"reboot and try again.. and if it crashes again — don't do that thing." there might have been a time when someone would say, “wow, that thing is a piece of crap” — but those times are long gone.

If you tell anyone about this, Steve Jobs will come to your house and over-feed your goldfish." User says, "What does 'An unknown error has occurred' mean?" I say, "Shhhhhhh. Go back to sleep, you're having a bad dream."
