I didn't follow the systemd vs. sysv war closely, and for a long time was content that I barely managed to remember the new syntax for starting and stopping services when the distributions I used switched to systemd. In the last couple of days, I became a fan. Not for the many reasons which anyone can look up. But for systemd-nspawn, an awesome tool for spawning lightweight containers. For instance, you can boot an ephemeral (tmpfs) copy of your system with systemd-nspawn -D / -xb.
