no, I mean people who like collectible card games acknowledge that Artifact is a fun game to play, they just refuse to play it because they hate the monetization

seriously if systemd removed all the feature creep, 99% of complaints would go away I want a service manager and a cron replacement, not some lovely userspace/os takeover Poopernickel fucked around with this message at 21:38 on Feb 16, 2019 |

it's funny when something is successful because it's better than the alternatives but people still get mad about it for ideological reasons. these same people also get mad about codes of conduct. lol.

you know what we need? more shell scripts gotta keep those sysadmin divas employed somehow

Nobody's saying shell scripts are better than service files just that all the other poo poo isn't needed or good, and didn't improve anything. How is resolved with its takeover of /etc/resolv.conf and its hardcoded google DNS servers a good thing? And why should my service manager bundle it?

systemd should really sit atop Mach messages and service activation rather than DBus

i will agree that dbus as currently implemented is bad and am glad it didn't get baked into the kernel to thereby be bad forevermore

wasnt there a big to do around dbus and systemd

yeah lennart said “take kdbus drat it” and Linus said “omg this is awful no”

they should just incorporate Mach and use it for VM and message passing

there was a reason, but it's been a while so i dont remember. something with guaranteeing order/locking or something that only the kernel could do reliably

I thought Steam Machines where dead but looking at the Steam store I see a couple of them there. Early last year they purged them from the Steam store so I thought they gave up on the project. So I thought SteamOS was a console distro without a console.

AF_UNIX sockets suck, but they're already in the kernel and they already work they would have worked fine for systemd tbh, but instead loonert introduced a big external redhat-developed dependency because ~*ReAsOnS*~, and then tried to stuff it into the kernel Poopernickel fucked around with this message at 00:32 on Feb 17, 2019 |
