@JustCodeCulture@histodons@commodon Ah, the 6600 - We had 'em at UC Berkeley. The curse of doom would land on anyone who wrote a program that, down at the machine language level, had a jump to self. That would cause the cores holding that instruction to get red hot and eventually fail.
(I was present at the decommissioning of what I believe was the last 7600 at the Livermore Labs.)
Our computer room at SDC once held consoles that looked sort of like the one in the photo - but long rather than tall - from the SAGE Q7 and Q32 computers.
