Not exactly as funny meme as I would like it to be, but I just found out about that feature after having to hold the power button due to a frozen system countless times, and I had to tell someone.

    It makes system unresponsive, true. But its still running the main things, the render or decompressing or whatever. So it eventually unfreezes when it completes, by giving other programs(including GUI) back the CPU and ram.

      Ok so killing is worse than just keeping alive.

      This is a fair point.

      I dont know a good solution for this, not killing but freezing is likely the best.

      I dont know

        Preferences matter too. Some like their progrms to be killed. Some may want it to run anyway however possible
