What's wrong with executing the parrent?

[–] pryre@lemmy.world 19 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

If you execute a parent, you end up with living or zombie children that you need to find and put down.

That's how a parent daemonises their child. With their own sacrifice.

[–] MonkderVierte@lemmy.zip 5 points 3 weeks ago

The sacrifice must be voluntary or you'll end up with zombies.
