Would you drink the systemd juice?
@SuperDicq systemctl start systemd-beveraged
@SuperDicq it would be the only thing I would drink if possible ⚡️
@SuperDicq Yes please, I have own Unix pipe for it.
@SuperDicq does it taste like poettering tears?
@SuperDicq Sure, as long as the Kernel's untainted 

@SuperDicq would definitly prefer it over windumb blueescreen of death juice.

BUt wtf: Why is a Computer in there.

@jakob_thoboell @SuperDicq I'm kinda guessing "we want to drive an LCD screen for each flavor" became "we want a simple and modular addressable device to point an image at which will display it", became "Raspberry Pis are really cheap, might as well just put one in each module".

When you want as much as possible to be field replaceable units, honestly if each screen is a PoE port, that's... pretty serviceable!

@jakob_thoboell

A computer isn't needed but makes it a lot much easier to construct and maintain such machines than a 70th analog control.

But a computer with an OS...🙈 😂

One 1st generation Arduino per Channel could easy handle the whole technical requirements.

But it's not about technical stuff. It's about the capability to use such machines as POS eye catcher and advertising space.

@SuperDicq

@jakob_thoboell
Gotta be able to change the image to show what drink is in there! Don't mind that you need to physically put another drink in so could just change a plastic thingy as well?
@SuperDicq
@SuperDicq hmm, is that systemd kool aid?
@SuperDicq @claudiom It's the liquid version of the blue pill…
@SuperDicq No, because I'd be terrified that that drink would take over my entire life to the point I would have to have some just to wake up in the morning and would be shipping cases of blue slush to work simply so I had the needed focus to make decisions of when to start or stop working on things. Not to say the horror of having to put a freezer by my bedside table simply so I could get a slurp to stop thinking and shut down for the day.

@SuperDicq

My name alone it sounds safer than the blue Dew next to it, but since it looks the same as blue Dew, maybe not

@SuperDicq Yes, anything blue sounds good
@SuperDicq, no, nor the Slur Pee stuff next to it.
@SuperDicq I love the fact every single thing gets its own SoC.
@SuperDicq root beer, but not the root you’re expecting.

Do you suppose the tap colors are also programmable? Variable on the fly?

Aleatoric swamp-juice?

@SuperDicq

@SuperDicq juice that controls your cgroups
@SuperDicq I'll take the Poettering Light with ZFS flavour, please
@SuperDicq too daemonic for me!
@SuperDicq It's systemd-bsod flavored, because it's blue
@SuperDicq ahhhhhh... the refreahing taste of terminals, shells and TUIs

@SuperDicq Yet another system utility consumed by the ever growing systemd 🙄

Where are the good ol' days when you wrote your own beverage scripts smh those zoomers

@SuperDicq That's actually awesome that it's powered by Linux!
@SuperDicq maybe, but not the journald juice, that one is a splinter hazard because it's full of logs
@ricci @SuperDicq something something space shuttle mission that had to be cut short because the captain's log wouldn't flush
@SuperDicq Sounds like a variety of Kool-Aid for a SysVinit fan.

The problem is, @SuperDicq, it just says "waiting for flavor" and eventually you hit Ctrl-C and drink water.

Cc: @seabass @kevin

@SuperDicq

As long there no malicious ingredients in it.

@SuperDicq send me to that bluescreen nirvana.
@SuperDicq that would be a nice upstart
@SuperDicq the scariest part about this is it means each screen might be driven by a separate computer/SBC.

so a fucking drink dispenser contains like 9 separate and independent computers, whose sole purpose is to show you ads

And people complain that consumers are generating too much e-waste
@SuperDicq Remote assistance should scale and take care. If it does not, replace company providing assistance. And meanwhile give out free drinks, if the output is not even coupled with the display thing and its systemd-beveraged.
@SuperDicq or select your SodaOS?
@SuperDicq "errrm, I perfer OpenRC" 🤓
