If you factor in the energy required to make the battery and the typical generation of electricity using coal, a modern Diesel-powered car is on par with an electric car in terms of CO2 exhaust.
Ok, I know its traditional the not read the article, or even the summary, but could you try reading the headline?
"France Wants to get rid of diesel fuel".
We don't make electricity from coal here, we make it from nice clean uranium.
If I was in situation in which licensing was critical to me I would use Gentoo since as far as I know it is only decent and recent distro that actually lets you choose init system to your liking.
Debian lets you choose systemd, sysvinit or upstart. If you want something else then start filing bugs and submitting packages and patches.
I've seen it recommended for firewalls -- set up the firewall then make all user process stop. (Can't remember how you stopped the kernel panicking when pid 0 exited).

This package is an essential metapackage which allows you to select from
three available init systems in Debian (systemd, sysvinit, upstart) while
ensuring that one of these is available on the system at all times.
ENIAC had no internally stored programs, To set it up for a new task, the operator had to set up plugs and switches to alter the wiring.
(ENIAC was later modified to use a program stored in what was effectively ROM, but that wasn't how it was originaly designed or built, and made it run slower as it stopped the parallel features working).

(OK a lot of France's power comes from nuclear now (39%?),
Well, if by 39% you mean 80% and by "now" you mean since the 1980's.

upstart?

Thanks, Ian.
The motivation is to have a Linux distribution which [...] doesn't require systemd.
That's called Debian.
From the wiki that is linked on the ugly website:
http://without-systemd.org/wiki/index.php/How_to_remove_systemd_from_a_Debian_jessie/sid_installation
That's worth a fork? Three shell commands?

No, the reason they are forking Debian is because they don't know how apt-get and aptitude work.
Clowns.

Ok, can we rename this whole mess "systemdgate" now?
When it comes to Debian unstable, anything that prevents a user's system from booting is completely unacceptable.
That is ridiculous.
It happens all the time -- that's why some of us run unstable, to find and fix these bugs before they get into stable.
My laptop went unbootable at least once in that time period.
(It wasn't an sysvinit bug, it was an mdadm bug).
Not that I'm complaining -- that's what I expect when running unstable.

Don't you understand?
Why then did Debian decide not to work on even a shim on systemd?

syslogd.
Next stupid question?
Shhhh. You're revealing yourself.
Ir's all about ethics in thhe choice of init systems.
Nothing any anti-systemd obsessive says "makes sense".
Each word was over two bytes long.
True, each 18 bit word was a little over three bytes long - the EDSAC used 5 bit characters.
A byte is the amount of memory used to store a character, not 8 bits.

Every time DNA is replicated, order is created.
No, it isn't.
The net entropy always increases.
Where is the entropy increase caused by the calculations in your wonderful zero energy superconducting computers?
We have no experience curing Ebola.
We have lots of experience trying to keep people alive while what's left of their immune system defeats the virus.
It helps if the people who catch it are fit and well before they catch it.

Baby (the SSEM) was the first stored-program, electronic, general purpose computer.
For the current definition of a computer Baby was the first computer.
Entropy.
You can't make order from disorder.
You can't do calculations without increasing entropy somewhere else.
