  1. Err, it's actually GNU slash sysvinit.

  2. That interesting link you just shared? Let me totally ignore the content and posture about how I don't have Javascript enabled by default.

  3. I'm repeatedly laughing louder and louder to myself in the office so someone is eventually forced to engage me in tedious conversation.

  4. Where does Fedora, the source of systemd, get most of its revenue? U.S. Government agencies referred to by their 3 letter acronyms...

  5. Reproducible builds? Now all they have to do is figure out how to build debian without systemd in and I might consider using it again

  6. You can already build Dropbox yourself quite trivially by getting an FTP account, mounting it with curlftpfs, and then using SVN or CVS.

  7. My role in discussions on XML is to repeatedly and baldly state "but it just reinvents s-expressions!", even though I've never used Lisp.

  8. Just asked on IRC for info only available on a Flash website (that I don't even need) so I can point out I don't have the plugin installed.

  9. I don't know what the problems with udev really are, I just know it's got lots of them.

  10. Just ranted to my cornered and clearly uninterested colleagues about the oxymoronic "Graphical expert install" in the Debian installer.

  11. Focus follows mouse is the only right and smart way to use a multi-windowed interface.

  12. Re. lack of posts — it's more time-consuming than you think to continually repeat my experiences with Network Manager 0.2 on debian-devel!

  13. tbh minor performance issues interest me a hell of a lot more than package signing.

  14. AFAICT dbus is just a replacement for a directory tree with unix sockets under /tmp. Either is equally functional.

  15. I hate new top-level directories. We are stomping on decades of Unix convention.

  16. Sigh, Lennart Poettering has transformed easy hackable start-up shell scripts into buggy and unmaintainable C code. (systemd)

  17. gtkmozembed - another victim of the freedesktop.org fascists. Will need to compile my own galeon from now on.

  18. Just tried GNOME 3 for 30 seconds. Prefer the old version. Will say bad things about GNOME 3 whenever it is mentioned for the next 5 years.

  19. Oh, I don't actually contribute to any projects - never enough time free after talking about myself on IRC.

  20. Was hosting all of my email including SMTP on my home ADSL connection but my ISP won't let me do that anymore.
