Same with me. And yet, as unknowledgeable as I am, the last time I was
conscious of being hacked was in the 1990's, when using MS Windows.

I consider poettering more of a useless idiot. He's a very skilled
maker of super-complexified software Rube Goldberg machines. Redhat and
microsloth saw great value in the complexification of Linux, so they

marketing campaign with the distros to get them to accept systemd.
