From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

No way, Debian uses systemd, and systemd uses systemd-journald for logging, and doesn't need cron, because it has timers.
Since systemd is default since Jessie (~2015), the question arises: How old is the billboard? Or how old is the software running on it?
Semi-embedded shit like this is always astoundingly outdated.
I'm on debian bookworm right now and running rsyslogd and cron, because I prefer them.
Cron is active on all my Debian 12 boxes
