Assuming you like the features systemd provides, wouldn't the community just keeping a non-verified fork of systemd be easier than swapping it out entirely?

Man now I've got to figure out what all is involved with changing out systemd

They're putting in the initial work of age verification beginning with an age field.

So we just need an app where you pick a min and max age and it just randomizes between them every time it’s requested.

Install Guix System. It uses GNU Shepherd as its init system. 😃

Where would one go about learning how to do that? I'm running Bazzite.

System Crafters has a playlist showing the GNU Guix things, the distro too.

Awesome, I'll check it out. Thank you!

Have you read more than the headline? It's just an entry in a local system file. There is no enforcing and actually ties in nicely with something like parental controls. Which is, as luck would have it, responsible parents want.

Ah but then people couldn't get mad at it and rage on Lemmy.

[–] TootSweet@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

Without knowing what distro you're on, it probably involves switching distros.

I don't understand. Why do we even care about some local law?

Systemd? More like systemdeez.

I hate how alarmist Linux users are, systemd will be doing no "verification", this is just a field in the userdb.
