I don’t want the system to shutdown in the middle of the upgrade, but I’ve already started the upgrade in the GUI.

Is there a better way, maybe involving the apt lock?

EDIT: Thank you for all the helpful suggestions. Hopefully this helps the next person. My upgrade actually finished on its own while I was posting. 😂

    I was today years old when I learned that && on the command line is not just a after this do this shortcut, but rather how it is used literally everywhere else sort of thing. I am not a very bright knife in the shed.

      From the old world of UNIX: Using UNIX is always a series of small epiphanies. You will keep finding new options, tools, ideas, and shell snippets that will continually expand your skills.

      I’ve been using UNIX and then Linux since 1996. I find new little bits any time I go look. It’s a lifetime of curiosity awaiting for you.

      My daily epiphany: the commenter here who showed me:

      ^z fg; command

      I didn’t know you could append a command to fg and essentially chain to an already built process! Awesome.

      || has a similar “oh that’s how it works in other places” behavior. I didn’t realize that for a while.

        Yeah I feel pretty silly. I have a good amount of programming experience too, which certainly amplifies the whoosh lol
