Debian, Ubuntu, Red Hat, Fedora, Suse, Arch, Gentoo, and Slackware all support secureboot. After that I got tired of looking up linux distributions, so there are likely more.

The "weird hostility" probably has more to do with your opinions being presented as "proper typography and design" followed by frankly incoherent arguments wherein you try to tell people their preferences are incorrectly

Marriage doesn't have to involve God, and securities fraud doesn't require "legally binding statements" to execute. Once you take away the hyperbole, there's not much left to examine here, except to ask what is fas

Most of them fail to meet one of the requirements in the "uniform interface" section; generally, in my experience, either "self-descriptive messages" or "HATEOAS".

Most of the privacy advocates I know have given up on persuading people outside their bubble and now merely want tools that don't spy on them. Proseletyzing doesn't really work, mostly because any attempt to have this conversation

Sure, but thousands of people now have one less obstacle to passing a background check for a job, etc. I agree with you about the scheduling, but this is more than a gesture, and will have a material impact on a lot of people, especially i

The fact that it feels different isn't really relevant. The recall process means Tesla has to track every VIN and keep records on which vehicle is repaired. Consider the hypothetical: if a person stores their Tesla unpowered in an u

It's too new to tell whether HDR is here to stay or a passing fad. I predict that it's here to stay but it'll probably take a decade or two before you see it on anything but high-end devices. The difference isn't part

It's a little weird to discount an article because it accurately reports a fact, using well-defined terms. It's getting exhausting listening to Tesla fans re-prosecute the definition of 'recall' any time someone uses th

This is honestly the first time I've ever heard anyone describe Tesla's "glue a giant iPad to a dashboard" approach to interface design as being elegant. I'm guessing the voice controls are the elegant part? Becau

I've been with T-Mobile for twenty years and in that time it has never released messaging content to account holders. Their cybersecurity record may be trash, but misinformation isn't really helpful. I'm not convinced that h
