No, newsworthy is how to judge a post.

YouTube is just as hit or miss, with most of the videos about retraining people to use it, because it was just dumped in their laps like a dead cat. The point isn't that it takes some digging around to produce these reports, it is that the most popular search engine produces them immediately at a casual glance.

Gentoo supports builds with systemd as an option, user's discretion. You might have been thinking of Funtoo, see www.funtoo.org/Funtoo_Linux_FAQ

But who cares which distribution found the bug? The last turd dropped on us was found out on Ubuntu, see https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/6237.

And the developer's response to that was just barking. He's not designing this for the systems that are in the real world, he's designing it for the system he wishes it would be. He's delusional.

Is ���newsworthy��� how you judge the value of a product?


What is interesting is that Googling for systemd
brings up bad news and has done all year. I've never heard of a story
where someone reported that switching to systemd made life better.

I don���t know where you get your news, but try some of these:
<https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=systemd>.

your favourite ���news��� source.)


You can blame GNU for the behavior of their library, except systemd
*chose* to use it, and did so incorrectly.

And they are in the process of fixing it. Interesting that no major
distro has tried to put this new feature of systemd into
production--except Gentoo. And I thought they were not in favour of
systemd--have they changed their minds? Wonder why...

By the way, do you actually have any experience with systemd? Or do you
just go by what you hear?
