minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish13•6 days agoThis!! If little guy wants to brick his computer 3x times before getting it right , let him .
minus-squareSunshine (she/her)OPlinkfedilinkEnglish20•6 days agoI haven’t bricked my computer once running Linux and yet with Windows I have gotten the blue screen of death 3 times and lots of freezes.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish9•6 days agoI’ve nuked my bootloader entries a handful of times. I wouldn’t trust a 12yo to know how to fix that. But maybe I’m not giving 12yos enough credit 🤷
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish6•6 days agoWhy the downvote tho? If lil guy wants to brick it, let him.
minus-squareSunshine (she/her)OPlinkfedilinkEnglish10•6 days agoYou’re using biased phrasing against Linux and no they will not brick their system.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish3•5 days agoWow, right over your head dude. It’s just the sentiment he is sharing.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish5•6 days agolmfao but what if he wants to brick it ? Let him!!
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish7•6 days agoIf they’re going to brick it, it won’t be with Linux, but with a funky UEFI firmware. It’s incredibly hard to brick a computer by installing an OS.

minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish5•edit-26 days agoThis guy gets it! But in any case, I’d let him brick it. I would not be where I am if I had not bricked (for real) a couple of expensive devices during my youth.
