If you hit Ctrl Alt Delete very quickly in succession (I believe it’s 7 times in a row) it will bail out from a stop job and proceed with shutting down
Learned that trick because I was so tired of seeing that occur ha. Along that research I swear I recall seeing that it’s a KDE/SDDM issue but I might be getting some wires crossed on that (and thus, don’t quote me/take my word on that 😅)
systemd moment in the sense that someone not affiliated with systemd used systemd to write a stop job that doesn’t terminate quickly? Or that you willingly installed software that brought along a slow stop job with it?
This is like so far away from systemd’s fault, idk, it must just be a meme right?
Pretty sure i’ve had this happen with services i didn’t even create, but yeah it was just a joke, i don’t care about init systems, but i don’t recall this ever happening when i was using runit.
I don’t know runit. Maybe runit didn’t even have a way to delay or customize shutdown, maybe it always just waits 5 seconds and then forcibly terminates a process, resulting in you never noticing when a cleanup job was too slow. Maybe you just randomly never installed a particular program with a slow shutdown job while using runit. There’s a bunch of reasonable explanations and possibilities for why this difference exists, and they can all mean systemd is perfectly reasonable.
I hate this message

Alright man, fact remains i was just making a silly joke, you don’t have to be poettering’s pr team lol
You’re the one who brought up runit and insinuated it doesn’t have this problem ¯_(ツ)_/¯
I said i never experienced this problem with runit, not that it can’t happen. It was anecdotal.
Dahm been quite a bit since I’ve seen this one. Wonder what changed on my system?
When I forget to close explicitly Steam before shutdown
Praise all the syatemd gods
