Lately I’ve been bending people’s names in cursive writing style out of coathanger wire.
The last name I made, I did not post. Why? I have no clue how to pronounce it…
Ogbuefi
meanwhile flashing the bios is still called flashing the bios
Nah. For me that was the “version” of bios in which I could finally use my mouse to select stuff

When describing the boot process, bios. When configuring some CPU or memory setting, bios. When talking about some specific boot menu config, uefi.
BIOS sounds good. It’s got that cold hard logic stamped steel ring to it.
“We’ve got the update the BIOS”. Okay. Everyone understands that.
The BIOS boots before the OS. Got it.
“Make sure to configure your UEFI”
“My what?”
You’re 100% correct.
But I’m gonna keep calling it BIOS anyway.
Uweee Eff Aye I met a girl online that literally called it Uni Extee Feee because it rhymed and sounded better to her and it drove the other techs she knew crazy.
Wifey that woman!
Would that I could… she was already taken.
U-E-F-I
Ué fí(o)
EUGH, that’s like a whole extra SYLLABLE
(but this is also how I say it)
Or just uefi.
üfi, got it.
systemctl reboot --firmware-setupThis will cause a Linux machine to reboot directly into the UEFI. I know it’s not groundbreaking but it can be really handy if you use fast-boot. At least your days of pecking the Delete key during POST will be over.
Windows does this too, though I’ve forgotten the method.
