This confirms that Linux is much more powerful than Windows. In Windows, it takes 20 lines of code to brick your system, Linux can do it in one command.
Kinda a mix of everything. It's worth noting that, according to ex-kernel hacker Matthew Garrett, you can achieve the same bricking using a 20 line program in Windows. So it's not a Linux (or systemd! Seriously, don't we have enough hate against systemd without TFS adding fuel to the fire?) issue, it's more a design fault.
Clearly UEFI variables are expected to be written to by suitably privileged programs under consumer operating systems, otherwise Windows and Linux wouldn't expose them the way they're exposed. Yet clearly variables are being exposed like this that shouldn't be written to under normal circumstances.
I though this was funny

Herpa Stallman derp. Honestly fuck off with that. OSS isn't some magic bullet. Car companies need to stay competitive or else what is the point. The Koreans will just undercut them with their far cheaper labour costs.
The latest is the banning of Sex Robots because, as Robot anthropologist and ethicist Kathleen Richardson, from De Montfort University in the UK, warns "these robots will encourage the sexual objectification of women and children."

Why does it matter where I was? I had nothing to do with it.
If it was black paint it should get an Oscar nomination.
This is why vaccines are bad.
Never did like Nest. I use Ecobee 3 thermostats and love them.
That's it.
I would never have known I had Restless Legs Syndrome or was at acute risk of getting shingles if it hadn't been for the ads.
Why is it so big and ugly?

All the spying paid off when they prevented a jet from being blown up over Egypt by ISIS.
Go away please
OMG!!
And I wonder how much the taxpayer paid for this "Vectran" rope and saftey systems. Will we get a refund?

Need to know..
BBC is my main news source - I do not like the USA style of journalism.
Live on a remote island... complain about internet speeds. Sorry Australia, but this goes with the territory.

Woosh
It will be a very cold day in HELL before I buy any of your crap products.
OMG! Apple is scared now!
Not invented here syndrome? The rest of the civilized world has been using ICD10 for a while now.
If their ECU code had been Open Source and so reviewed by millions this would not have happened.

Shouldn't the female programmer get male cheerleaders, or someone who arouses her so that she's more inspired to go to work every day?
