    its just called windows 8 (core) so effectively its "Home",. you can upgrade to it only from Win7 starter, home basic and home premium.

    thats down to the developers of the UI concerned, not the systemd developers. if any app becomes dependent on systemd, its down to the apps developers.

    Speak to Debian about their configuration, they may have not yet got it right. Red hat, opensuse, arch etc seem to be okay

    "don't forget that they're adding a bootloader now too" - its OPTIONAL like everything else (bar journald), do some research

    bollox definition of modular. does your app depending on a specific version glibc work as "modular"? Is the kernel modular?

    systemd only needs journald, everything else is configurable, do some research

    "There is no shortage of kids awaiting adoption. Until all of them are adopted, I don't think any of the in vitro techniques that we have in use today should have been allowed. Being a parent isn't about biology; it's about loving your children and taking care of them, regardless of who their genetic contributors were." - have you mentioned this to your wife or spoken to anyone that would prefer a child from their own body rather than adopting? I think you need to find out what women want before making that statement

    Considering there are loads of binaries already in the systemd project and only one runs in PID1, they are wrong

    "I can only assume it comes from the confusing naming collision in that the project Systemd" - i think you are correct, they should have named the project something else and not the name of the daemon. and because trolls are trolls, they don't do any research

    "Although, if I don't want key-less ignition - aka Push (Button|to) Start - (the systemD of automotive features), it seems I'm soon to be screwed, w/o an alternate vendor.

    "seems to be a bit of a hive" - while you are using terms like this, you'd best do some research to qualify it rather than reply on the trolls.
