I am ready to be ridiculed and embarrassed ha! So I have a Ubuntu VPS, and say I SSH into it and start Hydra, Hydra can take a while. And I usually don't stay on the VPS for that long, nor the computer. Is there a way to have tasks like Hydra stay running even when I close the session? And when I SSH back into it, have the results either in a file, or if it's still ongoing then for it to come back? I'm super sorry! Hydra is just an example, I mean any programs that need to run for awhile.

Use tmux for this. You can attach processes to it that will stay alive after you've exited from ssh. Tmux can be installed from the repositories
An alternative would be to create systemd service, that starts your code independently from your ssh session. The creation of a simple systemd service is described here
