Yeah sure there’s different brands and differences in texture or flavor a bit, but they’re basically all doing the same stuff - Packaging<br>Cherry - the GUI. It’s only there for looks, you could absolutely eat the ice cream without it, but most diners expect it on their sundae</p><p>Distros - An ice cream sundae.

jbz<p>Take that systemd (?)</p><p>「 The biggest change in SysVinit 3.14 is overcoming the 127 character per line limit of inittab files that has been there for roughly the past three decades. With SysVinit moving forward, inittab lines can be up to 253 characters long... Those with really long inittab lines are really best off punting off that logic to a shell script that can then be called from the inittab 」</p><p><a href="https://www.phoronix.com/news/SysVinit-3.14-Released" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">phoronix.com/news/SysVinit-3.1</span><span class="invisible">4-Released</span></a></p><p><a href="https://indieweb.social/tags/sysvinit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>sysvinit</span></a> <a href="https://indieweb.social/tags/opensource" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>opensource</span></a></p>
