how do I reboot my computer?
Throw a brick at it.
that's gonna brick it. it's right there in its name.
people on the internet and their advice sometimes, ffs.
Nah, you just gotta do it correctly, yeah you might brick a few computers, TVs, cars or a couple electrical mains boxes, but once you master the technique you'll be able to restart anything.
We call that percussive maintenance.. the brick is optional.
That's just turning it off with Style✨
