     Excellent, do tell us when you've done it.

     On a related note, and (see next)…

     I appreciate the heads up! I'll fix it site wide sometime soon!

     Hi Gabe, we are skimming over your brilliant work.

     One little tidbit you might like to know. It's https://libreboot.at and not #librebootOrg that accords to fully #FOSS boot firmware for ones device. The latter allows #proprietaryBlobs and we know they are bad.

     People are having to go to some pains to inform others about this, so don't feel bad that you didn't know.

     …You might already know about this, but https://h-node.org is a project by the @fsf that helps people to identify #computers that they can use.

     It can be pretty tricky to find #hardware that is #ethical but by running a basic command and checking the peripherals listed by their Vendor and Product IDs (that look like "[3fc2:001b]") one can often quickly identify if a device will be suited to them, as #FreedomSoftware Enjoyers.
