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.

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.
