Challenge: post code that causes the most damage to a Windows or Linux machine. Bonus points if it destroys hardware
>>

it can brick your system if you use systemd.

Just use a hammer.
>>
>>54596032
Any good asm source code on a row hammer?

Preferably for Linux.
>>
>>54596061
>row hammer
good luck, dipshit.
you'll need it.
>>
>>54596017
You don't need some haxor l33t skillz to do that. Just use software:
MSI Afterburner
MSI CommandCenter
AMD OverDrive
Intel Desktop Control Center
CPU Tweaker
SetFSB
All this stuff will not only cause instability, but can also 1-click destroy hardware, and is freeware.
>>
>>54596017
>if it destroys hardware
Is it even possible on modern hardware?

I know that on certain motherboard with shitty UEFI implementation you could wipe the EFI variables effectively bricking it. But it still doesn't physically damage the hardware, just restore the firmware and call it a day

Overclocking without cooler

Download graphics card boosting software and turn the voltage up to max.

>it can brick your system if you use systemd
It can brick any system, regardless of systemd. The fact that systemd is used or not is completely irrelevant.
>>
>>54596762
Not so much
Without systemd, you could have reinstalled to the (now blank) hard drive
With systemd, you'll need a new motherboard too

>>54596890
EFI should not break when the variables are cleared, it's ridiculous.
>>
>>54596807
But you're wrong. Nothing in systemd mandates to mount efivarsfs as rw (some distro mount it as ro per default), and systemd is not responsible for sloppy EFI implementations.
>>54596890
>I've read something moronix.com and I pretend I've understood it
Colour me surprised.
If you're root you can hose any shitty UEFI implementation, regardless of systemd. Limiting root makes no sense.
>>
>>54596890
>can do the same on Windows with 20 lines of code
>blames systemd
You missed the part where it's clearly stated
>It's not a systemd-specific issue at all but any distribution (or operating system for that matter) mounting EFI variables not as read-only.

How about just turning your computer on without a cooler.

What you said is like poisoning a blade and then stabbing someone in the heart.

http://www.linfo.org/int_0x80.html

Interrupt 0x80 is a Linux system call. The call is specified in the EAX register.

2 appears to be "fork", so I'm guessing this program spawns itself endlessly in an attempt to crash teh system.

You spelled uefi wrong.

So... You're going to format only the root directory?
