Is this the gnu version of systemd?

edit: I know it's not a monolith like systemd but service/unit files are a core component of systemd

systemd is not a monolith.

It's a collection of losely coupled components and services of which basically every single one can be disabled or replaced by another implementation.

No it definitely is a monolith.

It's NOT loosely coupled in any way. Try running any part of the systemd software suite on an openrc system and see how that works out?

I have no idea why people are so insistent on claiming that its not a monolith, when it ticks off every box of what a monolith is.

In theory. In practice, systemd is a mess of different components that have subtle dependencies on each other. And while the core of systemd is solid enough, everything around it is not.

It's a collection of tightly-coupled components that are functionally a monolith because large distros tend to rely on the various components rather than allowing modularity.

"Pies" means "dog" in Polish an Ukrainian (пес).

Is that pronounced “peace” or “piss”?

More like pi+[y]es, but single syllable and no y.

EDIT: Here are three audio files to hear: https://pl.wiktionary.org/wiki/pies#pies_(j%C4%99zyk_polski)

As an American, I hear “pyes” - a single syllable “yes”, with a preceding “p.”

When do you use that vs собака (sobaka)?

I don't, I'm Polish. Can't say for sure for Ukrainians, don't know Ukrainian that well, but my reading of https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/%D1%81%D0%BE%D0%B1%D0%B0%D0%B... and https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/%D0%BF%D0%B5%D1%81#Ukrainian suggests that пес must be male, but собака is either male or female. I might be wrong.
