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.

Why the downvote tho? If lil guy wants to brick it, let him.

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

lmfao but what if he wants to brick it ? Let him!!

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.
