M1 Macs have another hidden boot mode
And yet, when I had to return my M1 Macbook Pro 3 weeks back because of dead pixels, the dude at Best Buy told me that in order to wipe it, they had to <i>update the OS</i> because the version of the OS that came installed had a bug that would make the machine unbootable if they tried to do a factory reset from that version. So it had to download ~3gb to update the OS, just to wipe itself.<p>That&#x27;s just bonkers.
