@rysiek each of those locations in managed differently.

/usr/lib can be managed by individual packages, so they can add and delete things.

/etc/* packages can add things, but they can't delete them. They're allowed to be edited by the user and might not be upgradable. So effectively cruft builds up there.

/run/ is for runtime stuff probably configured by other services that shouldn't persist from one boot to the next.

This really isn't a systemd thing, but a result of Debian package policy.

@popey I think your statement is derogatory, AI ladies can be all kinds of different shapes.

Still find it weird that all the big company ones are women's voices. Glad that Mycroft isn't.

@freakazoid I don't disagree, but I also don't see why people can't be more than one of your list.

And I'd also say that misogyny is effectively part of the GOP's platform.

@freakazoid or really partisan. i.e. they simply don't want the Democrats to win no mater what.
