So SystemD is taking over all functions like the Pigs took over the farm. Some animals protested and were pushed down or killed when they spoke out. Why Orwell is doing the pushing down… The media?
It’s just jan 4 and it seems the systemd jokes have already run out for this year. I for one haven’t seen all those “systemd bad” posts/comments/blogs/whatever. Instead there are tons, TONS of “gnome bad”, “kde bloated”, “wayland bad/xorg good” posts/comments/blogs/whatever, but god forbid if someone says something about systemd.
This post smells like burnt toast
There comment history smells like old Linux admin.
They recommend Sea monkey and Palemoon.
Criticisms of systemd say it does too much, so maybe every basic animal on the farm is systemd? Orwell is complaining about how the pig is overly complicated for a farm animal.
If I really break it down, I guess the author is saying that while it could be cool to have talking pigs, they have no place in a production farm. The average Linux admin doesn’t want tools that can do everything, they just need the thing done??
IDK, feels overly heavy for the delivery.
Is Orwell the systemd devs?
I suppose Orwell is supposed to be the average user?
Orwell, the user, is a supervisord pleb that already understands the limitations of sysinit but their inability to read some man pages results in them writing a long-ass book instead.
I have written long-ass reports to try explaining shit, only to find myself understanding the manual. I think it’s part of learning.
I was referencing the lengthy screeds against systemd that appear on the internet - those do not strike me as being productive for learning systemd - they appear to me to be justifications against trying to learn the thing. Is this the style of writing that has helped you or were you unaware of what I was referencing?
My apologies, I took time to try explaining something better to people than the man pages and ending up better appreciating them.
I was referencing articles doing the opposite of what you’ve done, then.
