My point was that many who tried to avoid systemd found it to be very difficult, despite the vague assurances up front that it would be "optional." Now "the maintainers" (i.e., Lennart and friends) are contemplating maki

Unfortunately, it will probably take ten years to see the real effects of these decisions on the ecosystem. I hope you're right that this is the way to go, but I fear I'll be right that Linux will be at least as opaque as Windows

It seems possible until you realize that the IRS publicly apologized for targeting them and paid a settlement to 427 of the organizations. Four hundred twenty-seven is far beyond any random accident or mistake.

The one time I was robbed at gunpoint, there was video of the guy at a nearby gas station trying to use my cards. The cops said they got nothing useful from the video. I suspect that a lot of cameras are fairly useless in that sense.
