@lupyuen is there a rss feed for your articles somewhere? would be really nice to have :)

@lupyuen
Ok, that is cool. Thanks for explaining it to me. Does it still run in a similar frequency range to wifi, ie 2.4-5.6ghz? I'm just thinking about if using it could also reduce interference with wifi devices...

@lupyuen
It does, thanks... and the benefit of using it over the more established wifi protocol/ networks is...?

@lupyuen
I still don't quite get what #LoRaWAN is. It sort of sounds like a wifi based LAN over a larger distance, that doesn't take as much power, but I have a feeling I'm probably way off.

@lupyuen @mzan You can still use a syslog daemon a daemontools or anything else beside journalctl on the same host or use a daemon other host via rsyslog. Systemd doesn't forbid to use other tools if you prefer in some specific cases. But it also allow a lot of things that couldn't be easily made with former system management, including user side daemon management, memorize the state (enable/disable) of a deamon, independently of the current usage (start/stop). There is an homogeneous syntax for services now, and lot of possible, prebuild dependencies/limits/notification parameters : man systemd.service
On ArchLinux, it take 24.3MB installed, that is a bit too big, for some architectures.

@lupyuen Swapfiles are always going to be less likely to work than swap partitions because there's so much more code involved due to the filesystem being in between the vm subsystem and the storage device.

Personally, I run my systems with no swap at all. But almost every computer I own has the maximum amount of ram possible installed.
