I'd say running something on boot tends to be similar for beginners with or without systemd. The support for drop-in configs, however, makes it easy to revert screw-ups without much effort. In addition, the fact that one does not have

In my experience the performance is nearly the same as without. The code is fairly optimised. And I agree: one could use systemd-sysext with something like rpm-ostree to create very robust systems with selective immutability.

I think this is what the Macedonians and the Romans did end up doing. By the time of the Romans, Sparta was a glorified "theme park", for lack of a better word.

That's not going to be true of metadata, though. A malicious server could keep a lot of valuable metadata about you.

Just look at Parler. That's the same thing which happened there.

Edit: Sorry, I just realised what you mean. I don't know about iptables, but I've got nftables set to come up before the network is set up and it works perfectly fine without enp3s0 or wg0 having come up. The rules are set and the

You can, using the directives "Wants=network-pre.target" & "Before=network-pre.target". This will make sure the service is up before any network interface is configured. Source: https://www.freedesktop.org

You're not wrong, but things like a unified clipboard, continuity, the peace of mind which comes from knowing that there's a very small chance of malware coming in from the App Store, and (again my opinion) more polished indie app

I don't know about the other metrics you talk about, but iPhones _are_ the fastest. In general, I find iPhones better than Android for general use - but that's a subjective opinion. Apple provides the best overall package, even as

Entirely voluntary in the sense that flatpak enforces sandboxes which the application tells it to enforce. If the app asks for full system access flatpak doesn't deny that. It kind of destroys the purpose of a system built to run third

The best answer to this is probably the fediverse. I don't know how well it works today, but I think that's going to be the way to go now.

Debian's been on a 2-year release cadence since at least 2007. I agree, they don't come out like clockwork the way Ubuntu LTS editions or macOS do but they come out in the first half of the year they're supposed to. At worst

Sparta was an expansionist state. And it was fairly bad at being expansionist: there's a lovely description of Sparta's abysmal supply line management as opposed to Athens's at the same time. You should really go through that
