      The majority of linux articles have me checking the comments first to see if someone talks about ridiculous click bait crap, honestly saved me a lot of time.

            I suppose that’s the main problem, I didn’t check the article since the title reeks clickbaity enough. However I wouldn’t share an article if the the title obviously is a clickbait, I’m sure there are bunch of respectable sources about this development.

      To be fair, it is called a BSOD, which is a term widely associated with Windows.

    As people have said in some of the many, many other threads on this subject, if they really wanted to copy someone else’s style of full-screen error message they’d have done much better to go with “Guru Meditation”

          Who says that those traces and logs are no longer there?

          A helpful screen with information instead of a frozen screen or a wall of text that disappears faster than you can blink sounds better to me.

            Not to mention your average user is likely to read the error on screen whether they know a log exists at all. This info alone can help software support.

      More of it will display the LOG_EMERG message instead of just stopping without displaying anything.

      There are some headless servers I’d prefer to just reboot, but unless actual hardware is faulty I would not be too worried about it.

      It’s real. A bluescreen is literally just an error message displayed in fullscreen so it’s not as weird as it sounds
