          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

      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”

        If my pc doesn’t shut down when I click on the shutdown button, I just pull it out of the wall or switch off the psu depending on my mood. At this point I think it’s just affraid of me

    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!

      There’s a kernel option to disable the text and it’s on by default on Arch, but not on Ubuntu.

      Edit: It seems that the kernel parameter is not on by default. I’ve always used GRUB and the text hasn’t appeared for me until I’ve removed the quiet option in the GRUB config file so I thought it was on by default. It might be on by default with GRUB or I’m remembering wrong.
