... take some of its dominance of the desktop world
Outside of the enterprise world, is Microsoft really dominant on the desktop anymore?
.
Anecdotally, it looks like Microsoft is losing its dominance in the consumer desktop world to Apple, i.e., Microsoft no longer enjoys the 90+% marketshare on the consumer desktops that it once had.

Now, if I could also stop those &*()&(^%^ political calls.....

What is so difficult about the FCC understanding that I do not want calls on my mobile from robocallers and/or telemarketers.

Your error occurred in the very first words of your post, "According to wikipedia..."
...what makes you think the maintainers of BSD aren't going to run into the same walls that the systemd approach circumvents?...
If they do (and that's a big if, as I'm not convinced they will), then I would expect the BSD maintainers to arrive at a better solution.
...Firefox is still my favorite browser..
You're in a dwindling minority.

It looks like Firefox started 2014 with a 26.9% market share, and ended 2014 with a 23.6% market share.
Yup, those Mozilla people must be doing something right.

...most of the installers are so confusing that there's no way a non-geek could figure out how to avoid the awful.
Working as designed. The purpose of the installers is to get the secondary software installed, so why make it easy not to meet that goal?
not really a bug just a behavior
OK, if it's working as designed, then let's call it a design bug instead of a coding bug.
.
On my internal network, I used ntp as the ntp server for my house. I put "listen interface" in the ntp.conf file, and instructed it to listen only on the 10.1.1.1 interface. yet netstat showed that ntp was still listening on *:123. It's sloppy design and sloppy coding.
When I see things like that right in front of me, I am left to wonder about the quality of the code that I cannot see.
.
I have ten servers for which the 100 millisecond accuracy of OpenNTPD is perfectly fine. I have one server where I may need more accuracy than that.
So I'd rather run the risk of having only one server with the bloated mess of ntp, and having a valid alternative for my other ten servers.
...Sorry, but this is just blatant "Look at us, we run an NTP project that's secure" when actually it does less than 10% of what ntpd does.
... Sorry, but your comment is just a blatant, "Look at us, the ntp project provides more accuracy, so just ignore everything else that is wrong with it."
To my eyes, it looks like the ntp project is the arrogance of the openssl project all over again.
...Until there's a compelling reason to move, don't....
There have been two compelling reasons to move recently.

I just the USPS label printer a lot, and I've not had any problems..

Maybe, just maybe, the problem does not reside with the website.
fwiw, I read the first few paragraphs and then decided "what a waste of time this story is."
Then I look at who wrote it. Well, there's part of my life I'll never get back......

Unfortunately, you present not a single shred of evidence, nor do you provide any evidence to counter what the FBI has said.

Devil's advocate or not, without any evidence the credibility of what you assert is zero.
Only God can make random selections.
