He convinced Gnome and other things to depend on it. He presents an API with a built in dependency hazard and claims it's no problem. He made it so it fails if it isn't PID 1.
That is not helped at all by the attitude of the courts. Don't have transportation? Too bad. Parking costs more than the 'expenses' check that was adequate in 1960? Too bad. Can't afford to take time off? Too bad. Won't have a job when it's over? Too bad. Single parent and the babysitter died in the living room? Too bad. Work the night shift? Too bad, be here at 8:00 A.M.
That's part of the problem. Law and court aren't supposed to be a game of "Mother May I" but it's being turned in to one. Nothing in the Constitution suggests that a magic incantation must be uttered.
Before systemd sprouted tendrils of dependency everywhere, I ignored it entirely. He had his little project and that was fine.
I really don't care what he wrote or didn't, but the political manipulation to force it into everything is highly objectionable.
So the real problem is his insistence on wiping every other init off the face of the Earth. If he will kindly knock it off, I will return to not caring what he does with his project.
That's the problem. Systemd was quite uncontroversial (and mostly ignored) back when it was a simple matter to just not use it. So he has somehow managed to get things like the Gnome desktop to depend on it. In other words, people wouldn't adopt it willingly so it's being wedged in so it will be harder to pull it out and replace it.
That's because the first two could be fixed with kill -9. The latter is being crammed down people's throats with what appears to be politically motivated promiscuous dependencies.
Big surprise, try to cram things down people's throats and they come to hate you.
Because when Apple's plans changed, they became obligated to pay that 578 million back. Apparently even the part they already spent preparing to ramp up production for Apple.
I agree. The truly great cartoons were those that were also meant for adults to enjoy. Though not a Saturday morning toon, the spirit lasted a while longer due to the Powerpuff Girls. Once again, produced for all ages.
I still can't resist a Tick moment on laundry day.
Actually, in the '60s and '70s all of that was Saturday morning fare. It was bundled up into an hour long show with a small bit of newly done 'glue' to hold it together. It was re-runs, but all new for the audience they targeted. The various cartoons came and went, but the Warner toons were a constant.
They also (for some reason) assumed that repairing the link required building a new link alond a new path. I can't imagine why they believed that to be common.
They also didn't factor in that it often costs more to make a repair RIGHT NOW than it does to repair it sometime this week.
I'll second the bike lanes, and I don't mean a 3 inch wider shoulder on the road. I have ridden a bike on the roads perfectly legally and it was damned scary. I'm not sure what's worse, the screeching tires behind me or the people whizzing by 10 MPH over the limit 4 inches from my left knee.
My finding though is that the expensive hotels feel like bargain basement other than expensive fixtures while the cheaper places tend to be quite nice but with average fixtures. The cheap hotel tends to have quiet rooms, good A/C. decent buffet breakfast, etc. The expensive places have a chandelier in the lobby but broken A/C, noisy elevator you hear in the room, and pricey but mediocre food.
ISM is unLICENSED. That means that you don't need a license to operate in that band as long as you obey the regulations in place. Those regulations cover radiated power and intentionbbal interferance (which is MUCH different than unintentional interference.
If your baby monitor causes trouble for my WiFi (or vice versa), that is unintentional. OTOH, if you get a baby monitor and a parabolic antenna with the intention of interfering with my WiFi you are violating regulations (but it may be hard to prove). If you get a WiFi and send deauth packets to my hardware it becomes easier to prove willful interference. If you change channels when I change channels it is very easy to prove.
That is the basis of my political disillusionment. The target is right there. Obama can wipe it out with the stroke of a pen. It's his chance to strike back at the Tea party's whining that we can't afford to provide healthcare. He could just wipe out the domestic spying and it's costs. He could stop the foreign wars that cost trillions. With a stroke of his pen.
But he hasn't. He hasn't even threatened to.
I can only conclude that illegal domestic spying and spending all our money on killing people has bipartisan support.
According to TFA, the researchers stated clearly that the loss of the sense of smell is most likely a symptom of a condition that leads to death rather than being a direct cause. However, they cannot rule out the latter based on the research.
It doesn't work that way. It is also illegal to make shit up in court. Their only legal option at that point is to not testify at all. If that means no prosecution, so be it. That is what the law actually demands.
The reasoning is simple. The NSA is the actual accuser which the defendant has a right to face. The FBI's testimony is merely hearsay which is not permissible.

Yeah, sure. I whip together organizations like Debian every single day before my first cup of coffee. It's really easy to say.

No wonder people resent it.

The problem is, the actual conversation went:
I think this is better!
No, and here's why
Well, I'm doing it anyway!
Fine, have fun.
So you'll use it?
No, I won't. But gave fun anyway.
Well now, X,Y, and Z REQUIRE it. You will use it or else! So Nyahhhhhhh!
FOAD!
Yes, the whole hitman thing is over the top (and in fact is a crime if they move beyong the internet tough guy stage).

He has foisted systemd on a bunch of people who don't want it. Now he expects those same people to send him flowers?
People tried polite conversation. Failing that they suggested he take his ball and go home. Failing that, hate mail.

It's funny you were so quick to jump on any small matter that you missed that we can easily fix that up with simple math and the point still stands.
Feel free to average .88 and .96 together and see that it is still an increase over the previous period.

I do hope I'm not the only one who can't help giggling when the news turns to the Middle East these days.
Perhaps Shazam can help?
Do you prefer tattletale?
It seems very kindergarten, but perhaps that really is the maturity level we're dealing with.

Or convert a portion of the buses and optionally, make the long haul buses plug in hybrids rather than just electric.

ISM is very much regulated. Get a new legal team.

If thaty was the case, they could just say so in court. It's not illegal to accept a tip from random people who stumble upon a crime.
