"How does journalctl fare in terms of having a trigger set up to automatically do things with logs when they're inserted?" - can you imagine just how much more shit would be poured onto systemd if the journal did that? It already get 100% unjustified bullshit from the ignorants already trying to say it does more than one thing
"His point is that you have more reasonable options for a server Linux system than a distribution that has adopted an opaque init system like systemd that is being pushed largely by the desktop crowd" - what makes you think that, it benefits servers (mainlyIn cloud setups with a large number of VMs or containers), embedded as well as desktop. You can bet that Red Hat wouldn't make it a core piece of RHEL7 if it wasn't a reliable and safe option for managing services on servers.
"That Gnome have had problems supporting non-systemd distros was because those distros didn't care to maintain ConsoleKit. Gnome kept on supporting CK despite it having been abandoned for +1½ year with no upstream to provide bug-fixes or security fixes." that was definitely Gnomes fault. LPoettering actually gave them a library to avoid using logind but they decided not to use it
The journal is brilliant, anyone who says it isn't needs their head examined.
A Volt isn't new tech, Toyota have had a hybrid for years so a Volt is not breaking any new ground plus they already have manufacturing plants. So i would hope its half the price.
Because its a new industry/market. Tesla receives a fraction of the subsidies the OLD fossil fuel industries (the ones that shouldn't need any after at least 100 years in business).
"it's constantly subject to rounding error when we do any computation" - what are you using to do the rounding? Computers are pretty good at accuracy when programmed properly.
i'd rather have that lackey checking i'm getting the correct measure and not being ripped off. I don't fancy taking my own measure around with me to check.
that may work in the US but won't in the UK as a "pint" is also a cultural thing in the pub. it would probably be the very last thing to get metric, if at all.
Whats is superior a out these imperial fractional calculations? Whats 89/100 of 1 yard, 1 foot, 1 mile, or 7/10 of a pint, gallon etc etc? They'll all give very imprecise looking answers when you don't use a fraction that suits the measurement.
"I will also continue to argue that, while the metric system is great for math/science, it's actually not as good for some things in day-to-day life." - that is only because you are not brought up in a metric only environment. For example, go to France and all those things you quote as being better in imperial will make no sense to them. you don't need math to use metric on a day to day basis unless you want to convert to imperial.
one good place where it can make sense is in places like cooking e.g. 10 grams of strawberry will become 10ml of juice when blitzed so if you come across a recipe that says 10ml of strawberry juice and you only have fresh strawberries, then its easy to work out.
"Having to redo all of that to metric for every property as it changes hands through sale or inheritance would be a nightmare." - not in this day and age, we do have computers now.....
Its a bit like that in the UK as well, i expect it will only completely metric once all the "old dogs who can't learn new tricks" and the "nationalists who don't want that foreign nonsense" finally die off.

you need to check the dictionary

fuck me... software has bugs, now who would have thought it..... I take it FreeBSD doesn;t have any bugs
How is Devuan going, not heard about it for ages.
I guess you typed out what was in your own head while you were talking to yourself.. ppssttt it is "you're talking about"

How many people could afford mobile phones when they first came out?
". actually alot of people do" and a lots more don't.
"nor do most folks even think of mileage due to they just fill up when low" - maybe they should
for the benefit of the rest of us, whats the financial split in those figures you see?
I want what you are smoking... only $500m for fossil fuels..... http://www.theguardian.com/env...
and this is just the coal industry over 8 years http://cleantechnica.com/2015/...

its closer to 2.54cm per inch or do prefer to tell your girlfriend you have a 15.24cm dick? :o)

how is that post flamebait? Must have been marked by someone who doesn't know metric

Come to the UK and temperature is in Celsius when its cold and Fahrenheit when its hot.
