I think this is only perceived because it is of recent focus and more openness about feelings, as US population suicide rates are within a small margin from 1950s to present.[1] I suspect close to the same rate of depression in teens in the 1960's, 1970's, 1980's, etc.
But you know what else happened in 2012? Linux took over the datacenter. Probably just a coincidence.
Hell with Roomba. Vacuuming floors is nothing. I want a robot that cleans and sanitizes toilets and bathrooms, another that does dishes and the kitchen sink, and one for the car.
Thank you, and a worthy attempt, but as you have defined Fascism, the political movement and a noun and proper name, as opposed to the adjective fascist, as in advocation of an authoritarian regime and in opposition of and intolerant of opposing views, and in modern definitions, a synonym of "bullying," your post is somewhat of a straw man. Obviously I was not suggesting that systemd was literally Nazi software. What I was saying is that systemd, as an unnecessarily complex machine in itself as it proceeds to annex other parts of the system, is autocratic, strongly regimented and centralized, suppresses opposition, and subordinates individual interests.
> and there should be Linux distros packaged without systemd.
systemd should be an optional package on all distros. Shoving it down throats is one of the valid major criticisms. What should have happened instead is systemd was optional on Debian at setup and Debian was forked to include it by default. It is simply backwards that Debian needed to be forked for purity. Duvuan shouldn't need to exist, but it very much does.
The entire ideology of openness and freedom has been turned on its head. Instead of "what is best for everyone is good enough for me," has become with entitlement "what is best for me is good enough for everyone." Maybe you like the way you do things, but would any here really insist on forcing everyone else to use your methods and no others?
systemd, among other valid criticisms, is unmistakably fascist. For anyone but parent, don't just be thin-skinned and downvote my comment because you have allowed yourself to be insulted. Be courageous and disagree with me if you can. How is systemd not fascist?
