i don't like systemd. it's confusing to me and unnecessarily complex. especially trying to figure out why something is broken. which is frequent. supposedly it's good for sysadmins running 100s of VMs in a datacenter or something. or maybe i'm not understanding the benefits.

systemd-resolved uses google as a fallback, assuing you've manually enabled it and it can't find an alternative.

It's insecure by design, has had many backdoors and is under constant revision so more are being inserted all the time.

It's not reliable, is more bloated than all of Linux + the GNU userland + GCC + Emacs combined circa a few years ago.

The developer is an actual East German communist who works for a company in bed with multiple alphabet agencies who are working to destroy the privacy of every person on earth.

If you use systemd, you're a retard. The fact that they have to shill against it all the time is bad enough, but the shills responses indicate that they don't have anything positive to say about systemd themselves. They constantly mischaracterize the valid criticisms of systemd and them huffily say "WELL BUILD YOUR OWN INIT THEN" as if there aren't already many different, mature, stable, and much smaller competitors.

All in all, it's obvious to even the most casual observer that this software has no technical merits.

New bugs like this pop up all the time and Lennart is busy creating even more ridiculous back doors.

You asked for people to point out the back door in the code, and they did.

The point is, new bugs are sold to the Russian mafia, they aren't disclosed to Lennart so he can file them as 'not a bug.' Maybe the NSA hast to pay more than the Russians for the backdoors?

It's just no good on small hardware, either - it absolutely rapes devices like CHIP and the RPi. Embedded Linux is going to suffer badly because of these technologies, and they're moving more and more useless shit into the kernel every day.

Anyway, eventually something better will come along a replace it, the warts are already showing and it's not as if the team behind systemd is loved even by those who swear by it.

It's not. The only problems it "solves" (simpler service definitions, service management, and parallel service startup) had already been solved by things like OpenRC and runit, and had even been hacked into sysvinit in some cases. The only reason you might find youself needing it now is if some software has a hard dependency on it for no apparent reason (like gnome).
>>
>>62351830
Depends on what you want. Gentoo and Slackware are both well established distros while void is relatively new. Gentoo offers tons of configurability through USE flags and other portage configs so if you want your system to be exactly a certain way it might be for you. Void is very minimal but it has an ncurses installer which makes installing easier and it has a fast binary package manager. Slackware is very old school in many ways and you may have to resolve dependencies yourself. Slackware does have an installer though unlike gentoo. Gentoo and void are both community run, although gentoo has a properly defined governance structure while void is just a group of people. Slackware is run by one guy who has final say. It's up to you to take these factors into account and choose what you want.

For how many lines of code it has, it really doesn't make anything easier from the user perspective. Its bloated as shit and difficult to figure out how to do simple things with, like figure out why a service failed, or see which services are installed or running.

At least systemd can reliably kill processes thanks to cgroups.
>>
>>62359514
What is this 2011 or something? Using cgroups isn't limited to systemd.

>>62359324
I dont call "your log is corrupt,rotating log
Oh you wanted your log file? well since its binary its corrupt and we dont take any tries to uncorrupt it so all that information you need is no longer avalible" reliable either
>>
>>62358751
>>Do you just make this shit up as you go Lennart?
I'm pretty sure he does. Obviously 'user "0day" gives you root' was not behavior he knowingly implemented. He only justifies it AFTER he learns about it. Every time he gets hit by a bug like this, he dreams up an excuse on the spot.

It's disgusting. We need to bring back the Roman approach to engineering. The engineer of a bridge must stand beneath the bridge as the wood frame is removed. If the bridge collapses, the engineer gets squashed. Lennart needs to be held accountable for his crimes.

>binary logs
I will never understand why they thought this was a good idea.
>>
>>62359570
Putting su root into an sysvinit script also gives you root, what's your point?

If your attacker has access to root files you're already compromised.

Systemd shills think this is acceptable behavior.

There is nothing invalid about usernames starting with a number. You can add one right now.
>>
>>62359271
It's perfectly reliable, at least you can tell if it worked or not, and fix it if it didn't.

Also can't you just make a script to do that?
>>
if you use it you're contributing to the death of unix and should be banned from /g/
>>
if you arent using systemd you most likely pull in a dependency like udev/libsystemd0/pulseaudio
>>
>>62359767
Right, I use eudev and pulseaudio. I know a lot of people absolutely hate pulseaudio, but honestly nothing works better for me.

>>62359715
>it's perfectly reasonable for our init system to FAIL UNSAFE.

I'm serious when I say engineers like you and Lennart should have to put your lives on the line.

Works on some machines. Regardless, even if you do treat those kinds of usernames as invalid, it's pants-on-head retarded to give them root instead of just not executing the service and outputting an error.
>>
>>62359740
>Also can't you just make a script to do that?

Yes. That script combined with all of the hundreds of other scripts needed to make sysvinit robust is called systemd.
>>
>>62360229
Why do systemd shills act like openrc and runit don't exist?
>>
>>62360222
systemd outputs a warning about invalid config syntax.

Again, feel free to rage that systemd decides to support backward compatibility by defaulting to a safe value.

Do u still use pacman? It's impossible to use arch repos without systemd right?

You're drunk lennart.

>>62360262
Safe as in the service will work, stupid. Most services won't work if you default them to run as bob.

>>62352868
Just because someone is irrational in one aspect of their life does not mean they will be irrational in all aspects of their life.

>Most services won't work if you default them to run as bob.
No fucking shit. They shouldn't work. This is no different. Do you just hate security?
>>
It works perfectly fine.
Most people complaining don't actually have any horse in the race, and the rest are butthurt sysadmins who have to spend another 10 minutes re-writting their scripts so they can go back to being lazy.

As far as how well it works- I had much bigger issues with Upstart, and any other init systems I've used. units not starting, not properly logging, etc etc.

I've quite literally never had an issue with systemd. Does it have some bloat? Sure I'm sure it does, but so does the Linux kernel, and I honestly don't care enough to compile it without the shit I don't need.

Of course, the blood thirsty anit-systemd army will just label me a shill, but all I say is to form your own opinion, OP.
>>
>>62360302
I suppose you'll be glad to learn that if you typo the user setting in a openrc script (or sysvinit script) the service will also run as root.
>>
>>62360400
I don't know what you're talking about. /etc/init.d is owned by root and all scripts there will execute as root. If you want a daemon to run without root, don't handle them with openrc.

systemd shills are dishonest

that they can't argue honestly is quite damning for systemd

>>62352662
systemd is a competent user's nightmare. I don't know anyone who is experienced with UNIX that likes it.
