It is literally happening this year.
24th is Tuesday. 1st of January is Wednesday and as a bonus Jan 6 is also a holiday in my country and that’s Monday.
So from dec 22 to jan 6 i can be home by using just 6 days off
systemd is the future, and the future has been here for over a decade and yet old Unix and BSD purists still cry about it
I have one simple thing to say to the downvoters: I am not using a minicomputer from 1970, why should I be bound by the limits set then?
me: systemd is not that bloated
systemd:
Usually such things have a simple explanation. systemd does a lot with time and date, for example scheduling tasks. It’s quite obvious that it has this capabilities, when you think about it.

Oh fuck. I’ll use this from now on. Except for if I won’t use it next week. Then I’ll forget about it because my memory is a damn sieve.
Just take the next step and make a text file you dump all these commands into and then forget about in a week. When you randomly stumble across it years from now you’ll be able to say “wow, I could have used this 10 months ago if I remembered it existed!”
I make a separate text file per command so I can search them!
Which I dont.
We can store those text files in a terminal and search for them from the command line with man command!
I usually print these out and put them in a safe deposit box at a bank so I never lose them
I feel you. It’s however gotten a lot better since I turned some of these commands into abbreviations. They’re aliases that expands in place, more or less. Fish has them natively, I personally use zsh-abbr.
How is Tuesday Christmas optimal?
I suppose for people in the office, it means everyone else has fucked off and the week is basically a wash.
I guess that makes a long weekend with Christmas Eve and then Christmas?
Is Friday Christmas just as good?
Not in Germany, where 25th and 26th are bank holidays. So having these close to the prior or following weekend makes for four days off
Seems like it would be, maybe OP has more reasons to think why Tuesday is more optimal.
Thanks! I hate this. 🖤
Well. I mean, that’s pretty cool. I don’t think I would have ever guess that was an actual function from systemd but here we are
That’s pretty clever.
God, I only have one question…
Why?
I bet it’s for timers
Did you know the next Friday the 13th is in December? ChatGPT didn’t know it. (I had to give it an extra date.now for it to figure it out)
No Christmas for 5 years?? Why are you doing this to us, systemd???
That’s actually really cool!
Too bad about its failure as an init system, though.
If by failure you mean every system under the sun using it
This just like Emacs all over again!
What, Emacs is a successful init system https://github.com/a-schaefers/systemE
No, emacs is superior
No, nobody forces you to use emacs at gunpoint.
Whoever forced you? distros wanting a stable system?
They were more stable before, even Linus acknowledges what a piece of trash systemd is.
It’s just like the same fucktard who wrote pulseaudio, which had to be fixed by implementing a decent audio system in pipewire.
Poettering is a moron who saw unix and thought “Well, what this really needs is more Windows!”
Some emacs evangelicals would like to.
