Windows is doing stuff behind that splash screen too though
And arch does the exact same thing as Ubuntu :/ not sure what they are trying to say with this one.
Yeah idk, many distros show the classic startup/shutdow process
Mine just kills the power. Faster than manually unplugging the pc
Did you configure it that way? I’m fairly sure the default is to safely shutdown via systemd. How do disk caches get flushed, are you setup to never cache in memory, or do you just lose data?
I don’t know what I did but it does that anyway, and I think it’s cool. I like to use my pc in the very very not recommended way so I’m not 100% sure if it’s normal behavior, but it did that on multiple installs so it probably is
Chaotic mofo 😂
You’re forgetting the 10 minutes of mandatory Windows updates.
I remember going from MS-DOS to Windows and being really annoyed that I couldn’t see the loading log.
Same with Android phones in the beginning when they were still the scrappy underdog. I wanted to see machinery at work!
I would rather watch console output I don’t understand scrolling by too fast to read than some dumb spinning dots >:[
A stop job is running for Simple Desktop Display Manager
I think you can configure systemd to force shutdown such things in like 2 seconds which is the only way I can shut down my Thinkpad running Debian 12.
So real
Wait you guys don’t
sudo echo o > /proc/sysrq-trigger
?I think you’d have to do
echo o | sudo tee /proc/sysrq-trigger
, otherwise sudo only works for the echo, not the write.Holy shit the reason for
tee
never really clicked until I saw this post. I’d used it in pasted commands, but it had always seemed superfluous.What does
tee
do?It writes to a file like
, and echos it back at the same time; in this case the latter isn’t needed (we’re just using it to write with sudo), but it’s good to know.
echo c | sudo tee /proc/sysrq-trigger
🫣Ah I guess I just use sudo bash a lot 😅
button?

I get stuck on a black screen about every 10 or so reboots/shutdowns
