I'm genuinely more curious about the bent screens than the bsod

I'm guessing it's a (macro) LED display. Since they're placed and soldered by hand, doing it on a curve is possible.
shouldn't there at least be a Fail-Safe mode that looks cool
That needs a working kernel. Maybe Linux can be made to fallback to a cool frambuffer image if things aren't too broken, but with windows good luck.
Kernel panic - not syncing: No working init found.
Storage is the weakest point.
But if you use redundant PXE, hmm 🤔
Not really luck needed, Microsoft just needs to add it. The Windows 11 BSOD is much less ugly and more user friendly. I think this is the one that systemd-bsod intends to approximate eventually.
BSOD wrapped around a twisted pillar like that reminds me of System Shock for some reason.
System Shock 3 is finally coming out! It's just real life this time though.
