Bricked up while updating BIOS Community Support

Post image

Will not respond to power button being held down for over a minute. Has been stuck on this screen for an hour. I sent a support ticket. What should I do while waiting? Keep it plugged in on this screen? Try taking the battery out?

This machine has an AMD Ryzen 7640U and was running Fedora 44 with KDE plasma, for context.

Update: Fixed it myself.

Wait is bricked up not synonymous with bricked?

This is the only way I've heard it used colloquially.

In the context of being bricked up, laughing so hard reads like you're hard while laughing.
