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!

            At least it's not over 4x USB 3.0 A Ports.

            I've seen PCIe x4 passed over it too. Don't even want to know how everything shits itself when you get the ordering wrong on one side...

            Edit: The intended design was to split it out to 4 different devices but using 4 cables to pass it to the same device was also listed as a supported scenario though.

                              @ar to be fair hdmi and displayport are the only standards for relatively cheap copper aka non fiber cables with very high bandwidth and many pins/cables in one connector and cable. Hdmi is usually chosen since it's the more common of the two by being in all tv's and thus often a bit cheaper. So hdmi plugs and ports being used for completely different data signals happens like with those cheap egpu docks providing a mini pcie or nvme to a hdmi port output adapter and then a dock with a hdmi port. This makes it cheap for the cable carrying pcie. As for why they don't use those pcie connectors like mcio etc, that's because it costs more and they usually aren't designed to survive as many plug in and out cycles as hdmi. Of course the biggest problem is that it can't be used on anything for the average consumer.

                                                                                                        Dave's head smoothly rotated 180 degrees, like an owl. The typing did not stop.

                                                                                                        Dave just smiled as Bill's jaw dropped in abject horror.

I think it would need to, otherwise people would just keep using them, regardless of the user's browser preference.

They're designed so that a user can easily accept or reject by visually scanning the screen, but screen readers and their users don't benefit from that intuitive design, so we have to spend extra time locating the buttons (which are occasionally links). On the computer that's easy; we just press b a couple of times. On the phone, that's a lot more steps. A good modal will go away when you press escape, but I think anyone in this space knows the likelihood of web designers using good web design practices.
                                                                                                                                The good news is that the extra time allows me to think really hard about whether I want a website to track me or not, so I usually end up pressing the "reject all" button.

The RP Pico set the size of the build at 60mm, and ~8mm for the screen felt about right.

I used Watchtower for years but that's no longer under active development (Their is a fork though I haven't had a closer look at yet). Watchdog had more sophisticated features when it came to pre- and post-update calls I believe. But it does a reasonable job and has a nice Web Interfaces to control multiple agents on remote hosts.

But that's a price I'm willing to pay to haven dozens of containers successfully updated automatically. I'm trying to pin the major versions of containers and hope the owners respect the semantic versioning scheme.

We are here among friends who share interests and passions, without geography or borders, apart from those defined by mutual respect.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  Your Barista is more energised than ever.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  During the past year, he had to retire one of the services, BlendIT, our Lemmy instance, but he also added several new ones: Journal, based on WordPress, Billboard, running on NodeBB, the Delta Chat relay, and more.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  He also had to withdraw from BSDCan, with enormous regret, but he is now ready for EuroBSDCon. And for other new things that will gradually follow.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  For example, here is a small preview: I have been experimenting with MeshCore.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  My dream? One or more BSD Cafe services that do not use the Internet at all. I already have a few ideas, so I shall not disclose anything more for now 😉

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  And I will never grow tired of repeating that the BSD Cafe is a success because of you.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  I am just the Barista, but a place like this is nothing without the friends sitting at the bar. And the friends of this bar are wonderful people who, every day, help make my days calmer, happier and more interesting.
