      i totally understand if they named it bsod just for the meme, it’s funny also they could make an option to change de color :b

          Back about two decades when I was using Windows and it was till easily customisable, I changed the bsod colour to red for funsies. Windows being Windows crashed and went to my red screen of death - my ex’s cousin saw it and thought it was something really really bad, “Wow, a red screen, never seen that before. Must be even worse than blue”. No mate, I just customise the shit out of anything I touch 😅

        Correct me if I’m wrong but isn’t this basically just better error reporting? It’s not like it’s gonna crash more often, it will just actually show log info if something catastrophic happens.

          No, there is a random crash every six hours now to increase familiarity.

            Unfortunately this only affects boot messages, not normal system operation, for that you still get core dumps and kernel panics / oops

          A BSOD that gave you a clue about why it happened would be a welcome change.

            that’s the goal, they also gonna implement the QR code, but not like the crappy of QR code on windows(that send you to a suppirt page with a dozen of possible sulution, where nothing work), the qr code is going translate to the kernel panic message, i liked, i can scan the qr code and search the error on my cell
