#Linux tip for people running Rocky Linux #VFX workstations (or Alma or RHEL I guess) who are looking for a solution to the system locking up once you're running out of memory: install systemd-oomd - the out of memory killer daemon. It's not enabled by default but I think it is on distributions that…

People don't want systemd on their PC
I would feel honoured to have systemd on my phone

Sure we’ve had systemd, but what about systeme?

Oh wow ​LLMs are just so terrible. 🤦‍♂️
I made a #systemd service watcher¹ ( :nixos: #NixOS module²³) which regularly feeds systemd status outputs into an LLM (mistral here) and sends me an email if it thinks it found real problems. Well, now I always get alarmist emails with bullshit warnings, suc…

An email:

Subject: ⚠ yann-desktop-nixos forgejo: "Urgent: Forgejo Service Overrun - Possible Resource Issue"

Diagnose
========

 PROBLEM
   Forgejo service has been running for over 4 hours without restarting or signaling an error, which is unusual. This may indicate a problem with the application or a resource consumption issue. It's recommended to investigate further and possibly restart the service.

The more I see the moves that are being taken the better I feel about leaving systemd behind.
But (growling from his cave): I told you so.
I am already pre-warning here: I'm getting fed up with QT and the 300 million options in KDE as well.
End of the service message.

If anyone is still actually playing #ARKSurvivalAscended I just got a few features added to my server management script.

It is fascinating (maybe not the word everyone would use) to watch, what once was viewed as an init replacement, systemd evolve. Terminal emulation:

The more it is evolving, the less stable it becomes. I'm using #KDE since version 1.1. And with KF6 it is for the first time that I experience the repeated total freeze of the entire desktop, because it can't handle a dock and more than one monitor. Wayland is definitely the systemd moment for desktop-linux. X-Windows was mutilated before Wayland actually worked (let alone missing network capabilit…

systemd definitely does get many things right. My current favorite is how it sets the system resolver to loopback and provides an own DNS server.
Common Linux tradition was to tell processes to use getaddrinfo, where nsswitch then provides configurable backends. That means that every process goes through loading /etc/nsswitch.conf, but worse, it reduces DNS to a terrible subset. Query SVCB records? tough luck, you're on your own.

@… @… Will do. I am probably gonna wait until I have an x86 machine to run this on because the RPi is pissing me off. I want to manage services with NixOS and systemd-nspawn, not Docker.

#systemd is taking over more and more of linux. It's spreading and I do not like it...

Anyone using #JupyterHub (services.jupyterhub.enable=true) on :nixos: #NixOS? Then you should have run into the database migration issue here:
