Are there any hardware manufacturers that aren't completely shit at providing firmware updates? My motherboard does still get updates but they can take a while to arrive even when there's a known exploit for my CPU which requires a firmware update to fix (made even worse by the fact that AMD are awful at providing fixes in the first place)

I'd be in favour of this. I came over from lemm.ee, I'm pretty sure they were federated with lemmygrad and TBH I hardly ever saw any posts or comments from them. They seem to keep most of their insane views to their own communities (although that may just be because so many other instances have blocked them)

Personally I think defederation is mostly pointless now that users can block instances themselves, and one of the main reason I picked this instance is that not many other instances are defederated. I'd rather defederation was only used when absolutely necessary. To me the whole point of Lemmy is that it shouldn't matter where anyone created their account.

That's bad! Was that before or after they announced there were issues?

Back when the concept of a cat eating a cheeseburger was the pinnacle of comedy?

That makes sense. Would a signed initramfs be possible though? Since it's usually rebuilt after most system updates?

If someone has physical access then surely they can change the initramfs without having to use the debug shell?

The only reason Pluto is no longer a planet is because we discovered there were loads more planets and couldn't be bothered to acknowledge their existence!

I'm pretty much already part of your religion I just disagree with you on one very minor detail. We are now mortal enemies.
