It seems you took a picture of FreeBSD users, which indeed often run Macs. But FreeBSD runs on Macs too...
systemd shim is useful to simplify porting software that idiots thought it was useful to make systemd dependent. The most popular of this software is something I stopped using years ago because the devs were taking bad decisions, so that's not new.

kqemu. But that's about the only one I can think of. And it's old and deprecated nowadays.

So you expect the heaviest things, those which take the most space on the road, those which can do the most damage if any error occurs to be replaced first?

They were indeed designed for the task. The idea of that octogonal shape in almost every part of the world is for people to be able to recognize that sign without any confusion. It also allows drivers facing the back of the sign to identify that drivers from other lanes have a stop sign. It is also identifiable by night (because original signs were not reflective and cars lights were not particularly effective).

I would suggest you give the project a name first, given from your post it doesn't seem to have one. Then publish on well known site that this project is searching for devs.

Yes, there is something different. Google never told that what you called their "JRE" is a replacement for the oracle one, or should even be considered like this. It's there for a completely different purpose.
While MS claimed that their JRE was a replacement for Oracle one and did break compatibility all the way.

That's nice, efficient, ecologic, fast, and easy to park :D

According to Linus, Masturbating Monkeys is reserved for OpenBSD developers

People really don't care what OS is on their computer, as long as it pre-installed and works the way they know. It could be QNX or plan9 or anything else, as long as they are able to to the things they know how to do.

No, they do not WANT their computer with windows. They have been forced into windows for ages, so now they are accustomed and see no reason why it wouldn't be that way (and most don't even know alternatives exist anyway).
It's about the same as drugs, really. At first you get some nasty effect, then you get accustomed to it , find that normal and want more of it....

Of course, because systemd will just redefine everything. Before systemd, d was for daemon, with systemd, d now means utility. Isn't life that much better with systemd?

systemd: a poorly designed complex solution to problem which doesn't exist...

I would say, there are probably loadbalancers/web redirectors, which redirect you with to one server which you will contact during that whole session. So your session will be kept on the same server and they don't need to use anycast or sync. Just a guess though...

Maybe BSD folks don't think how it would work on linux, but at least they write portable software which has very high chances to run on linux. Unlike systemd folks which write code which they _know_ will _not_ run outside linux.

The thing is, what we called a linux distro, is not the same anymore. Linus wanted to make some kind of cheap (by price) UNIX.

With systemd, 2 fundamental pricniples of UNIX are broken:
(i) Make each program do one thing well. To do a new job, build afresh rather than complicate old programs by adding new features.

(ii) Expect the output of every program to become the input to another, as yet unknown, program. Don't clutter output with extraneous information. Avoid stringently columnar or binary input formats. Don't insist on interactive input.

So, probably distros shipping systemd should not be called linux distros anymore. It was already a mistake to call "Linux" distos. With systemd, linux distros are as close to unix as android does...

Will registryd be part of systemd soon? I can't wait having some centralized binary configuration only readable by systemd utilities.
