TOPIC - Systemd: Love it, hate it, it's here!

A general discussion of systemd with no real focus other than to dispel
myths and introduce the system to those who have had it forced upon them.
Q&A will be taken, of course, if there is time.

There's not a lot to say: for most people, it's completely under the hood.
For the rest, we'll talk a bit about all that can be done with it:
> udev
> systemd journal
> D-Bus, KD-Bus, PolicyKit
> Multi-seat
> Easy service prototyping and development
> Virtual machines as system services
> And more!
