Bluesky post by user @magnusbeefcastle.bsky.social that reads,

I INSTALLED “LINUX”. BECAUSE WINDOWS IS FOR MEN WHO ASK PERMISSION TO EXIST. I CRUSHED THE INSTALLER WITH MY BARE HANDS AND NOW THE TERMINAL CALLS ME “SIR” BUT MY KERNEL KEEPS PANICKING. WHAT COMMAND MAKES THE COMPUTER SUBMIT COMPLETELY? I REFUSE TO GOOGLE

    it’s not just looping; every instance starts two instances of itself waiting for input. it’s basically doing

    async def fork(): 
    f = fork()
    await fork(await f)

    …except python doesn’t start the second call until its arguments are evaluated, while shell does.

      Yeah, “loop” was a poor choice of keywords. My point was that replacing : with a more plain identifier helps it make sense. :)
