sudo reboot -h nowLet's get completely unnecessary:
You, like me, must be old.
I also frequently pass
-lto thesshcommand.I'm not old, I just like how short the command is
Fair enough, I can respect that.
I didn't get that.
Checked the
manand it's not deprecated. So what does it have to do with "old"?Nowadays most Linux users seem to use
ssh user@host. When I was getting started, that didn't exist (or at least I was unaware of it) so I still frequently use the-lflag instead.Nothing wrong with it, just that at least I mostly encounter its use by experienced users.
OIC. Good to know in case I ever have to work on some old CentOS 5 box lying around ever again.
It also looks kinda proper, using that instead of the
@, so when making shell scripts, I might want to prefer this.https://youtu.be/PeWMwrdFBw0?t=144
sudo shutdown -r nowI just flick the switch on the surge protector.
Alt+SysRq-O
sudo reboot 0...is my go-to.
reboot -f
