(Sng) Sendoff for Linux, People(Devs) want out

Sendoff for Linux - Because even Linus wants a Mac or Windows clone.
His main concern lately is that some distro he uses (doesn't roll his own)
requires a password to add printers.

He has no problem with systemd (Why should he, it is a poor reimplemtation
of OS X's launchd which is an even poorer reimplementation of Solaris SMF)

He started linux because 386 BSD was in legal dispute. He wanted a real
unix OS on cheap x86 hardware. Well now there's a proper one: Mac OSX
He might aswell use that. Perhaps he does.

Linux is on its last legs. In userspace there is constant "regression" 
between versions (things that used to work don't any more or are
intentionally ripped out, that almost appears to be sabotage. The kernel
is presided over by those who don't care anymore and will let any
garbage in so long as it is written by a RedHat employee - they will
never allow sensible things like /dev/dsp multiplexing however - audio
needs to go through atleast 4 levels of redirection! And proper security
patches (Like GRSecurity) - Never (though that remaining seperate and
divorced from the linux kernel dev culture is probably a blessing in disguise)

It's been a good 20 years, but the people that started it don't give a
damn anymore and want out.
