    Yeah I mean. To me “shutting down the computer” means I’ll be going away from it

    Like if I’m going out the house or to bed.

    At that point I just tell the computer to turn off and walk away

    Also really, waiting two minutes is not a big deal. Y’all are too spoiled by modern machines. Just go have a cup of coffee/water/diet coke/take a piss while your OS does its thing if you’re doing a reboot for some reason.
