Regarding the picture: I lelieve that's not how you turn 2280 ssd into 2242...

The best moment for me was when i understood how it works in general (I.e. ``) and stopped just memorizing stuff
((((((((((๐ฟ))))))))))
So, a browser frontend for bash... Nah, that sales pitch sucks (ram)
Except it's not: free ram is where disk cache lives, so the more free ram you have - the faster your system is (kinda)
The point with m$ keys was that you should delete them as they're used to sign stuff that loads literally anything given your maid is insistent enough.
[note: it was mentioned in the arch wiki that sometimes removing m$ keys bricks some (which exactly wasn't mentioned) devices]
Yeah, those mailing lists used to have some quite funny stuff; my favorite so far is smth along the lines of "whoever thought this was a good idea should be retroactively aborted".
But, on the other hand, damn it's toxic. Should've really sucked to work on the kernel back then.
Unless they find another way to escalate privileges... A bug, a random binary with suid, etc
If it can execute in ram (as far as I understand, they've been talking about fileless attacks, so... Possible?), it can just inject whatever
Addit: also, sucure boot on most systems, well, sucks, unless you remove m$ keys and flash yours, at least. The thing is, they signed shim and whatever was the alternative chainable bootloader (mako or smth?) effectively rendering the whole thing useless; also there was a grub binary distributed as part of some kaspersky's livecd-s with unlocked config, so, yet again, load whatever tf you want
Not necessarily, I guess. They're talking about a firmware upgrade of sorts, and, at least on the machines I own(ed), performing it didn't reset user settings (which disabling the logo is)
More like reflashing entirely or just changing the image. Alternatively, you can often disable showing the.logo somewhere in the settings.
What's known as resetting bios is more like removing the stuff saved in CMOS, AFAIK
To me split tunneling just sounds like "traffic matching certain rules is routed differently", and the rules depend on the configuration ๐คท
Like mobile protonvpn lets you include/exclude certain apps/ips; desktop wireguard has allowed ips, etc.
