I think the complaint rests more with the fact that a game patch is "breaking" people's computers. Most game patch mistakes break the games sure, but this kind of mistake seems few and far between. So, you have to expect when it happens for people to point and laugh, as I did when I read this. Just have to ignore that bit of sensationalism about the bricking. Typical "news" tactic for getting attention.
Also, Eve is so scandal-tastic right now, that any ills that befall them just add to the humor of their pains.
