Yeah, we need power, which is why nuclear is stupid. We could have more sooner with renewables.

Brains are not equal. A parrot does a lot with a tiny brain for example. I think the rest of the argument is more compelling

And yet precisely none of the data indicates it as such. Not trends, not current values.

No, here on Slashdot.
sysvinit is literally why virtually every Linux distribution has had rescue disks since the beginning. Even Windows doesn't come with one.
IME, grub is that reason.

You should have noauto in your options. Or today, better yet, use autofs.
The entire Unix world disagees that a set of fragile shell scripts is a great way to boot an operating system. That's why Mac OS X uses LaunchD/SystemStarter, and why the majority of BSDs have switched from a tightly written non-modular shell script intended (bypassing sysvinit altogether) to OpenRC
You mean where they're still using scripts?
Your anecdotal evidence that systemd once crashed on you but you somehow never ever had an unbootable Linux system with sysvinit suggests you've never actually maintained a serious Unix-like system with any complexity.
I've been maintaining serious Unix-like systems since I was a teenager, when at home I had a Sun SLC netbooting Xkernel from a 486 running Linux so I could run Netscape on a fanless system by my bed. Now I run Devuan with root on encrypted ZFS for funsies. You don't need to tell me about boot problems. I just don't blame my problems on sysvinit because I know which components are actually responsible, and it has never failed me. It does one job and does it well. I too have had my system be problematic because I could have done better with my fstab, but that's not sysvinit's fault.

Yeah we can see how well that works when they all go fuck kids on the same island.
