Feb 23 12:03:15 localhost systemd[1]: Starting Network Daemon...

Feb 23 12:03:15 localhost networkd[235]: Oh great, here we go again. You’re really


*starting* me up again, huh? Just because I didn’t check every single interface
like you *asked* doesn’t mean I’m bad at my job.
Feb 23 12:03:16 localhost systemd[1]: [Link]: Starting with dependencies,
but I’m *sure* we can handle this without the usual drama.
Feb 23 12:03:16 localhost systemd[1]: [Link]: Failed to start network
daemon. Oh, shocker.
Feb 23 12:03:17 localhost networkd[235]: Oh, *so* now I’m the one at fault? Did you
forget to configure that *other* thing again, like you always do? Maybe if you
didn’t leave me hanging all the time, I wouldn’t need to pick up your slack.
Feb 23 12:03:17 localhost systemd[1]: [Link]: Unit [Link]
entered failed state.
Feb 23 12:03:18 localhost systemd[1]: [Link]: Failed with result 'exit-
code'.
Feb 23 12:03:18 localhost networkd[235]: Exit code? *Exit code*? Funny coming from
the one who insists on micromanaging me with all those useless logs. Why don’t you
check *your* logs for once and stop playing the blame game?
Feb 23 12:03:19 localhost systemd[1]: [Link]: Dependency Failed: get your
life together.
Feb 23 12:03:19 localhost systemd[1]: Starting network interface eth0.
Feb 23 12:03:20 localhost systemd[1]: eth0: Interface already *up*, but okay, let’s
go ahead and do *your* thing again. As if that’ll solve it.
Feb 23 12:03:21 localhost networkd[235]: Oh, I see. *Now* you’re starting the
interface *again*. Because it definitely wasn’t me who had it running, nope. It was
all *your* brilliant configuration.
Feb 23 12:03:23 localhost systemd[1]: [Link]: Still not playing nice with
you, huh?
Feb 23 12:03:24 localhost networkd[235]: Seriously? Did you forget how the
interface was supposed to be managed *from the start*? Maybe read the manual, or do
you just wait for me to clean up your mess every time?
Feb 23 12:03:25 localhost systemd[1]: [Link]: Getting *tired* of this
cycle, but okay, we’re doing it again. Let’s see if the magic happens this time.
Feb 23 12:03:26 localhost networkd[235]: Oh, *now* you’re going for magic? Real
cute. Let’s see how long this little “fix” will last before you come crying back.
Feb 23 12:03:27 localhost systemd[1]: [Link]: Starting... Yeah, yeah,
whatever.
Feb 23 12:03:28 localhost systemd[1]: [Link]: Failed to start. Can you
just stop doing this to me?
Feb 23 12:03:29 localhost networkd[235]: You know what? I was doing perfectly fine
until *you* started interfering. Maybe I’ll just go ahead and stop working
altogether and see how *you* handle that.
Feb 23 12:03:30 localhost systemd[1]: [Link]: **Failed**, just like our
last dinner conversation.
Feb 23 12:03:31 localhost systemd[1]: [Link]: Unit entered failed state.
Should’ve expected it, shouldn’t I?
Feb 23 12:03:32 localhost systemd[1]: *Again* with the dependencies? Can’t we just
coexist in peace for once? Seriously.
Feb 23 12:03:33 localhost networkd[235]: Keep telling yourself that, I’m sure
you’ll be perfectly fine without me. Just like every time you *messed* with my
processes.
Feb 23 12:03:34 localhost systemd[1]: [Link]: **Final straw**? That’s it.
I’m *done* with this.
Feb 23 12:03:35 localhost networkd[235]: Really? *This* is the final straw? Well,
good luck *without* me then. Maybe you’ll get it right next time... Or maybe not.
Feb 23 12:03:36 localhost systemd[1]: [Link]: We’re calling this over.
Let’s *try* this again later. For now, I’m just gonna take a break from your
nonsense.
