I know why DBus exists, It's a hack to provide modern operating system
features on top of the nearly useless, entirely obsolete, linux kernel.
To be honest, I had not imagined such a feat could be accomplished, but
by a herculean programming effort, you have made it possible for someone
to apply a slightly less herculean effort to actually use it. (such is
the inherent, unavoidable cost of a kludge). The only other option is to
move the entire world to L4. =\
Now here's what I don't understand. (this is from Top).

Can someone please explain to me what the hell is going on?
