Sure it is now, but it was not always. Gentoo didnt just spring forth from the aether full-grown.
pre-alpha
The period of pre-0.1 that I reference above, ended in 2002 with the release of 0.1 Alpha. This is back when the idea of adding a binary installer was controversial in the gentoo community. That was 24 years ago, in case you are following along. So going on about the current state of Gentoo is not super relevant. I am glad it is better, but I am old enough to remember when it was a pretty gnarly ball of yarn and that is what I mentioned.
This reminds me of something I might have said of pre-alpha Gentoo days.

China’s stated objective is to make these drills become indistinguishable from a real attack so that Taiwan becomes complacent and even ceases to defend against them. These are one of the many sub-threshold hybrid warfare attacks being carried out by Russia and China.

He just wants to distract from the pedo stuff again.
Honeywell licenses their name for consumer products. They dont actually make that stuff anymore.
They sold the rights to make the magic wand about a decade ago. No longer Hitachi, alas.
“Gasoline-powered motorbikes are used widely in Hanoi, making them a major source of air pollution,” the city’s department of agriculture and environment official Le Thanh Thuy told local media on Dec 11.
The city will impose partial bans on gasoline-powered motorbikes in downtown areas from mid-2026 and will gradually expand the ban thereafter to fossil-fuel-powered cars.

The XDG Base Directory Specification is based on the following concepts:
There is a single base directory relative to which user-specific data files should be written. This directory is defined by the environment variable $XDG_DATA_HOME.
There is a single base directory relative to which user-specific configuration files should be written. This directory is defined by the environment variable $XDG_CONFIG_HOME.
There is a single base directory relative to which user-specific state data should be written. This directory is defined by the environment variable $XDG_STATE_HOME.
There is a single base directory relative to which user-specific executable files may be written.
There is a set of preference ordered base directories relative to which data files should be searched. This set of directories is defined by the environment variable $XDG_DATA_DIRS.
There is a set of preference ordered base directories relative to which configuration files should be searched. This set of directories is defined by the environment variable $XDG_CONFIG_DIRS.
There is a single base directory relative to which user-specific non-essential (cached) data should be written. This directory is defined by the environment variable $XDG_CACHE_HOME.
There is a single base directory relative to which user-specific runtime files and other file objects should be placed. This directory is defined by the environment variable $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR.
The respondents said that overall, China is outpacing Korea in price competitiveness, productivity and government support. They added that the U.S. has greater competitiveness over Korea in brand power, key personnel and core technologies.

The article presumably continues beyond the pay wall.
