I remember when bricking something meant it was totally unrecoverable. Now it means "temporarily not working but will automatically heal".

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.

I got into an argument with a fellow Tesla owner on a forum who was screaming their car was bricked after their 12V battery died. All they had to do was replace the battery. It wasn't bricked. I sure received a lot of vitriol for saying it wasn't bricked. If you can simply perform a maintenance task, it's not bricked.
