Hi all,

I think this joke could be refined, but it's a pretty good start.

You know, given the fact that systemd's architecture is an April Fools
joke, it's amazing how little systemd humor exists.

How many Lennart Poetterings does it take to change a light bulb?

Just one. He simply runs

# systemctl restart lights.service

And then a bunch of maintenance workers run out and replace all the
light bulbs at once.

However, every now and then the maintenance workers walk into each
other, drop the lightbulbs, and none of the lightbulbs get replaced.

(Concurrency and parallelism are hard, but when you get them right, you
can do some interesting things. If you don't get them right, you get
some interesting race conditions.)
