In 2008 Roy T. Fielding expressed his frustration with people calling their HTTP-based interfaces for REST API's when in fact they aren't. Today in 2023 nothing has changed, people are still calling their HTTP-based interfaces a REST API, even though they are not.

In this tutorial we're gonna take a look at setting up full disk encryption on Arch Linux using GRUB for both a BIOS/MBR based setup and a UEFI based setup. While the choice to install in UEFI mode is encouraging, early vendor UEFI implementations carry more bugs than their BIOS/MBR counterparts. You are advised to do a search relating to your particular motherboard model before proceeding. Contrary to "modern" advice I haven't personally found any compelling reason to use UEFI. https://unixdige
