California AB 1043 signed. Mandatory os-level, device-level, app store, and even developer-required age verification for all computing devices.
Edit: altered title from “ID check” to “Age Verification check”
Just use the normal procedure for switching to sysvinit (or openrc) + elogind. Easy to perform if you still have your install media.
On Debian?? That’s news to me.
It’s actually well-documented in their wiki (yeah, I know, it’s 2025 people don’t read that because it’s not Discord and that shit). Tho i recommend adding Antix’s
nosystemdrepo if you do that on systems that are not Sid, because the packaging of some important high-level tools is stupidly tied to systemd for some weird reason (NetworkManager being a good example) and the upstreams refuse to unfuck it (which is as simple as restoring the init script those upstreams already used to have).Intentional hard-linking.
I went gentoo once debian forced systemd on its users, i wasn’t aware they sorta backtracked, nice to know.
Slackware and Devuan fill my other needs so i have no plans to go back to Debian.
Debian never actually forced the use of systemd, they just didn’t make it obvious you could switch at install time fairly easily, or later with a bit more work. I’m running multiple sysvinit debian systems, ans they’re ticking along quite happily.
