     @RustyCrab Don't forget System76 with their Poop! OS and "Yes, do as I say!"

     @mint I really don't know much about system76. I was looking into them next. They don't seem to have as much controversy surrounding them.

     @allison @RustyCrab They're simply doing what every other SBC vendor aside from Raspberry Pi Foundation does; just ordering a SoC from chinks with some barely working downstream kernel and let the community figure their shit out.

     @mint yes I don't think I'd use popos. I'd much rather just install fedora on it.

     @meso @RustyCrab Intel ME can at least be neutered. No one done the same work with AMD PSP that's built into every processor since first gen Ryzen.

     @RustyCrab @mint They use Intel CPUs while pretending they're solving a problem by "neutering" Intel ME when they can simply use AMD, they generally focus on their dogshit retardedly named OS, Pop!_OS and they don't have the vibes man yknow a used ThinkPad is better

     @mint @RustyCrab AMD PSP isn't as invasive thoughbeit, Intel ME even neutered is more invasive

     @RustyCrab @mint i dont have any ive just heard that it only does like security stuff like encryption to isolate it from the main compooter. Graphene schizos are retarded fed shills, but even then, if it was the same invasiveness would you rather Intel engineers design your CPU or AMD engineers? Intel's security is so backwards pajeetesque it's comical. AMD has had very few vulnerabilities over the years, most of their CPUs aren't discontinued due to security concerns like many Intel ones are (even 6th gen intel cores are unsupported and give you a warning when you boot lol).

     @not_benis @RustyCrab Linus is a retard but whoever keeps putting the blame on him in that scenario is equally retarded. There's no valid reason why the dependency tree could be this mangled in production.
