but its just "uefi" switch and can be controlled from OS too like other uefi functions
Source?
I tried to bypass it on my thinkpad using such information, but failed.
ability to flash bios from os
well not bios but uefi*
Afaik, if you use legacy mode, you don't have this functionality though
Right?
no idea on that one
but yeah... unles its physical switch then its not secure
but no company is gonna start the fad and take the bullet for introducing separate switch on side of monitor or next to usb ports
http://www.elecfreaks.com/store/images/SS%20Small%20models_A.jpg style slide switches exist even smaller than that
its just matter of getting shit done
Well early-mid 2000s HP laptops had such switches
I used to have a HP DV6 early 2000s and there was a switch for the cam, a switch for the mic and a switch for the wifi
Which was annoying because I kept accidentally turning things on and off with my arm while typing
and librem laptops have it too iirc
>>>>>librem
but they cost way too much for their metal
what a fucking joke
agree
Looked similar to that one
hahaha what is that wrist rest
flowers n shit
"""modern""" hp
not flowers, bubbles
modern? It's >10 years old
back then anyway
is what I'm referencing
hip and modern let's throw random shit in random places
that was the same machine that had an optional TV card with a remote in the expresscard bay
exactly
it came with a remote control
i really couldn't care about about a mic switch tbh
i do kinda want one tho
useful for skype etc calls
or whatever people use now
what do they use now instead of skype
whatsapp .... or some shit
i guess
discord for nerds
