#pkill — Public Fediverse posts

Annoyances fixed (3) slapstick mode

With too many things to do (and no time to waste in this chaos world rat race in outer space) I tried a new idea today.

Imagine this annoyance : Desktop running Debian (with surname GNU/Linux if you prefer) with a desktop environment which is not KDE, GNOME or does not depend on fvwm95. After logging out, when going out or going to sleep I’ve been furious that lots of commands keeping running in the background.  And I was currently too impatient to search for a really really long time for logout session files options where this could be worked around.

So today I tried a new idea before … (cough) … NOT logging out :

pkill -u my_desktop_username_here

Works great! Can recommend! 🙂

The broad lines of the move from #Chrome to #Firefox are done.

Interesting. I closed all my Chrome windows. Then I do a check with `ps` and I still find Chrome processes running.

Bug?

"Feature?" (Yep, the quotes are deliberate.)

I had to use `pkill chrome` twice to kill the stragglers.
