Is it systemd/Linux yet? I’m still waiting for shellctl subsystem. /s

when systemdOS with systemd-rpm-install and systemd-antivirus ?

Systemd is never beating the allegations that they're taking over everything. Now they have an installer? Why in the world did they need that? I guess someone who does a lot of automated installations donated money?

I misread IMDSD as IMDB and still thought yeah they might as well throw that in too at this point.

so - sometimes systemd's build is reliable, sometimes it causes problems. Are these good additions and do they solve real problems, or are they just for cohesion of systemd itself or introduce problems?

Really love the systemd-imdsd, this is such a useful cloud-thing to have a common way to look into! "Who am I" finally has a standard interface. The restartable kernel stuff is really cool. Starting to have userland things that systems can persist across soft-boots (user fd stores) into new kernels is a sweet capability. Excellent to have common machinery to help with that. As always some really sweet good new security / partitioning tools. Amazing superpowers that continue to build and grow.

I think they should create a kernel for systemd and then perhaps also a filesystem... maybe a GUI too?
