I found my friend's terminal on.
Did an experiment:-
while true; do
firefox
done

I was so sorry for his laptop.

Did the cd tray open and barf out orange blue puke?

That command would literally only open one instance of firefox and wait until it's closed, and then open another.

Yeah, you forgot the nice little & symbol

@kescherRant actually it is opening multiple instances, and at a great speed, it hanged mine and my friend's laptop

@MrBinary I just ran that command. It literally only works if you put an & there.

@kescherRant what version of Firefox ate you using? I just ran that same command and it didn't block

There is a setting to allow multiple instances of Firefox. If you don't have it enabled, then the loop will only open one at a time. If it's enabled though, bye bye computer.

Why am I so tempted to do it on mine?

@Dave-Elec

Maybe just do it with a limit. Do a ten element loop, and see if your machine melts. Keep pushing until you get that magic number of destruction. So you will know. Then when someone asks you about your machine's specs, you can tell them it's X Firefoxes.

@bahua Well my shitty laptop is 33 firefox

@Dave-Elec

That's awesome.

You're a monster.
