Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

Instance-wide TOS: https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/
Lemmy code of conduct: https://join-lemmy.org/docs/code_of_conduct.html

2. Be civil

Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.

Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.

Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.

Bigotry will not be tolerated.

These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.

3. Post Linux-related content

Including Unix and BSD.

Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.

No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.

4. No recent reposts

Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

Please report posts and comments that break these rules!

Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community -- even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don't fork-bomb your computer.

You can run libreboot on newer devices but the Intel ME is needed to boot. Apparently the device shuts off after 15min without it.

With that being said it is possible to disable it after boot

Hmm, intel was sued by the literal NSA for the ME so they now need to include a setting for it.

You need to place a specific bit in the BIOS and then it is disabled. This should not cause any problems.

But for some reason, which may be a faulty USB flash install, Dasharo Coreboot on a Clevo NV41 loses the TPM when disabling the ME.

I have 2 nitrokeys so might just use that as secure element instead of my TPM.
