CTRL+ALT+FN2 (tty 2)?

Canโ€™t ssh in?

ssh doesn't work when there is an infinite loop in a process somewhere eating all the CPU and memory.

Use nice before your command

man nice

Fair enough, sir.

You don't even know which process?

In this specific case I did know what process and I managed to kill it before it hogged the entire computer, but other times I wasn't so lucky.

Running a Linux machine requires some dexterity.

Do you want an operating system? Or do you want an adventure? ๐Ÿง

Oof. Ctrl+Alt+F2 to a console and either go berserk on the process or create an additional swap on the fly using a swapfile. That might make the SSD hot though by swapping - depends on the process. Godspeed

No sysrq response either?
