can you explain this for me please, without the use of google

Dude I'm actually 26 yo

then why do you post papes that children would use? I think that is the point anon was trying to make. not sure just tired
>>6737275
not quite sure but i think its a windows batch file fork bomb
>>6737275
Sure, let me re-write it real quick
:() {
: | :
};

So, you have a function called ":", inside this function, you call call ":", so recursive call, and you pipe it into ":" again. Basically, when you call ":", you create two new call to your function.
In the last line you just call ":".
This will fill your RAM and use your CPU 100% and most likely freeze your computer.

thank you very much, nobody on /g/ wanted to explain this

pick one

I understand every up to the | symbol.
What does it mean? And wouldn't it never reach that symbol because the recursive function will just call itself over and over again
>>6738243
It's sending the output of the first ":" to the second
like if you do "echo blablagoyblabla" | grep goy", it'll send the output of echo to grep.
I don't know how a fork bomb work exactly but I'm sure there are plenty of article that explain it way better than I ever will.

I know a bit of programming and know how this self recursive function would work, but what about the "&" sign? That sing has so reason to be there.
>>6738802
I think it had something to do with keeping the function in memory.
It's called a fork bomb if you want to look it up more.
There's a wallpaper i've been looking for forever that i lost a long time ago.
It was really simple, kind of vector-artish, had 3 mountain-looking islands in the middle of the water with the sun shining down. Not quite WindWaker aesthetic, but in that same vein.

It was sort of like this, but the mountains were rounder, the water was a much lighter blue, and it was much happier. Same kind of minimalistic idea.
