  • Did you even read my comment? This is precisely the point. If something illegal happened through her bank account, that would be the only viable reason to block it. If not, there is no justification to block it.

    The account blocking has taken a form recently that I condemn, I don’t think this should be used in the political discourse.

    From the information I could gather about the case, I can’t say what happened through her account. There are some vague statements from the Bundespressekonferenz that make it seem like the government/EU takes that position. The family and lawyer claim the opposite.

    In this case, I would tend to side with the family until we know more. My point was just that there is quite a stretch between blocking a bank account and starving children.











  • Consider yourself lucky if you haven’t been there in the times before systemd. It streamlined a lot of things under the hood that were stupidly varied among distros, like where certain configurations were placed. Really, nobody needed that and it broke a lot. Systems also introduced some sanity through service dependency awareness, e.g., which service needs to be running before the next can be started. You might find that obvious, but Linux was still stuck in the 80s on that level and essentially a guessing game.

    That said, if you want to try something else, the most reasonable but quite involved alternative is probably guix with shepherd.
