We used to have 100% "state Internet" until the early nineties. Yet I don't see much difference in innovation since the Internet got opened up to commercial operators.
With things like overlayfs or btrfs snapshots, no, containers are not just replicating things over and over. If you want to run services in isolation, they make perfect sense.
Look, the nuclear industry* has promised us a pony that turned out to glow in the dark and have two heads so many times, that the first time I will support a thorium-based reactor is if private industry develops and runs a prototype for 5 years in the CEO's backyard, not a moment sooner.
Meanwhile, in the real world, nuclear power relies heavily on subsidies, has a massive waste problem and is tied in with the political hairy problem of Proliferation.
The money wasted on new powerplants might as well be spent researching power storage solutions.
*NOTE: I said industry. I am not against nuclear power per se, but the current industry is a malicious beast that massively overpromises and underdelivers, and it has to die and reconstructed before I will take nuclear power seriously as an alternative.
The problem with this argument is that it isn't clear-cut.
If you are trying to fight what you see as an occupying power, and you target their civilian support infrastructure besides their military assets, are you a freedom fighter or a terrorist?
And no, this is not theory, this was the entire justification of the Provisional IRA's attacks against Loyalist civilians.
The initramfs has to handle all degraded arrays, otherwise they will be marked inactive, and not mounted. The right place to fix issues with degraded arrays being marked inactive (and thus umountable) is in the initramfs.
Which the Debian maintainer admitted; it was his change in the initramfs scripts that marked the arrays inactive and made them fail to mount.
Again, you are so bound up in your systemd hate that you fail to read.
And once again a systemd opponent proves to be an idiot or a liar. Handling a degraded array and making it bootable has always been the job of the initramfs. See this Debian bug dealing with this issue, for example, where the maintainer himself admits so.
It is really strange how for some reason disregarding well-founded statements and just saying that there is a hidden reason why they don't fit seem to be common among systemd opponents and crazy right-wingers.
Given the amount of invective coming out of the anti-systemd camp, complaining about mild epithets like 'whiners' also sounds a lot like the standard alt-right tactic "Yes, but you're the real racists|sexists|whatever".
In other words, snowflake, shut up and come back when you have actual hard facts to show.
But 'who to piss off least' is a factual assertion masquerading as an opinion. There is simply no proof that systemd pisses off more people than SysV. Given that we don't see a massive rise in BSD usage, that Red Hat senior officers say they see no impact on RHEL7 deployments and that Devuan is not advancing in any meaningful way, there is in fact a strong possibility that systemd pisses of a majority of loud whiners, but that is not the same.
Well [FaceBook and Google] did get off the ground without Net Neutrality
Do you have to work at being this stupid? Net Neutrality was the reality when Facebook and Google got started. It only got codified into regulations when ISPs like Comcast started breaking it.
When it was 8" and 5 1/4" media, it was the entire assemblage which was called "floppy", because it was. 3.5" disks only got the name as a kind of legacy, because by then the term had become more or less interchangeable with 'removable low-capacity magnetic storage'.
Really, is it so hard to just admit you were wrong?
Sigh. That's 7 billion not adjusted for inflation, for the final project of centuries of hydrological engineering. Just because you keep your eyes closed does not mean the rest of us is stupid.
No, they're pointing out that the Right has always been hypocritical about 'States' Rights'. Shenanigans like this just prove that it always has been about one thing: enshrining bigotry in law.
Read: Europe no longer saw a reason to prop up the US economy by spending billions on the worst US equipment the Pentagon doesn't even want.
Some of us here remember that the US Military-Industrial Complex has resorted to bribery and using the State Department as their sales arm.
What, lend them money at easy credit terms and help build up their country?
Good. Then you should not have trouble producing at least one. My GP post already did, so until you do, I'm going to go with "it works".
Facts. Lovely things.

Thank you for nicely proving my point.
By declaring independence and kicking the Spanish out?

Ah. I see. You're just stupid then.
Word salad is not the unassailable argument you think it is. Then again, you probably can't do any better.
You do realise that engaging in the 'tu quoque' fallacy is admitting your side is wrong, right?
Yeah, that's how you end up with crappy JunOS instead of just fine Netscreen OS.

All I see is opinion. Again.
In other words, just like all other anti-systemd idiots you have nothing concrete and you are just parotting your echo chamber.

Really, is it so hard to just admit you were wrong?
Really, no. The term "floppy disk" was coined when the medium was still encased in a flexible plastic sheath, not a hard cartridge as in 3.5" disks.
Sigh. That's 7 billion not adjusted for inflation, for the final project of centuries of hydrological engineering. Just because you keep your eyes closed does not mean the rest of us is stupid.
About the same, if you had paid any attention, only on a longer timescale.
