CrowdStrike effectively bricked windows, Mac and Linux today.

Windows machines won’t boot, and Mac and Linux work is abandoned because all their users are on twitter making memes.

Incredible work.

        and the one I was replying to was asking about an OS being bricked, not about the bios or firmware.

        AND even then you can reflash the bios, its time consuming and costly but you can.

          then nothing can be bricked because on paper you can desolder the rom chip and put another one in place.

          If you want to be stupidly pedantic about shit, then nothing is anything.
