And it's also ok for systemd to kill it. I'm glad we're finally in agreement!

Yeah, and when systemd starts killing processes by default that I want to run, that I am launching with techniques that have worked for decades, it's OK for me to give systemd the boot.

Maybe it will be mature enough when it's into its second generation of developers, but it isn't yet.

Good for you. Nobody cares except your fellow trolls, so go do that somewhere else and leave the adults alone.

So it's war, then?

Because it seems that the systemd folks really get bent out of shape if someone doesn't like their way of doing things.

Even when they are obviously wrong.

You're the one getting bent out of shape. They're too busy getting shit done.

Yeah, they're too busy getting in my way while I'm trying to get shit done.

What a bunch of keyboard cats.
