There's a far cry from "I disagree" to "nothing of value".

I don't agree with everything Lawrence posts, and I've called
him out on his "snip and snark" style, but not everything he
posts is without merit.

Regarding the crowdstrike matter: It seems that Linux
systems would be much less vulnerable to such SNAFUs -- and
there are Linux distributions that don't use systemd, if
that is a concern.
