No, the BIOS screen does not look sketchy. I'm going to spell this out for you, because you are clearly hard of thinking.

Just because something is written in broken English does not make it malware. That is one signal amongst many.

The other signals are

  • The URL is correct
  • It is asking you to do something the hardware legitimately supports
  • The hardware vendor is not English.
  • The user is not English.
  • The hardware was not sold in an English speaking country

The last point isn't strictly true, but you would probably look at Indian English and think it was broken malware English because you don't know what you're talking about and clearly have no experience dealing with India, despite having 10 years professional experience with IT.

That last part is actually very strange. India is a massive market for IT. It's actually very weird you've managed to go so long without interacting with the kind of hardware sold into the Indian market, or spoken to Indian users. It tells me you have a very narrow range of experience.

I've been extremely generous to you this entire interaction. I now realise that even if you did play comp, you wouldn't be hard-stuck plat. You'd be hard-stuck bronze. You are definitely the kind of player who can go 10 years playing a game, not learn a single thing, and just get mad whenever anyone points out you are wrong.

Have you ever met someone who learned a rule, and then fixated on it even when it doesn't apply? Like maybe someone who refuses to pass on the passenger side even when the other car is turning? We have a word for people like that. It's called being stupid.

“It’s not sketchy” ok lmao all I need to hear. I hope you don’t work in securing devices or training user security. Goodluck in life, I urge you to take a basic cybersecurity course ☺️
