My first encounter with UEFI turned out to be quite expensive because UEFI was way too new and easy to brick. I guess things are better now, but toying around with this might still be a risk not worth taking as a consumer.

A bit. But compared to BIOS is still crap. The main advantage of UEFI over BIOS is that it offers RCE. /s


Do most UEFI allow for the "R" in RCE?
