    Under the hood there is this thing in there called “systemd” that does a pretty good job making Linux work, and has made some people happy and some other people unhappy.

    Before systemd there was something called “init” or maybe “system v” that wasn’t as good at systemd, especially not at restarting things if there was a problem, but it was real fast and less complicated.

    This is not part of the Linux kernel though, i have no idea how that works.

    Can i be dewey, but with the glasses?
