I learned a long time ago that I don't touch someone else's work computer. They have their own IT departments for that. Let them take the hit.

Haha no worries. Yeah luckily neither of us did anything intensive. I booted it up and did a small Windowa update and an undervolt but was getting annoyed by the slowness and stopped undervolting.

Had she played a game, they probably would have either died or shaved some life off of them

Nearly 40 years in IT and coding, I've seen some real boners... most happen when people are tired.

I've done some incredibly stupid stuff while tired... a few years ago I wiped out an entire server and 5 months of my work. Turns out my backups were all bad.

I did something similar (except it wasn't my fault)I discovered/executed a task that was bugged and took down the entire network at my old job. Woops

OK. No electronic apparently according to you no electronic has ever died to heat. You live your life risking your stuff, see if I care.
