Nah even statistics is perfectly logical and right, but not because truth is absolute (there may be such a thing, but we definitely don’t have access to it in that case. [At this time?]), but rather because math defined there to be a way in which all you derive from it is ‘absolutely’ true. It just might be ‘absolutely’ true in a system that isn’t ours, or isn’t useful for answering anything we want to ask…
This might be a bad place (i.e. post, the community is correct), but looking at the void has got me interested so I wanted to ask: What are the main advantages of using runit compared to systemd? Like I don’t want to know all the differences (of which there are apparently many since people complain about systemd being too “bloated”/spread out over different systems?)
Also in all the “typical” discussion on systemd vs runit plenty of people talked about serious problems with runit and sometimes said something or other about process security? Is that substantiated in any way (as in “yeah technically during the boot process runit could be vulnerable to X if executing an unsafe script while systemd can’t do that because it does Y instead” or is it more like “yeah no, people just claim X when it’s not really possible or systemd also has the same problem, they just don’t talk about it”?)
(Hopefully this doesn’t turn into yet another thread about people bashing each other over this choice since that usually leads to no information being really trustworthy unless one wades through tons of long posts external to the thread…)
