This is tangential, but the author's audiobook "Savaged by Systemd" sounds hilariously bizarre:

> The classic work of Linux satirical erotica, complete and unabridged, now a Tilted Windmill Press exclusive!

> ... The latest trend Terry refuses? One adopted almost everywhere? Systemd, the replacement init.

> So Systemd comes for Terry.

> Wearing skin-tight leather pants.




Sounds like something Chuck Tingle would write.


Pounded in the root by a Systemd


SIGKILL:ed in the stdin by systemd: A proc erotica


Is it a love story? Is it a horror story? We will never know!


I mean, if you really want to know... here's an Amazon review: https://www.amazon.com/gp/customer-reviews/R2W2GI082RE884/re...

Both the review and the sample of the book available through the book's marketplace listing leave me unable to describe either of them with any single word other than "inspired".


As the author, I cannot recommend reading this tale. I must say, however, that the reviews are an art form in and of themselves and will reward ten minutes of your time.

That review you cited was clearly written by someone who felt personally attacked. I have theories.


I defied your warnings and read your tale. I got some good laughs out of it. Well done!


Poettering got drunk and read it?

And that's enough HN for today.
