If a game has the same lines of code across all players, then why do some bugs only affect certain players?

I was playing a game earlier when a friend was experiencing a bug. Wouldn’t it make sense for me to be experiencing the same bug since were playing the same game that’s coded with the same lines of code?

Games are played on millions of computers with many different combinations of hardware. Any sort of other processes may also be running on that hardware and certain bugs only occur under very specific circumstances. What this basically means is that even though the game is essentially the same for everyone the reality is that the conditions under which it’s running may be wildly different.
