This isn’t really a Windows vs Linux issue as far as I’m aware. It was a bad driver update made by a third party. I don’t see why Linux couldn’t suffer from the same kind of issue.

We should dunk on Windows for Windows specific flaws. Like how Windows won’t let me reinstall a corrupted Windows Store library file because admins can’t be trusted to manage Microsoft components on their own machine.
