One of my earliest experiences with systemd's binary log files was on an embedded system I had ~~chrooted~~ systemd-nspawned into, and every time I tried to get the log output it would segfault (some issue with qemu-static probably). Very frustrating experience.
Really feels like "Embrace, extend, extinguish" but the thing they're extinguishing is unix-as-a-programming-environemnt.
Heh, well making your product worse for more revenue seems pretty warped, and increases the risk of lost market share. Even more warped is having 2 of your engineers join the Debian technical committee and use the bylaws to force a vote before anyone figures out exactly what SystemD is.
Were they coerced to vote for it? Why did they vote for it if they didn't know what it is? Honestly it's hilarious how systemd haters see conspiracies everywhere.
That's an ultra dumb take. It is a fking trivial binary format with an open spec, which is not particularly complicated. Is linux also EEE? Because those ELF files are quite a bit more difficult to decypher...
