Jeff Fortin T. (風の庭園のNekohayo)I was hoping to see that sort of functionality directly in <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/GNOMESoftware" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#GNOMESoftware</a> when applying system updates that don't touch the kernel, but it seems some piece of the puzzle is missing here (maybe a hybrid of <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/systemd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#systemd</a>'s "soft-reboot" and <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/DNF" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#DNF</a>'s "system-upgrade"): <a href="https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-software/-/issues/2427" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-software/-/issues/2427</a>

Jeff Fortin T. (風の庭園のNekohayo)The "systemctl soft-reboot" <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/systemd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#systemd</a> command is so cool :blobaww: <a href="https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/latest/systemd-soft-reboot.service.html" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/latest/systemd-soft-reboot.service.html</a>Finally a clean way to rapidly re-start everything other than the <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Linux</a> kernel… for me, it is extremely useful to be able to do that after applying desktop & graphics stack updates, and to be able to log back in within 10 seconds.Throwing the idea out here: it would be very nice if someone figured out a way to write a <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/GNOMEShell" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#GNOMEShell</a> extension to provide "Soft reboot" as an alternative to cold reboot!

HoldMyType<a href="https://mastodon.social/@pid_eins" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@pid_eins</a> til Thanks, also Once you create a container, <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/Podman" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Podman</a> can automatically generate a <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/systemd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#systemd</a> service file to start and stop that container. Starting the service creates (or replaces) the container, and stopping the service removes the container. So that already takes care of my "manage each original flag" problem.But the cherry on top if that if you tag your containers with io.containers.autoupdate, then once a day on a timer or on-demand when you podman auto-update, it will check for a new image and if there is one it will recreate the container for you with the new image. <a href="https://blog.yaakov.online/replacing-kubernetes-with-systemd/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://blog.yaakov.online/replacing-kubernetes-with-systemd/</a>

Ben S.Holy hell, the <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/systemd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#systemd</a> documentation is a giant rat's nest.Someone needs to come up with a user-friendly program for creating .service files.I can't handle having to mentally overlay several man pages in order to get the full picture.Also, I hate hate hate that it uses a conversational style for describing things that should be bulleted lists, forcing me to parse several words into each paragraph to find the actual option name being described.What a goddamned mess.

Alexander DyasI don't mean to kick off a whole systemd discussion, but there's something very wrong with a system that has to tell you, on the command line, where to look for logs when things don't work as expected.Job for systemctl status whatever.service" and "journalctl -xeuted with error code.

liannaI've been a silly hobby contrarian for the longest time. It always gives me an inexplicable, warm feeling to do things the unpopular way, to tread untrodden paths.I play the least popular character type or class in video <a href="https://micro.webgarden.click/tags/games" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#games</a> like <a href="https://micro.webgarden.click/tags/ffxiv" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#FFXIV</a> or <a href="https://micro.webgarden.click/tags/battlefield" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Battlefield</a>. No metagaming and no guides - even for strategy or tycoon games. When I learn what the best starter setup is, I use another. I used subpar <a href="https://micro.webgarden.click/tags/chess" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#chess</a> openings even while learning.If possible, I used alternative mod frameworks like <a href="https://micro.webgarden.click/tags/fabric" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Fabric</a> or <a href="https://micro.webgarden.click/tags/quilt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Quilt</a> for <a href="https://micro.webgarden.click/tags/minecraft" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Minecraft</a>.

I always wanted to use super obscure <a href="https://micro.webgarden.click/tags/linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Linux</a> distributions and desktop environments.But there's one exception.After decades of using and enjoying obscure window managers and desktops, I am a full-on <a href="https://micro.webgarden.click/tags/kde" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#KDE</a> fan.And with that context, that's a big compliment. I love KDE. It does everything I want from a desktop. It's the most popular, but I don't care. It's perfect to me.

John Goerzen<a href="https://freeradical.zone/@LeftCoast" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@LeftCoast</a> Yep, 70MB RAM and it is using about 1GB on the 16GB MicroSD card that holds the OS. I could get that storage space down also if I had any need to, but I haven't bothered.The <a href="https://floss.social/tags/systemd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#systemd</a> opponents can note that systemd is using approximately half the total memory in use on the system.The <a href="https://floss.social/tags/systemd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#systemd</a> fans can note that systemd is using only 35MB.So there you have it, everybody wins 🙂 Either way, most of the RAM is used for cache!
