A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Ok. Now I'm curious. How's that work?
Chromebooks have a special bios, it works with a chip on the motherboard to detect if chromeos is running or if some unverified os is running. If chromeos isn't running, it displays a warning message on boot. This behavior cannot be disabled.
Thanks! That is such pretty, jealous behavior.

Sometimes, being an editor sucks. I try to hold back, but when you end up with a different word than intended -- and it's funny -- I feel I have no choice but to point it out.
Of course! We do what we must, because we can!
I would expect no less!
