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.
