    What the fuck does it matter if the system breaks, you can always reinstall. Don’t be a wuss.

  2. Oddly enough I was just having a conversation with my co-worker about a Linux upgrade I did yesterday that broke my network. I lost my interface bridge, so none of my VMs would start, my MAC address is no longer the same so DHCP was broken, I couldn’t use VBAN anymore because the IP changed, and now I’ve got 4 new bridge interfaces from who knows where. All from a kernel upgrade `apt update ` and `apt upgrade`, there just happened to be a new kernel available.)

    I spent a few hours trying to get everything back to normal, it’s still in a somewhat broken state but it’s getting there and it’ll be fixed when I’m physically in front of the machine again. I love Linux, I use it at home as well as at work, but holy fuck when something stops working good luck…

    Don’t need a bootloader if you’ve already booted.

    I mean, you can uninstall Window’s boot loader too through Windows with Window’s tools. You can also delete system32 if you use //?/

    Bullshit. I uninstalled Edge and it’s fine.

    Just make sure and reinstall a new one before you reboot and you will be fine. What could go wrong?
