because you need the coreboot people to write firmware that can initialise the system, and that probably takes a lot of reverse engineering

I don’t know much about this, but I assume there’s little to no effort for corebooting on the amd side, I’ve only seen intel platforms with coreboot

so that means you can internally flash the bios chip from the os?

would be cool if there were coreboot builds for these platforms, this exploit seems pretty useful

prolly because op just reposted the link from the search engine post from yesterday

The banners are so good

pretty sure the sn570/550 used to be a pretty good deal

iirc they don’t sell it much anymore, maybe the sn580 is still a good deal?

tomshardware has power consumption+efficiency charts

I think the ultra fit uses some other piece of flash, I’d just recommend the plain Ultra or the Luxe. They pretty much have the same chip inside iirc

maybe communities should be able to flag that they’re the same community as one on another server, and if they mutually do so be combined into one metacommunity that people can search for

should be easy enough to avoid by just not buying computers with that processor

Intel ME / AMD PSP are similar things already on CPUs today, and because pretty much all x86 CPUs have it, it’s very hard to avoid it. They’re basically builtin Intel/AMD spyware and the only way you can get rid of them is by using something like Coreboot, which has very limited availability

fair point, maybe I’ll do that from now on

or just call them mcafee, twitter, facebook, etc

I WANT THIS I WANT THIS I WANT THISSS

THIS SEEMS SO COOL

THEY EVEN HAVE REPLACEMENT PARTS FOR SALE WTF

COREBOOT? R2R? GOOD IO? VERY GOOD WARRANTY??

WHY IS THIS NOT MORE POPULAR

They’re talking about playing video, not games
