So pay your fucking taxes already. There is no way the rest of us are going to subsidize you at the rate of 36 billion euros a year.

(Actually, now we've got you to pay off all the debt you owed to our private banks we're going to throw you to the wolves any day now).

He's answered that question multiple times. Why bother asking it again? Just because you don't like the answer?

No. Systemd has no kernel code, it uses standard Linux interfaces, open to all. Even if kdbus goes in it will not be reserved to systemd.

True even without the "overall"

No. systemd read the /proc/cmdline file, a linux interface available to all user-level programs. It also wrote to the system log, a linux interface available to all user level programs running as root. Systemd included no code in the kernel

As the systemd team didn't ask for any code to be included in the kernel (then) there was no question of Linus accepting it or not. He claimed he would refuse any code submissions from Kay, who hadn't made any submissions for over a year.

No.

Next question?

Not only is your interpretation of Linus's feelings absurd:

"When it comes to systemd, you may expect me to have lots of colourful opinions, and I just don't," Torvalds told iTWire in an interview. "I don't personally mind systemd, and in fact my main desktop and laptop both run it.

-- Linus Torvalds

But your claims of systemd developers "butthurt" are also ridiculous:

For his part, Sievers appeared unmoved by Torvalds' outburst.

Yup, 'cos Jesus was real big on killing people and not notably hard on rich people or capitalists.

Great site. News for Nerds indeed.

Ah, by "current" you mean "historical". :-)

Luckily for us software isn't carved in stone.

But that's what systemd is about. You can criticise the way they do it, but they are at least trying to fix these problems, rather than denying they exist or throwing up their hands and saying "you can't get there from here".

(By the way, in what way is sd_notify "outside the scope of current start-up management"? systemd is "current start-up management" for lots of us).
