As its name suggests, LogoFAIL involves logos, specifically those of the hardware seller that are displayed on the device screen early in the boot process, while the UEFI is still running. Image parsers in UEFIs from all three major IBVs are riddled with roughly a dozen critical vulnerabilities that have gone unnoticed until now. By replacing the legitimate logo images with identical-looking ones that have been specially crafted to exploit these bugs, LogoFAIL makes it possible to execute malicious code at the most sensitive stage of the boot process, which is known as DXE, short for Driver Execution Environment.

So, does disabling the boot logo prevent the attack, or would it only make the attack obvious?

Whales and time travel to the present day. Which is 1986, of course.

I was 3 years old and my parents took me to see it at a drive in theater. Fell asleep before the end.

You're welcome. :)

We've now reached the name-calling phase. Classic.

This sort of empty, emotionally charged BS is exactly what I'm talking about. It's a weak and childish form of rhetoric, and if that's the best you've got then perhaps you should ask yourself why that is.

The sheer number of people, organizations, and national institutions that fell over each other in scrambling to support Israel/condemn Hammas set off my bullshit detector.

I'm still not taking sides, but the pro-Israel blitzkrieg is so over the top that I don't accept it at face value. Someone's trying to sell me something.
