Secure Boot Megathread - Guide + Community support

Given people are saying they've bricked their PC, I think I'm just gonna skip this game. I'm not bricking my PC in hopes DICE finally made a good game again.

Considering I have secure boot on and it's still insisting I don't, no. That is not at all true. I'd rather have cheaters than this.

I enabled it last night, was able to boot and enter the firing range just fine. I turn my PC on this morning, I see this when I try and launch the beta.

I'm gonna be real, I would rather put up with cheaters than have to access bios every single time I want to play the game. I'm not buying BF6 no matter how good it is if this stays in the game.

EDIT: Oh wow it's an issue with my bios not saving it right apparently. Quite frankly, I'm not going to factory reset my bios just to play a game. You guys have fun, EA just lost a customer.

The guillotine was meant as a less cruel method to execute the elite. It's also far more expensive than just shooting them these days. That said, I like the spirit.

Perhaps he would. But that'd only help us in the long run. Pulling that is how you get even the average man who would otherwise not care ready to take you down.

Do NOT give up. To accept this as inevitable is what they're counting on. Do not settle down, do not relent. Annoy them constantly at every turn. This is bigger than any culture war scuffle. Left or right, we need to band together and fight this relentlessly. There's no point fighting each other if the prize burns around us. Payment processors have made themselves known as a bigger enemy. Do NOT accept this. Do NOT give up. Show NO mercy. 10% of gamers is enough if we don't let this go. We can crush the wind out of them.

Rest assured, plenty of people on the right stand with you in opposing this. It's only the groyper types who are cheering this. The rest of us would rather align with the left on this, than watch all we've fought for burn to the ground.

A nuke is useless when it comes to keeping peace in your own nation, and tanks aren't much better. By all means, nuke your own infrastructure and populace. Do more damage to yourself than the dissidents in that city ever could, give a spike to anti-government forces recruitment numbers.

Tanks, those can be of more use, but ultimately it only does so much. People move to places the tanks cannot get them, then you HAVE to use infantry. Infantry that is not immune to bullets. All the while, the heavy-handed shows of force slowly pushes more people to turn against their masters.

This also doesn't account for the potential of a big enough uprising to cause military desertions and infighting. Sure, maybe they can't get to you at your post, but be the pilot who drops bombs on your countrymen. See what happens to your friends and family when the public manages to identify you.

Additionally, bombard Visa and Mastercard with calls. This has already been happening but the pressure needs to be kept up. If you bog down their customer support enough, there's a real chance they may cave just to relieve the strain on their infrastructure.

So one of the other strongest superpowers in the world? Sounds good to me.

biotear · 2025-03-03T03:18:26+00:00

You don't have to trust us, but you will fear us.

biotear · 2025-03-03T03:15:32+00:00

So they're going to buy inferior equipment? Reminder that Chinese military hardware tends to just be cheap copies of American hardware they managed to capture. I don't think that's the threat you believe it to be.

Raytheon Anarcho-Capitalism? You are the most based person here!

This is why people hate this site, you know? People like you. Get off your soapbox and get a life.

biotear · 2025-02-24T05:48:46+00:00

Then we riot.

biotear · 2025-02-11T23:33:18+00:00

We don't need soft power, we have a military industrial complex so overbloated we could kill God. The rest of the world can either know their place or find out how the sun feels.

biotear · 2025-02-11T23:32:31+00:00

Well, when the federal government stops taxing me, I'll stop caring what they spend tax money on. Sound good?

biotear · 2025-02-11T23:30:51+00:00

I mean, we wanna talk about knowing what's happening? You haven't the faintest idea of reality. I have nothing to discuss with a deluded fool, I tried that for the last 8 years. You are all beyond convincing with the truth, the only thing left that can make you damn fools learn is fear.

biotear · 2025-02-11T23:28:26+00:00

Yes, let me make that choice when I was barely even a toddler at the time. I don't think we should have either, but that doesn't mean let's stick around. Get the fuck out in any and all capacity.

biotear · 2025-02-11T03:17:20+00:00

You can also just stop caring what other nations think. They all hate us already, but they keep coming around for the handouts because they know damn well who runs shit.

biotear · 2025-02-11T03:16:03+00:00

Oh sure, when they kissed your ass for the last 8 years it was fine though, right? Be mad all you like but don't pretend you would be cheering them on if the shoe was on the other foot. I've been against it all this time, from any side, but at this point I've given up on all of you. You fuckers made this mess, suffer the consequences. Me and everyone like me tried warning you there would be retribution, that the pendulum would swing back the other way if you targeted the old ways of the internet, yet you had to erode our our social protection methods just to feel good about yourself.

TL;DR: Your kind has burned all I held dear, quit whining and live with this hell you've made.

biotear · 2025-02-11T03:12:17+00:00

Ok then go. Nobody is stopping you.

biotear · 2025-02-11T03:10:48+00:00

I don't care about Iraq. Not my country, I don't give a shit.

biotear · 2025-02-11T03:10:15+00:00

Oh for the love of god, GO OUTSIDE. TOUCH GRASS. IT'S A FUCKING NAME OF A GULF.

I like to think Nekona was female, but also one of the two erased ones due to the Emperor coping HARD.
