Does not surprise me in the slightest. The mask for Keir is starting to slip for the public. While they were rightly keen to move on from the previous government, they didn’t really kick the tires and see the autocratic nature in which he and his team run the party. For example, suspending thousands of members for years, frequently without stating why, due to them being on the left of the party.

The guy also hired a former Israeli spy to a prominent position.

Point taken. Saves me some clicking!

Great talk on SystemD for those that are interested: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=o_AIw9bGogo&pp=2AHFBpACAQ%3D%3D

1. no. Processes have a life cycle other than init. Fire and forget with bash scripts is backwards.

2. I am no expert on this and could not do this answer justice. A quick search will provide a better and more detailed answer. That is if you are willing to consider that SystemD provides benefits. The way you wrote your question gives me vibes that you do not want to, so this debate would be fruitless.

If you’re genuinely curious Benno Rice has a great talk on SystemD: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=o_AIw9bGogo&pp=2AHFBpACAQ%3D%3D

Lol. You went from Windows user to extreme Arch user in a very short period of time (SystemD hate).

There is Alpine and Void Linux which are commonly known of and used. Plus more: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Linux_distributions_without_systemd

Most distros independently decided that SystemD was superior. They had a choice and they chose. Distros are often maintained by volunteers in their free time. Same with software that depends on it. Expecting them to provide poor irrelevant choices is not how open source works. You’re passing on your backbreaking work onto other people. If you want another option, you give your time to make it happen.

SystemD is not an init system. It provides that functionality, but processes have more life cycle steps than just initialize.

When you accept that, you realise that you cannot compare them.

SystemD provides functionality that they don’t. Of course those that refuse to consider this will just claim it’s bloat. To some DE’s are bloat.

No, but to have food shopping budget split amonsts them is illogical.

You go shopping without money in your account?

Don’t need them. Halifax has online banking in a browser. When they merged with Lloyd’s, they moved systems so I’m assuming it’s the same for Lloyd’s.

I personally would go with the previous model, and the A version. When 7 came out, I got a 6A for £299 new. Wouldn’t spend much more unless I had to.

Why would I sign up to a community I don’t agree with? I’m just not that much of a snowflake and think freedom of speech is important.

Seeing views other than your own makes you more confident in your own views and your ability to challenge them. Echo chambers existing in other social media isn’t good. I moved away from reddit and don’t want Lemmy to replicate the worst of it.

Why should everyone sign up the multiple accounts because your want to impose your views on others?

Well if you like .world because they defederated. Great. It gives people an actual choice. You have your instance with your desired federation policy. I have mine. Don’t take my freedoms away. Why do you have skin in the game here? I think I’ve seen hexbear content twice since I started on Lemmy during the API blackout.
