    “I hate systemd, it’s bloated and overengineered” people stay, perched precariously on their huge tower of shell scripts and cron jobs.

      And built poorly by people who don’t work well with others and then payola’ed onto the world.

      Fucking UNIX is shell scripts and cron jobs, skippy. Add xinetd and you’re done.

      huge tower of shell scripts and cron jobs.

      That’s bloat. I start all my services manually according to my needs. Why start cupsd BEFORE I need to print anything?
