  • Have you considered that just “reaping old process IDs” wasn’t enough responsibility for an init daemon on a secure, robust system? That maybe it should be protecting other parts of the system and tracking the liveness of a desired service?

    What is the benefit of specifically doing that in init?

    If I see an argument like this then I can only assume the interlocutor doesn’t do software engineering.

    Its more likely that the user simply has simple needs like running stuff at startup which any init system can do and doesn’t see as much benefits as poster.

    Also who loves systemd-resolved?

    No. The loss from ridiculous misuse insofar as food (not soda) is small but meaningful and basically worth nothing because typically “exposure” isn’t worth anything whatsoever. Worse it might convince some other assholes with the same strategy to specifically target your joint magnifying their loss.

    It’s funny that you who have run nothing know better than every company.




  • Normal people should either buy a computer with Linux just like they would windows or Mac or google model of computer + Linux before buying.

    Its weird to compare apples not only to oranges but to moldy oranges when this isn’t the actual user experience.

    People who do continue to use Linux don’t just keep buying random hardware and hoping it works because they have search engines.

    No onboarding process with randomly chosen hardware with hostile OEM is ever going to be good enough for people who are stupid lazy and cheap.
