    That's just about the only thing I care about in systemd-homed, since my actual solution is encrypting the whole home partition (far from ideal in a multi user environment). I can hardly even imagine a scenario where the portable home thing will be of any use to me.

      Not sure how to do that deterministicly if your design goal is to have stable uids across multiple systems without any central instance

        homed doesn't guarantee a stable UID.

        meh, I don't know why in the Linux world we haven't replaced UIDs by some sort of GUID system.

          you didn't really think systemd is a single monolithic software running everything from a bootloader to init to login manager in the same application and run it as PID1, right?
          'AIGHT?

          ah so there is other people calling you asshole? That's reassuring to know I'm not alone in thinking that
          Still can't read; have the simplest of problems with comprehension, right, shit-head?

          Read the post again:

          "...there, the moderators--not just the "echo chamber" forum users--get actively involved by telling YOU what an a**hole YOU are.

          Get that word: "YOU". Mean anything to "YOU"? Does anything in the English language mean anything to YOU?

          I realize how tough this is for a non-carbon-based life-form like you. Have someone with an I.Q. way above yours--say, somewhere in the room-temperature region--explain this to you--if indeed you can even find someone who will undertake a fool's errand such as this.

          And don't give us any hints; we don't need any--it's obvious that you're one of the knuckle-draggers who make up the Mint Linux "echo chamber".

            Yeesh. I think I speak for everyone when I say you should consider getting some counseling.

              No, people who play amateur internet forum psychologist are more annoying than people who post rants.

                Doesn't take a psychologist to see when someone is unstable.

                  My point exactly, just an amateur internet psychologist who reads life instability into people's random forum posts.

                    ... what? You literally didn't make a point.

                    EDIT: Also, guy walks into a store, starts knocking stuff down, telling people their IQ is small, and starts yelling at everyone... would you not think that person is ill? Same thing happening here dude.

                      Actually, whatever, I speak for everyone except for andyprough since he appears to want to die on this hill.
