      I 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.

        I’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 🤷

          You’re using biased phrasing against Linux and no they will not brick their system.

              If 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.

      Presumably your using the word “brick” wrong. Or are you suggesting this poor person buys 4 computers until they learn how to do something?

        This 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.
