    if the powers with your government in their pocket want things differently, it will be so.

    and there are also contributors who moreover have sys admin experience over hundreds of systems, whose common sense and experience is being ignored due to political methods employed by those with no engineering sense but who have large megaphones

    Yes there is, non-systemd distros have shim packages with systemd calls so the normal wares that now depend on systemd

    Nobody points to a typical PC and says "THIS IS AN OPEN ARCHITECTURE". But for some reason they lie about the pi

    This star believed to have large amounts of dust remains of broken up comets orbiting it with high eccentricity (very elliptical as opposed to more circular). Yawn.

    The alternative is so much more exciting, provocative, brain invigorating: "Now I'm not saying it was mega-engineering by aliens, BUT IT WAS MEGA..."

    Raspberry Pi is not an open, depends on closed source blobs in firmware and drivers. Stop spreading the lie

    because people could even install both X11 and wayland and run one or the other depending on what mood they're in. no lock-in to anything.

    wrong, it would be properly maintainable and debuggable Unix-type subsystem if it only did that.

    but poettering and his followers have urban sprawl and scope creep, building a monolithic bloated pile that is NOT the unix way and is a nightmare to debug

    You are so funny, your stupidity and street ignorance would get you killed in short order. Most of the police shootings are of dangerous scum that richly deserved it, Fergusson's "Gentle Giant" included

    and a couple thousand people at least have been electrocuted to death by Tazer, but Taser Intl. sends clouds of lawyers and money toting persuaders to get coroners and judges to rewrite cause of death.

    not as non-lethal as most imagine. more like usually non-lethal

  14. You are so funny, Mexico has extremely strict gun laws. A peaceful gun-crime free paradise, isn't it

    When I travel in asia there are a couple nice peaceful countries with a fraction of the crime rate of USA but the cops have submachine guns.

    You are mistaken. The sole purpose of a company is to make money for the owners. Owners (which includes shareholders in the case of publicaly traded company) are number one. Nothing else makes sense. Customers if given the chance would take everything, humans have unlimited wants.
