Pretty soon you can't disable this field in systemd.

There's literally nothing in the history of this project to suggest this is the case. Since day one systemd has had two and only two requirements. Systemd and systemd-journald, and the latter gives a configuration option to simply forward all logs to something else.

Everything else beyond this you think is "required" as part of systemd is exclusively the choice of your distribution maintainer. Direct your anger at the appropriate group.

Comment Re:drone battery size (Score 1) 42

For consumer electronics the legal requirement that batteries must be user replaceable renders this idea dead in the water in the entire EU.

No it doesn't. The only requirement is that batteries are accessible a) without barriers (in this case meaning non-reusable adhesives), b) with standard tools or where special tools are required that the manufacturer provides these tools (e.g. Apple's lobed screwdriver is allowed providing they ship the device with said screwdriver), and c) the battery available for purchase for 5 years.

Also the commission is currently reviewing if some devices need to be exempt.

There are some things where I think it's fair to never trust that person fully again. Ever.

Trust should be limited to the activity you can't be trusted. Where I live employers can request from the police an approval. But that approval is compared to the requested job position.

E.g. if a bank askes the police for this history of a convicted paedophile, they will get a reply saying there's nothing of concern in the history. Likewise if a school asks about the criminal history of someone committed of money laundering they'll also be told there's nothing of concern. On the flip side if the school asks about the paedophile or the bank asks about the money launderer they'll get a hit saying the person has a criminal past related to their job application.

US: 66% (Wall Street's numbers aren't those found in official statistics)
UK: 28.9%
Holland: 23%
Norway: 16%
China: 6%

US' conclusion: The rate is a complete mystery, we've no idea how to decrease it, let's do more of what we're currently doing differently to everyone else.

There is a slight possibility this may be flawed.

Comment Not good enough for coding (Score 1) 7

I tried using AI a few times, but the code quality was too low for my taste. In the end, it's faster for me to just write the code than to ask an AI to do it and then to fix its bad code.

However, AI is still a blessing. When I have a specific question, like about frameworks that I know only superficially, it's certainly faster to just ask an AI than to search the web. I don't always get a correct answer, but even with the time wasted trying things that are wrong, overall I still save a lot of time. AI basically allowed me to never go to web sites like Stack Overflow again (which is certainly good for my mental health).

Comment Who in the world would use this? (Score 1) 101

A fork that removes a completely optional feature that you can toggle off, is not a fork, it's just a waste of space on github repository that no one will use.

Why would anyone ever install this instead of just not using the field when using systemd? For any distribution or software which doesn't require this it is completely ignorable and not even mandatory to use in systemd. For any distribution of software which does require this it would be incompatible.

This software serves no purpose.
