    I haven’t had a failed kernel update in years. Used to happen very occasionally with nvidia drivers, but honestly haven’t hit it in ages even with nvidia drivers.

      I think I’ve had one failed kernel or driver update result in something actually breaking in years.

      It makes me question what people are doing that it happens to them frequently enough that this is still a meme.

        One time my update bricked so hard. I just got a black screen then instant reboot loop. Took days to figure out but I eventually had to disassemble my PC and remove the graphics card. I later learnt a warning was accidentally elevated to a boot error which caused the bug; but I had to simply go without graphics card until they fixed it a few weeks later.
