It depends on whether you're a server or PC. For PCs (as in personal computing) I agree systemd-networkd-wait-online.service should be disabled. For servers, I think it's plausible that you require a network to be at all meaningful, especially if there's some sort of database.

Maribou State reminds me of Blonde Redhead. If you want to give them a try, don't start with Melody of Certain Damaged Lemons (which is popular thanks to the track "For the Damaged Coda" becoming a meme. I do like it a lot but it's probably too indie rock for your tastes), try 23 or Sit Down for Dinner. (The production style on the album reminds me of In Rainbows by Radiohead but 1. you've probably tried that already 2. the music writing style is very different)

I had a hard time pinning down Bonobo because my goodness there's so much variety in what he makes (IMO). What sides of his music are you most fond of?

Parov Stelar is electro-swing. I don't know much about it since it's not a genre I'm fond of … Apparently the usual recommendation is Caravan Palace.

Seven Beats seems like shoegaze without guitar. I could be very wrong about this. Try perhaps Cigarettes After Sex?

Here's some stretches that are somewhat adjacent to these genres but I'm only including because I really like them instead of because they're similar to what you listen to. Ordered from slightly more likely to much less likely, I'll put what it's tangentially adjacent to (in parentheses):

  • "Ambushed" and "Close" by Télépopmusik
  • (Emancipator) "Write Back" by KidTokio
  • (Nigel Stanford) "Reapers" by Muse
  • (Nigel Stanford) "Well Met/Fingers Through The Fence" by Squid
  • (Nigel Stanford) "Firefly" by Jim Yosef

should we have a "no mass downvoting" rule? too often I see an unpopular opinion post where every OP comment just gets blanket downvoted despite very much engaging in good faith

this sounds like being proud of a western bias. we are the fortunate. it should be our duty to consider perspectives that have been disadvantaged and where information about this side of the internet doesn’t flow as freely as it does in the first-world culture.

was saying “uneducated” wrong? sure. but who was responsible for the frustration and misunderstanding that led to using that word in the first place?

they don’t just wrap locations in brackets, they wrap every single link in brackets so the software knows to make it a link. wikipedia’s big shtick is making articles have tons of link to each other so that is not easy to figure out which one is the location

not to mention examples like Terminator 1:

Filming for ''The Terminator'' was set to begin in early 1983 in [[Toronto]], but was halted when producer [[Dino De Laurentiis]] applied an option in Schwarzenegger's contract that would make him unavailable

when they started filming, the set was moved to Los Angeles. following a link in that section to Rambo 2:

The film was shot between June and August 1984 [[Location shooting|on location]] in the state of [[Guerrero]], Mexico, and [[Thailand]].

clearly, the movie wasn't shot in "Location shooting", and we can't just discard Thailand when placing all of the films dots on a map. similarly, Get Out begins with "[[Principal photography]] began on February 16, 2016."
