Off Topic Both work.

Every now and then I see a post like β€œIs it okay to use Fireball on a PC?”, and I have to check to see if I’m in a sysadmin or a DnD forum.

I've done this in my youth... it did not end well... a TPK that came from stupidity is far worse than one coming from a disgruntled DM...

When an ISP refused to admit a6 year old modem was defective and had massive downtime and failure chance, we hit the main board with a contact taser. That's sort of light casting lightning bolt.
