The above user's incredulous response probably warranted some downvote or two, but ksk is correct in the spirit of his response. What portion of users ever go to the control panel, let alone desire to view basic information about their computer?
That's a dark pattern itself, hiding important settings in places where users can't see it.
- ksk 13y agoWell, there was nothing incredulous about my response. I found the article devoid of any substance. Its one of those articles that shows up on HN just to spark a few circle-jerks.
- pgeorgi 13y agoAnd what user that never goes to the control panel is able to enable Secure Boot (firmware menu?!?), and to debug issues like mentioned in the article (VGA card with an option ROM that comes without Microsoft signature) if they follow Microsoft's advice? And the douchey part is that Microsoft doesn't even acknowledge issues such as the unsigned option ROM thing.
