My smart phone automatically silences from the Bluetooth speakers when I plug in my headphones. When I'm listening to my headphones and remove them, the music automatically pauzes. It thinks for me, and I think it is great! I can also

It is binary so you can quickly filter (indexes). E.g. on service, but any field is possible. You can output it in json. systemctl gives you the last lines of service output exactly because of the indexes + binary file. Using json for that

Various features that systemd exposes have no equivalent in other kernels. This makes it impossible. He also explained various times why he refuses non-complete portability patches. This because you get more ifdefs and those are difficult t

You can easily pause pulseaudio while the Jack program is running. I saw the development discussion to make that happen automatically. Further, there are various ways to do that. Seems at most a problem with how it is integrated in your dis

Devices come and go. This is explained in the linked article…

Your comparison makes no sense at all. E.g. systemd dependencies are minimal. My take: if he builds a bicycle it would be lean, fast and he'd analyse all existing designs to make that happen.

Please provide reasoning how it is ok to distribute it. CDDL is incompatible with GPL. Distributing that would allow your distribution to be sued for copyright violation. http://zfsonlinux.org/faq.html#WhatAboutTheLicensingI

If the licenses are incompatible, then you cannot ship them together. Calling that FUD is a bit rich! Try going through the process at Fedora. The legal team will stop you. Licenses allow you to distribute things despite copyright. Usually

I don't like various of their decisions, but at the same time wish them all the best. For a phone they're focused on doing their own thing. Really unfortunate for cross distro cooperation, but when I use a smart phone is important

What systemd problems? Please elaborate.

Those init.d scripts are different per distribution. With systemd the same thing is provided in a configuration file. Much simpler, clearer and understandable. Further, "service $FOO status" actually shows you stderr+stdout output

Systemd provides various things that desktop environments want to use. This is not limited to GNOME. I talked to Enlightment and they're going to make more use of various bits (e.g. user session). Similar with KDE. Dismissing it entire

But FSF/GNU contributions are guaranteed to stay under a Free Software license. Canonical is not similar. Not at all the same situation. Further, IMO FSF/GNU/Mozilla are also bad for requesting this.

The complexity is there, you just don't see it. Systemd handles all types of services. Sysvinit does not. Systemd abstracts a lot, making it easier per service (by putting more in systemd). In sysvinit a lot is copy/pasted acros

Why turn things around? Systemd makes Linux specific features available. Nobody ever complained about FreeBSD having jails. Yet there are complaints that Linux has Linux-only features. So by using your FreeBSD jail example: Because there ar

What happened with GNOME is accurately described by myself in: http://blogs.gnome.org/ovitters/2013/10/10/wayland-vs-usrsha... http://blogs.gnome.org/ovitters/2013/09/25&#x

What you're saying is utterly incorrect, speaking as a GNOME release team member. Pretty poor to first complain about moving goalposts, yet at the same time misrepresent what was done. In the beginning of 2012 (Jan/Feb) I highligh

A lot of Uncertainty and Doubt you're raising there... I'm wondering if you actually used systemd?

The original person (maybe you, too lazy to check) was worried about millions of users. So I talked about a GUI, not a CLI. The CLI has existed for a long time as mentioned by someone else.

Right, so Bash is Unix right? Bash does tcp connections. Oops! Anyway, blindly following some theory is a bit strange. Systemd is several different components. Maybe you're heard of coreutils, kind of important on any Linux system. It

There have been various tools which have done this. And a lot had huge security bugs. Despite what you claim, this is also easily doable with journal plus similar solutions are available for journal.

As mentioned in many of the previous threads: Did you ever had to maintain services? Debug why openldap wouldn't startup? Then figure out what the actual command it would run? This all to get to the stdout&stderr output? While jour

The init system differed a lot across distributions. Systemd made it more the same within distributions. Solaris uses something systemd like. *BSD use their own thing. I don't get what you're complaining about, the fragmentation h

It's systemd. The way the project is spelled has been explained multiple times. Your criticism is bit weak if you insist on spelling things incorrectly seemingly on purpose. Gives the impression you might also not be completely showing

Millions of users will have "Logs", an UI for the journal. Because journal logs more and allows more things, the UI will be more useful. Easy to do with journal (log attributes with each message), impossible with "/var&#

Being really clear that some suggestion is not right at all is totally different than getting personal. He's German and really direct regarding technical suggestions. Doesn't make him personal or rude.
