After a few unexpected reboots/powerdowns (hardware battery controller of my
thinkpad locked up and needed reset), I found that there are no journal entries
persisted since I rebooted on august 20:

```
mixi:~ # journalctl --since "2024-08-20 20:54:57"|head

I did reboot a few times already today:
```
mixi:~ # last reboot|head

But journalctl does not know about those:
```
