rm became low orbit ion cannon?

LOIC is almost certainly `yes`

Eh, 'yes' stops talking as soon as the recipient stops listening.

The trick is to make sure the recipient's always "listening":

    nohup yes >/dev/null

With that, 'yes' is still pegging one of my cores even though I've closed the terminal.
