I feel sorry for your inability to keep your knee from jerking.
We already discussed the incident in larger scope. If you missed it, nobody cares.

Yes. systemd had the advantage of learning from both systems, using what they did right and discarding what they did wrong
Sadly, that didn't stop them from making their own sophomoric mistakes made by neither, nor useful idiots from defending their incompetence and poor decision-making abilities.
All the old religions are wrong.
Religions are for control, and part of that is letting the people in control do whatever they want. Part of being a moral adult is not doing whatever you want, but doing the part of what you want that won't harm others. Most so-called adults ain't, they're just old people.
systemd isn't a horrible implementation, it is in fact extremely good in many areas and extremely well coded and documented, which is exactly why FreeBSD will clone that instead of SMF/Launchd or try to invent a new solution.
Regardless of what tack they do take, FreeBSD won't clone SMF or launchd because both SMF and launchd are festering pieces of shit hated by everyone familiar with them.
You obviously aren't aware of inetd or xinetd, although you probably have them running, started by your precious sysvinit.
First, most modern Linux systems come without an inetd or xinetd, because they have no services which aren't supplied by long-running daemons. Second, inetd won't listen on things it doesn't need to listen on, let alone xinetd.
"All muslim's are terrorists" ranting. That is not productive or accurate.
If you said "Hey, Islam needs to go through it's own Reformation", then the ones you deride as "SJW's" would agree with you.
There is a middle ground. That middle ground is where you claim that the majority of muslims give at least tacit approval to islamic terrorism by not opposing it. If they did oppose it, they would have had a reformation by now.
The ones that focus on Islam instead of the real reasons (extreme misogynistic traditions in many cultures)
Islam is an extremely misogynistic tradition. That is the real reason they can't progress their cultures. You can see this at work in every Islamic state. Their culture progresses more slowly, because they've got rules to make that happen. No different from the Amish, except there's enough Muslims to be a problem, and the Amish are grossly outnumbered.
Jews? It's really ludicrous to even bring up the Jews. Jews don't exist. Numerically, that is
That's a ridiculous thing to say. Sure, they very much don't exist in some places, but they are extremely unevenly distributed due to some deliberate and deft political decisions on the part of the UK. They created the nation of Israel and one of the most complicated regions in the world got even more complicated — to the benefit of everyone but the residents of the region where the Jews were installed. And people are still lauding them for their benevolence, which is the most hilarious part.
Tell you what though, go hang out with the Palestinians and share with them your idea that Jews don't exist. You'd better move quickly though, if you want to find any. Those nonexistent Jews are working on making that impossible.
This is not to single out the Jews for bad treatment, just to point out that they are sufficiently numerous to commit atrocities. You know, kind of like Moses' slaughter of all the first-born sons... atrocities are kind of what they do, according to their own alleged history.
For all its faults, the Catholic church had a good idea, that just letting people read the Bible themselves and interpret it their own way would lead to all kinds of bad things, so they tried to keep people from doing that
Wait, you don't really believe that shit, do you? You're crazier than the catholics if you do. Keeping people from information is always done to handicap them. True leaders create more leaders. The Catholics only want more followers.
Really intelligent people - those who are smart over the whole range, not just the logic puzzle part, are normally a delight to talk with.
I haven't met anyone smart over the whole range, yet, especially not on slashdot. Ain't nobody perfect. Slashdot is more than usually full of precious snowflakes, for example
In many ways Anita Sarkeesian is asking for what she's getting. The rape/death threats are uncalled for,
Which is it? Make up your fucking mind.
The numbers Solar City gave me showed a net savings of $30 a month. That's it - 30 bucks a month. And that is assuming you buy into their calculations - which I don't.
You really don't think energy costs will go up over time? Ironically, the only way they wouldn't is if we committed to more renewables.
But the real "so what" is that they are OCRing the mail
Lot's of people still actually hand-write addresses. It needs to get OCRed in order to be sorted.
You have to finish the sentence before you can understand it. I'd bet you just interrupt in the middle of sentences all the time, and thus fail to understand what people are telling you by preventing them from actually finishing a complete thought.
If you go back and read the complete sentence, which expresses a complete thought, then it makes perfect sense.
You use a lot of big words, I don't think you know what any of them mean.
You've proven full well that I do.
What I argue is that there's structural differences that makes this a better idea to to centrally than at home,
But you're wrong.
If it's cost effective for you to store the power in a battery and use it in the daytime it's going to be more cost effective for them to store the power in a battery and sell it to you in the daytime.
Cost-effective for who, and on what basis?
The very reason they sell it cheap at night is that there's no cost effective way to store the excess power for later,
It's not cost-effective for them, because they don't have a secondary use for the battery.
You're on the wrong end of the Dunning-Kruger effect here, buddy.
You still have failed to support your argument in the slightest. We're waiting, though we're not holding our breath, because we want to live.
The problem with that plan is that so many aspects of the way the system is designed give people with money and/or time an advantage that you'd basically have to scrap it.
This is a problem?
What this country needs is a good five dollar plasma weapon.
