  Quoting from the GitHub’s page:

  The exploit is a race condition that requires precise timing and several other conditions to be met for it to trigger successfully. As such it can take a while for that to happen.

  Which means that, sometimes, you run the code but it simply fails. When it happens, you can turn off the console and try again.

    Oh, ok. That makes sense.

  If i remember correctly, some memory address that needs to be overridden by the exploit is randomized on startup. The only way to find it is to just write to a random address, which often fails
