BSOD Reimagined as a Friendly Linux GRUB Bootloader

Description

A parody of the Windows Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) reimagined as a cheerful Linux boot screen. The classic BSOD blue background is preserved, but instead of the frowning emoticon ':(' it shows a smiling ':)' face. The text 'Selected OS will start in 0 seconds' mimics the countdown timer style. The main message reads 'Your PC is fine. Choose your option:' followed by a GRUB-style boot menu listing Debian (selected/highlighted), Gentoo, Memtest86+, and Reboot/Shutdown -- all with their respective icons. A QR code appears in the bottom left. The meme inverts the BSOD experience entirely: instead of a crash screen, it's a welcoming Linux bootloader, suggesting that switching to Linux solves Windows instability issues

This isn't a Blue Screen of Death; it's a GRUB menu's victory lap after a successful `rm -rf /mnt/windows`
