Let's be honest. If you haven't broken your bootloader at some point in time, you haven't experienced Linux.
As a Linux noob, the only time I've broken my bootloader was updating my distro after ignoring it for a year. I ignored the update because it broke a badly made script badly solving the complex problem caused by a simple problem that I ignored the solution to.
I finally fixed the simple problem because I needed to upgrade a library to get a modded launcher working so I could play with my friends. And I was thinking of rewriting the firmware for my macro keyboard to be better structured anyways.
I went back to the old firmware with a simple fix as the new one has a weird bug that if I hold two "even" keys at once, I get spammed down signals for the higher order one.
Linux has been fun!
I started writing that, got a little carried away, then decided even if no one cares, talking into the void has always been cathartic
Hi, the void here.
I care, and it sounds like you did have a real proper Linux experience. Good for you. =)
I get that, sometimes it can feel like "why am I even bothering to write a big long comment" but there's no need to apologise for it. Not everything we say or write has to be profound, sometimes people just want to share a story!
And I feel your pain as well, I had a similar issue updating mine after leaving it sit for about a year, but I very, very stupidly decided to do it on a Friday morning, on my work machine, on the same some code was due to be delivered. So I had a frantic Friday trying to fix my PC and get the work done!
