That would only justify killing francophone orcs.

What, the bird & baby?

Given how Fujitsu was able to make competitive SPPARC64 models for Oracle, it was unlikely to be an ISA issue, and more a design and manufacturing issue....

If they're 10, tell them that literally anything they type into their device is being stored for parental review. No expectation of privacy.

Obviously, this'll have to change at around 16, but those conversations need to happen anyway.


The issue isn't drinking; if the motor vehicle operator age was 21, then the drinking age could be 16. But it isn't.

Should they ever reboot Die Hard; it'll need a sequence involving CA HSR infrastructure.


Die Hard: The most expensive mile


They need to do a post-apocalyptic movie with a scene set in Fresno with unfinished CA HSR viaducts hulking in the background against a polluted orange sky.


The problem with post-apocalyptic films set in Fresno is that the local audience will be challenged to find things depicted that are different, nevermind worse.


Font is nowhere near as nice as Elston/Volvo Broad; but I suppose it's better for touchscreens. My advice for Volvo:

1.) Go back to actual buttons/dials (with the old font, please)

2.) Fix the comically bad horrifying electronics issues the new models have.


Sir, this is a Wendy's.

If you want all-singing, all-dancing opaque binaries to handle every conceivable configuration eventuality, MacOS and Windows are <-- that way. Or, you could have patience, and sometime soon systemd will likely expand to cover your use-case.


On MacOS I remember many .plist files but no binary config files. The .plist format looks similar to XML.

I like the .ini format used by systemd (and do not have an opinion about the overall quality of systemd).


Feel free to implement system utilities in whichever language you feel will completely eliminate the possibility of bugs.

I wait with bated breath.


"error-prone" means bugs are more likely than the alternatives. It doesn't mean that the alternatives completely eliminate the possibility of bugs. Come on.


I wonder what the tally is for "things posted to HN that'll replace bash/ksh/zsh in every respect REAL Soon Now". It's a genre of post unto itself.


What language is Systemd written in? I'm pretty sure it's not Bash.


I've never been able to use systemd as a command interpreter.


An init system doesn't need to be a command interpreter. Why are you being so obtuse?


It doesn't need to be, but there are some advantages in being able to have system startup scripts in the same language that you do one-liners in at the terminal.


Unironically, yes.

Now get back to work.
