Debian To Replace SysVinit, Switch To Systemd Or Upstart 362
An anonymous reader writes "Debian has been one of the last holdouts using SysVinit over a modern init system, but now after much discussion amongst Debian developers, they are deciding whether to support systemd or Upstart as their default init system. The Debian technical committee has been asked to vote on which init system to use, which could swing in favor of using Upstart due to the Canonical bias present on the committee."

I'm with this too. Fuck Canonical. They have become a real pain in the ass, and worst of all, they're a pack of fucking retarded assholes. I can't say it enough. Fuck Canonical. Fuck Canonical. Fuck Canonical.
Debian is one of the best distros out there, let's not allow the fuckwaddery that is Canonical and their arrogance and intense stupidity ruin it. The current init system works just fine.
Oh, and in case you didn't get it. Fuck Canonical. Fuck Canonical. Fuck Canonical.

I really wish you'd get off the fence and pick a position on the issue.

So mostly okay for some stuff, and four stars out of five for anything else? Pretty good, pretty good.

You own your own dick too, but there is no point in complaining you can't get it up once you cut it off.

No Solaris SMF was a good idea, systemd is what you get when someone looks at that idea and says "you know what, I can fuck that up."

To shutdown: yank the power cable.
To reboot: yank the power cable, then plug it back in again. Then depress power button if necessary.
Accompany either process by shouting the magic words "fuck it, it'll probably be fine".
