They aren't trying to require ID. They are trying to require either a passport or birth certificate. A lot of people don't have a passport, and a large percentage of the population does not have a birth certificate readily available. It takes money and time to get a replacement copy, and even if everyone requests one in time local agencies will be flooded such that the delay will cause them to be unable to vote. It is already well known that the way things have been done for many decades works just fine, and all claims of election fraud have been thoroughly debunked. Also, a poll tax is illegal, and it cost money to get any of the three (ID, Passport, Birth Certificate.) It's ironic that you are complaining about election fraud while supporting installing the means for Trump to commit it.

Back then companies were able to focus on strategy and long term plans. Now companies can only focus on the bottom line of the current quarter. Anything that helps that number is more important than any negative downstream side-effects such thinking causes. The combination of MBAs, spreadsheets and SarbOx tool control of most companies away from the people who were interested in innovation (and customers and employees) and put all control solely on the financial performance and the people that track it.

Why would you suggest someone might have difficulty finding an example and then immediately cite three of them off the top of your head? I assure you there are plenty of other examples if you just do a modicum of research.

No fault? None at all? That seems... counter-intuitive.

I get it that the technology failed spectacularly, and that this is a serious problem for which people need to be held to account, but my car is working just fine.

Sometimes the absence of information suffices to convey the information. Other things that didn't happen include:

An Uber Eats driver was not delivering McDonald's to the house at the time

No famous or rich people lived there

Nobody was sitting on the couch

Protestors did not form outside the house to raise awareness of the dangers of space exploration.

Nobody ever said they are disabling bash. Nobody said you can't runs scripts via unit files. If you knew how init worked you would know what init.d is, how it works, and why no longer using it is removing support. They are not removing support for scripts. They are removing support for the init script mechanism, implemented by numbering your scripts and putting them in init.d. Systemd, up until v260 supported that mechanism. Stop pretending you have a clue, when you have no idea what you are talking about.

Google is your friend.Try: "systemd 360 init script changes"

"Based on recent major updates (specifically systemd 260+), support for legacy System V (SysV) init scripts in /etc/init.d has been removed, making native unit files mandatory. Users must replace old shell scripts with unit files, which use declarative [Unit], [Service], and [Install] sections to handle service management, dependencies, and parallel execution."

So yes, I should have wrote 260 rater than 60. I didn't say nobody could "find a way", I said they are removing support.

You are clearly "throw the baby out with the bathwater" kind of guy. Systemd still has huge advantages over init scripts, and you don't have to build the entire feature set in. This is like you finding about a portage variable getting added to Gentoo and saying "See, I knew Gentoo sucks!"
