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.
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?
It is. Just never says what’s hung.
Frankly It’s more like
Windows - “shut down please. No it’s fine, I’ll wait. Indefinately is fine”
Linux “ shut down please. You have 30 seconds or I’ll shut you down myself”
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!
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.
