Biased source.

Selected post titles:

- D-Bus, ConsoleKit, PolicyKit: turds upon turds upon turds

- The Systemd (sic) debacle

- D-Bus is completely unnecesary

Choice quote:

"yes, they want me to call it “systemd”, but I’m averse, for some reason, to proper nouns beginning with lower-case letters; something to do with having had a moderately good education, I guess"

This is reddit-level drivel. Please refrain from posting it.

An LWN article on bus1 will come out, eventually; post that instead.

It's strange to me how often that particular quote, which was intended to be more humorous than anything (ok - I understand if most people don't think it's funny; that doesn't mean it wasn't meant to be) - is used as some kind of evidence that my ideas are wrong on a technical level, while never providing any actual technical analyses.

As for being biased; well, I've criticised SystemD and D-Bus and a whole slew of other pieces of software, and indeed that's more-or-less what the blog was originally for, but just because I do criticise does not mean that criticism is unwarranted. Where's your technical argument?
