of ISO C similarly to two's complement.

                          I'm pretty sure they're the main reason that the null pointer in C is not defined to be all zero bits.

                                  a good thing to internalize is that c is built to run on the "abstract machine" defined by the standard, and isn't just "portable assembly" as people like to claim

                                    why ? because the only way to encode this is with type name[static size], which is an array (it isn't actually, it's just a pointer, but it is treated as an array) which makes c compilers choke because if type is void then you have an array of voids, which isn't legal

                                            and to that i’ve taken to implementing containers (hashmaps, et all) that hold uint32_t’s – and those are used as indices within a properly typed data array

                                            then i use macros just to define a struct with the concrete container type and the typed data together, e.g. #define hash(type) { struct hashmap map; type *data }, then struct hash(struct mew) mew_list;

                                            it’s convenient, and allows me to have no actual logic implemented as macros

Tetia proclaims "Kitki!" ("Ponytails!" in Polish), to which Agott responds "Daj mi spokój!" ("Leave me alone!").
The second features Richeh (girl with very light blue eyes and long hair of the same color) wringing out a brushbuddy like you would a cleaning cloth, saying "Ściiisk" ("Squeeeze"). Behind her is Coco (medium-long blonde bob, yellow eyes) who appears distressed asking her friend to stop - "Ojej, przestań..." ("Oh no, stop...")
All the pictures girls are weraing similar casual white robes.

And a dhcp server that doesn’t give out addresses sequentially. Wouldn’t debugging be fun if your machine has 169.254.133.17 or something.

Plus, /16 is too even. But I like the non-sequential DHCP. We should also split up router, DHCP and DNS IPs.

                                                                                                                                                                      NixOS uses systemd extensively and adding services is trivial. I'm sure it'll be fine.

                                                                                                                                                                      + Steam on a (no-multilib || musl) system;
                                                                                                                                                                      + not having to compile huge projects that I don't use often;
                                                                                                                                                                      + testing out desktop software. (otherwise I use nix/guix)

                                                                                                                                                                      I suspect the same thing could happen as with systemd-logind, i.e., the systemd-specific parts being extracted to a distro-agnostic solution (elogind in that case).
                                                                                                                                                                      The only reason I see for not making it distro-agnostic from the start is that it's easier (for them) to target systemd.

It's relieving seeing an organisation not just refuse to shy away from Pride but embrace it in the midst of the chaos a lot of us are going through. I suspect you mean it with the pride decor, because while many companies and organisations are opting not to even reskin their logo for exactly 30 days, you're unveiling a new mascot who is canonically non-binary.

As such, Amnesty International is calling for a prohibition of such systems, including where such systems are identified as exacerbating existing inequalities or creating new forms of discrimination.

I even spontaneously decided to do a lightning talk about eating ice cream wrong. What the hell a guy just drove onto a closing rail crossing while I’m writing this and I only just got back to boat city. Anyway; I had a lot of fun, come to piwo next year! Log onto piwo right now. Go to piwo. Dive into piwo. You can piwo.sh it. It’s on piwo.sh. Piwo has it for you. Piwo has it for you.

The novel systemd utilities reimplemented in a distro (and kernel!) agnostic way and fully stand-alone. Their tmpfiles.d implementation is particularly impressive.
