I really couldn't just let this occasion pass

OK, this is a presentation by someone who manages many Linux-desktops and is
used to how things used to be in the Unix/Linux world.

Good or bad, things have changed in the last few years in most Linux 
distributions.

The presenter is trying to explain what is has become more complicated or
isn't even possible anymore with the new setup.

'luckily' Lennart Poettering was in the audience to 'help' explain why :

The presentation is funny and sad at the same time. It shows you what he is
like and what he thinks.

Lennart Poettering has vision of what thinks need to be improved for Linux on
the desktop (possible server too). But he seems to always want to do big
changes and not every idea always actually reaches it's full potential.

His intensions are obviously good, but maybe he doesn't work well with others
as he doesn't let others choose what they want. Like with systemd, where he
has basically said: "the Linux API is the new Posix"

I've got a feeling Lennart Poettering will never be loved in the Linux
community because of it.

Especially not by the BSD-community ;-)
