Windows after pressing shutdown and update: you wanted to use me still right???
It’s a screenshot of a screenshot in a video? What’s that shield?
Just do sysrq+s, sysrq+c (triggers panic) and flip the power switch for instant power off.
goddamn generation loss-ass meme.
windows: installing updates, do not power off
me: the fuck you are dismantles laptop and rips out battery
Linux: shutdown now
me turning off the power supply: (i didn’t have anything open so hopefully it’s fine…)
On my work PC I disabled automatic restarts and I’ll just hibernate it for weeks at a time, keeping my work stuff open. Convenient, and I can install updates when I choose to.
My Windows is more like “I am scheduling the restart. Pray I don’t schedule it any sooner.”
Mine will do the restart and boot into Linux.
Windows Updates are always like that. Halfway through it’s got to restart, bootloader picks Linux, Windows doesn’t get to finish the other half of its update til the next time it’s chosen.
You can configure Grub to boot into whichever entry you last selected. Makes rebooting much more convenient
Is Linux higher in your boot priority?
Linux is higher in any priority.
Always has been.
When I had a dualboot, that’s how I ordered it.
you know you can make it so the last used OS gets booted right?
Windows just randomly installing updates only when I’m working on something with a customer.
one of the reasons I’m moving away. pisses me off so much at work, I don’t even want it at home
I like how you censored systemd
People need to learn that it’s ok to say systemd on the Internet and stop self censoring
Let’s not get carried away. Fuck and shit are ok, but I draw the line at s*****d
init.dstraight to jail
Yes, let’s keep this community family friendly. I could do without such obscenities.
This is just not true.
- Linux does have a graceful process.
- Windows’s process is not graceful
I am one of lucky 10 000 Thanks
Same
same here!
Managed to wreck my NVMe drive with an unsafe shutdown on linux the other week, gave it a few hours for the self check, booted back into the distro and has been running fine ever since.
Pretty sure windows would’ve just set the computer on fire at this point.
Linux is so strong I turn it off from the power button. Saving 5 seconds.
That’s weak. I always pull on the power cord until the plug comes out. That shuts it down in a second flat.
I was talking about a laptop with non-removable battery of course! I turn off my desktop via Zigbee remote hooked to Home Assistant which flips a Zigbee power switch that the AC power cord is hooked up to. Even faster death than going under the desk and unplugging the power cord. Even just unplugging itself takes time.
I’m a little spoiled by this. I did it on Windows and had to rebuild the boot partition.
One thing I’ve seen my computer do a few times: log me out, by itself. Some rare times I try and unlock back into my session, my current open and active user with my programs running, and instead I am greeted not by my desktop as it was when I locked the screen, but rather the lock screen as it was before I even logged in the first time around
That random systemd service waiting 1.5 minutes.
You all not suspend/hibernate?
Mine suspends immediately.
