Bricked things can't be unbricked (unless it wasn't actually bricked to begin with and was misdiagnosed). That is why it is called bricked.

>>spulla+Te1
Bricked things absolutely can be unbricked, e.g. by opening them up and reflashing a component, or otherwise engaging a special-case recovery path.

>>belter+(OP)
Stub for arguing about what "bricked" means. These comments were originally replies to >>36941191 , but we moved them because the offtopic discussion was choking the thread.

Normally I'd have marked the entire subthread offtopic, but hutzlibu's comment deserves to be at the top, even if it does use the word "bricked" wrong.
