  @nazokiyoubinbou mounting with the sync option can have a pretty big impact on performance though, and probably won't achieve much that unmounting (which will wait for the filesystem to sync) doesn't already do, just something to keep in mind if it's behaving abnormally slow. The other thing to consider here is that the disk itself may have an unwritten cache. I've done something like this previously and had to use the sg_sync command before powering the disk off, i was seeing d...

  @jee you should be able to do this by adding the "tries=N" option to its entry in /etc/crypttab (crypttab also has a manpage if you want more details). You'll also need to regenerate the initrd with dracut (the command I keep in muscle memory is dracut --regenerate-all -fv) to get the new crypttab into the early-boot environment. Just an additional note to be careful with these things since it can be challenging to recover - try to avoid typos etc :)

  "Social cohesion" does not, should not, and must not ever mean collective indifference #auspol

  I'm mesmerised by the word-play of "united indifference" vs "united in difference", and wish i had the art skills to make something of it. Something where the former shows what happens when evil is ignored and allowed to fester, whereas the latter shows the beauty strength and solidarity of celebrating peoples differences across all the spectrums. I think i'd be willing to commission something along those lines if i could find someone with a matching style but I&#39...

  It certainly seems that Australia has plenty of social cohesion - and it's Minns and NSW police who are falling short. Unless they backtrack hard and fast, I can't see this ending well for them. #auspol
