I don't really mind being contacted by recruiters and I'm not against using one, but the messages from recruiters about helpdesk work is starting to get really old.

my wife got an email from a marketing firm to set up an interview. she didn't have time to reply and an hour later they sent another one. she replied asking for more info. then they sent two more emails asking why she hadn't contacted them with the last one saying poo poo like "we're not good at taking subtle hints" and "if you don't reply to this we'll have to cut off all contact". red flags ahoy

I keep getting recruiter emails for .net work. I'm a embedded Linux emgineer and .net isnt on my resume at all. I even removed Windows from it.

I know nothing of .net. I have a huge amount of knowledge in Linux, and have made a career out of embedded platforms. I actually really like embedded Linux as well. up here .net developers are a dime a dozen. I would take less pay for more hassle in a field I am not familiar with.  that being said, I am not looking strictly for embedded. I have my RHCE as well.

mishaq posted:systemd is cool & good, we have a thread about this this is the correct answer (i use OE because it seems a bit more flexible than BR and a lot of things that used to use BR seem to have moved onto it. OE is a bit of a mess but it gets the job done. Hopefully it will be a bit less of a mess once based Poettering bathes the Linux world's inconsistent legacy crap in cleansing fire, but that is a process that will take many years)
