          In those cases there’s an easy solution.

          Step 1: sigh

          Step 2: press the power button 5 or 10 seconds while contemplating why you decided to do a quick restart instead of keeping the session and do something actually productive

            I recommend starting with SysRq+E before that, there’s a chance it gets whatever the shutdown was waiting for. And if that fails… REISUB my beloved.

        I couldn’t find better screenshot, but I’ve definitely seen this happening due to zombie processes after just regular use, rather than just broken mount. I feel like it’s handled way better nowadays though.

        user error? what user error? mount a network drive, disconnect the network, then try to unmount it. best part? most programs will stall for a long time when it tries to access the directory.

    also yes i know shutdown typically uses sigterm and waits nicely, but it doesn’t take 45 seconds for no damn reason like windows

    also sigkill is funnier

      Windows: the shutdown mechanism cannot execute correctly because this process is still running:

      ShutDownProcess

    Reverse meme when it’s time to install the updates.

    Windows in that case is “I MUST REBOOT IMMEDIATELY PREPARE TO LOSE ALL UNSAVED DATA IN 3. 2. 1…”

      When I switched to win 10, I actually gave them more money to get the pro version for access to the group policy editor so I could control updates and never have to deal with my PC telling me it’s time to restart on its own. Because I was stupid.

      When it came time to switch to Win 11, I did the much more sensible thing and installed Fedora instead. I started with cinnamon and even though I ended up disliking it also, it was still way better than the windows experience.
