"A very public and sometimes acrimonious dispute in the Debian ecosystem about upstart versus systemd has been settled in favour of systemd. Some go as far as to brand it a new era after the Linux civil war [Beware popups].

We also had an asksoylentnews question on what the fuzz was all about. But what can upstart contribute to systemd now the war is over, or will it simply be a technology that we remember fondly, but do not see any more in a few years time?"

    take a look at Windows with its service manager. That's basically what they're emulating, only much better of course.

    Damning with faint praise.

    Ever notice the arrogance and aggression that meets the many valid technical criticisms? Given the attitude of the developers, the manual / FAQ for systemd may as well read "because fuck you - that's why". Not any better than Microsoft afterall then!
