Task manager: not responding
-
$ sudo kill -9 1fuck you$ echo "c" > /proc/sysrq-trigger☠
-
As someone who's relatively new to Linux, anyone want to explain what these lines would do? I'm aware of KILL, but dunno what the '-9' refers to. Not familiar with sysrq-trigger
-
The
killcommand allows you to specify which type of kill signal you want to send.-9sends signal 9 or SIGKILL, and we're sending it to pid1.That would force kill systemd, which I just have to assume will send your computer to a crashing halt.
The echo command is writing
"c"to a file at/proc/sysrq-triggerwhich I don't really know how it works but this suggests you'll "crash the system without first unmounting file systems or syncing disks attached to the system."I haven't installed
fuckso I'm not sure how that works

Task Manager stopped responding
-
I work as a helpdesk tech and I always say that I killed a task in task manager when writing up ticket notes.
-
I'm surprised Microsoft hasn't removed task manager yet.

Did you mean xkill?
-
Only works on xorg
-
I miss xkill. I recently switched to Wayland but xkill worked instantly 100% of the time.

killall
Note: Only use it sparingly. We don't want another skynet.

Meanwhile, a Linux user wipes blood off a sledgehammer with "SIGKILL" written on the handle
In the immortal words of Monzy:
I pull out my keyboard / and I pull out my gloc / and I dismount your girl / and I mount slash proc / cos I've got your pid / and the bottom line / is you best not front / or its kill dash nine
Doesn't seem to work for me. If Rustdesk goes rogue, it refuses to die. I might need to practice some more command-line-fu though.
