two years. that's how long one of these bugs has been in systemd.
*via a remote network*. what the hell is an init system doing being
accessible *via DNS queries*?
for anyone who still believes that systemd is okay to use and deploy,
and that there exist "great advantages that outweigh the risks", are
you *finally* getting the message now?
dozens of distros, millions of people, all affected by the
irresponsible act of switching "en-masse" to a single over-reaching
init system which is developed in a fashion that is not being properly
managed or controlled. i do not understand why people do not
understand this.
