    The fact that random companies like Crowdstrike have kernel drivers in millions of computers they they ship remotely is a security risk in and of itself. We’re lucky crowdstrike just shipped a bug that crashes computers, other companies could have shipped a lot worse.

            Why do you hate UEFI? Do you hate security?

                Sure, there are vulnerabilities. But UEFI offers features such as secure boot, which BIOS doesn’t. Also, its nice being able to boot from drives larger then 2tb.
