Someone give this woman a bible:
Render therefore unto Caesar the things which are Caesar’s, and unto God the things that are God’s.
systemd devs successfully rage baited you and a bunch of others. It’s time to let it go.
But if you don’t want to, let me ask, how do you think a data field with no connection to any access control subsystem, is going to prevent anyone from logging in?
Neither does systemd. They are optional.
LDAP has had a birth date field for like 20 years now. Is it “complicit” as well?
Which part of the “Linux philosophy” does systemd “violate”.
The scope creep exponentially raises the efforts needed to properly test, troubleshoot, secure, and just generally work with the project code.
I keep seeing these words, “scope creep”, in this thread, and I don’t think most people understand what they mean.
The scope of systemd is an init and service manager, and any basic service required for a minimal, coherent system to work. If you think that it goes too far, then we should be talking about the Linux kernel and all the stuff it has that could run on userland and doesn’t, or coreutils, which essentially is the shell equivalent to systemd without the integration.
In the same sense a database is complicit.
Not sure what’s annoying about logind, but udev was introduced eight years before systemd was a thing.
A single binary? What?
Systemd changing from text to binary logs is my pet peeve.
Fast searchable compressed files is a fantastic idea.


You meant “the number of new projects that will soon be abandoned”.


The draw is fixed. There have been multiple instances of this, most notably France 98, where, as Platini declared years after, they deliberately put France in group C and Brazil in group A, so they wouldn’t meet until the finals.
How dare they. We should also demand that they bring back support for i386 and SUN-4.
