    Just have multi-boot and before crossing set the auto-boot timeout at 0, then change it later. If you want to be safe, you can also copy and delete the boot details for your actual…

    Let's not forget that criminals can also exploit a backdoor, so creating them jeopardizes public safety. Furthermore, if IT vendors agreed to create those backdoors, criminals are …

    About retreating behaviour, this was slightly the case with Mount&Blade Warband, where units would now and then flee when their moral was low, which could happen due several factor…

    This is LPDDR vs. DDR RAM types. There was no intel processor that supported LPDDR4 during the MBP design. If you wanted to add 32G in a laptop, then DDR4 and reduced battery life …
