If you're going to crash...

[Madrayken]

...at least ensure your fricking processes terminate correctly. I have lost about 6 hours of work over the last two days due to every fuggering host I own crashing, then leaving threads that can't be terminated, thus requiring a complete system reboot (about 10 mins each time).

I'm talking to you, eXT 1 & 2 and FLStudio.

In the words of the immortal bard, 'Ack!'


It's late. I'm tired. I have a deadline. In the morning I shall probably regret the rant, but for now it feels cathartic, like leaning on a horn in a traffic jam.

.. crash a white horse!

Yes eXT gets stuck if it crashes. If I leave it long enough (about 15 mins) then it eventually seems to terminate but is quicker just to reboot
