Quoting from the article:

   TimeoutStopSec=0

That's cost me more than one hard power button powerdon (on a desktop machine with the system partition on SSD - unnerving).

One of the innumerable things that systemd stops on shutdown gets stuck - permanently - and the machine goes into a state out of which, to my knowledge, is only a powerdown or reset.

I ended up searching for the above and replacing them with a reasonable timeout (several minutes).

That's fair, that example would be better with a modest timeout (e.g. if podman had a bug that caused it to hang), without taking away from the main points. Updated.

Someone asked about the opposite on Twitter: https://twitter.com/DannoHung/status/1585350836074446869
