Strap explosives to their chests and send them to thier competitors?

There’s a lot of crossover here. It encompasses the “you rent everything and own nothing” aspect of today’s society. It’s multi-billion corporations against consumers.

A win here will be something that will expose chinks in the armour for a lot of other issues. I know it might seem unimportant because it’s games, but that’s its beauty. It’s a backdoor into so many other fights.

My thoughts are “Why do they need one?”. It’s not like UEFI stops you doing anything.

UBIOS’s unique features over UEFI include increased support for chiplets and other heterogeneous computing use-cases, such as multi-CPU motherboards with mismatching CPUs, something UEFI struggles with or does not support. It will also better support non-x86 CPU architectures such as ARM, RISC-V, and LoongArch, the first major Chinese operating system.

I would say this is about increasing the level of control of the platform, not about technological issues.

Edit: For example, here’s the RISC-V UEFI specification.

Government ministers are bound by collective responsibility and so if Milliband states something definitively it is taken as government policy. All other members of government would be expected to say the same thing.

So the weasel words here are because it’s not agreed government policy that they should leave X. I expect they haven’t discussed it. If he’s more definitive it would potentially expose a split in opinion within the government (Oh the horror!).

Understand the code words. His opinion is that they should leave. This is his way of making it a topic for discussion in the government.

Also China require local representatives in subsidiaries management in China, possibly even Chinese leadership. The Dutch are only playing from the same rulebook.
