Dark Enlightenment: A Gonzo Chronicle

Dark Enlightenment: A Gonzo Chronicle (2025–2030)

Foreword by rUv

We stand at the brink of a new political age. In the shadows of Silicon Valley boardrooms and Washington backrooms, an unlikely alliance has taken shape. The Dark Enlightenment – an obscure neo-monarchist ideology born on internet forums – has crept from fringe blogs into the corridors of power. When I first heard whispers about tech CEOs and White House aides reading the same forbidden tracts, I knew something extraordinary was unfolding. This chronicle that follows is a firsthand journey into that unfolding drama, written in the heat of events by an intrepid observer who witnessed the transformation up close. It reads like a political thriller because, in many ways, it is one – except every bit of it is based on real people and real ideas shaping our world.

To set the stage, let me sketch the key players and ideas at work, so you can follow the wild narrative that ensues:

Instructions to Update the BIOS/UEFI for an HP Laptop on Linux

Instructions to Update the BIOS/UEFI for an HP Laptop on Linux

To update the BIOS/UEFI firmware requires HP-specific files in the EFI System Partition, also referred to as ESP.

On a Linux system, the ESP is typically mounted on /boot/efi or /efi. Whithin you should also find a EFI directory, e.g. /boot/efi/EFI or /efi/EFI. This article assumes that the ESP is mounted on /efi and that the /efi/EFI directory exists. You can replace that with the mount point your system uses.

The HP-specific files are located in /efi/EFI/HP or /efi/EFI/Hewlet-Packard. These files typically come preinstalled in HP Windows PCs. If you have these files you could skip Install HP-specific files.

Software for scientists

Some things takes much less time and stress once you know the right tool. Below, there is a community edited list of software for scientists.

Text editors

in General purpose text/code editors. It may be better to have a good editor for everything, than different ones for different languages, scripts, notes.
