My fav is a piped 'yes' command. I've seen it max SSD's out.

    Anything involving Network Downloads is a bad idea - it's unnecessarily slows down the process. I guess the fastest way would be to write a C programm with a while(true) loop that keeps creating smaller files and fills it with bullshit text, think "fffffffffff".

    1. Open new terminal window on coworker’s computer
    2. Type “cat /dev/zero > /some/random/file &”
    3. Press enter
    4. Close terminal window
    5. Walk away while laughing maniacally
