[quote author=pauloz link=topic=5355.msg40706#msg40706 date=1525522288]Still disappointed about LL not having UEFI support  .

That's not entirely true. We even have a dedicated thread that has links to LL UEFI builds, and the community supports others in that thread.

It would be more accurate to say we don't release UEFI builds as people would expect them. There is at the very least, an effort to provide something you can work with.


If I told you in the 90's I'm going to sell you a device that tracks your movements, can listen and record you wherever you go, most people would have rejected that offer, right? Fast forward to today, where there are literally millions of people using this device. You may have heard of it, it's called a mobile phone. My point is, just because a technology is 'convenient' doesn't mean you should accept it. Cheers

I only have a basic idea on how UEFI work but, could a universal "wrapper" be developepd? There is some hybrids for 32bits UEFI installs out there, maybe a legacy "loader". Anyways...



As for the Big Brother stuff, I'm not paranoid either but still put a sticker (a cool one on my cell/laptop cams. Some laugh but when when informed that there is no sure way to know if it's on or off even if the camera light is off since using independant relays... eyes widen with a clear but silent "Oh crap!". Also, why do a lot of phone apps ask for location,camera,phone information persmissions to play Cute Puppies 3. Needing internet for satellite or local apps, strange. Like sending your voice/fingerprint to a server for "better recognition" when my 80's computer could do that locally, etc. Only makes you wonder...
