    Linux will try SIGQUIT first, and you can immediately kill a process in Windows too. taskkill /f /im firefox.exe

      Yeah, and when’s the last time anyone has legitimately seen Windows bluescreen for lack of RAM? I’m assuming that’s the “logic” here, because in what world would a stuck browser cause a full crash?

      Man, I sure love tech memes not remotely based in reality.

        Been a while since I’ve seen a bluescreen period. 10 and 11, for all their faults, have been pretty stable on that front. Crowdstrike did spoil a very good run.
