the software being free doesn't matter when the hardware isn't

rms wouldn't be proud of this, he would call you out for using propietary, backdoored hardware and then laugh at you for using a Windows theme

Besides proprietary, which is a given, what backdoors exist in my hardware? If you have physical access to a device, you have full control over it. That's not a backdoor, that's just how things work.

RMS uses a T60 with Libreboot, he would be proud of me to be using similar hardware. He would indeed mock me for my theme, I bet.

Would be cash money. Make it all GPLv3, and most of the not-obsolete software work and function identically to how it did on Win95, but instead on the Linux kernel, and It'd be something I'd cry over.

>An architecture feature that can be used for nefarious purposes

It's a feature of x86 that can only be invoked manually. An inclusion of proprietary BIOS firmware could activate and make use of it, alongside an exploit of some type. I don't even know why I'm explaining this to a proprietard, though. You don't care. You're just baiting.

>>61762700
It doesn't require any interaction from your bios to start, that's only to provide rpc to it
Nothing needs to be done for the smm to execute whatever Jew code is in it

2 - Use alien to change it to Slackbuild.
3 - Install.
4 - Share
5 - Earn 40 nerdpoints
6 - ??

>>61762290
Doesn't malicious hardware require malicious software being available to run?
>>
>>61762815
What puts the Jew code into the smm?

An exploit?

Hardware modifications?

Software modifications?

That's like saying any processor instruction is bad because it can be used to take over my system. I will admit that a call like that even existing in an architecture is disappointing, and opens a hole for exploitation, but without said exploitation or manipulation it does nothing. Just like the Intel ME co-processor does nothing when the firmware that executes on it is removed.

>>61762985
>>61763025
It's still FOSS software. Just because the organization warrants the installation of proprietary software on proprietary hardware doesn't mean I have to do so.
>>
>>61763153
yes. and it's installed directly onto the cpu and/or chipset and runs independently of your OS, (U)EFI, BIOS, etc

They're not proprietary, the format and the code to work with it is open source.

Non-free packages: 10

However, there are 165 ambiguously licensed packages that vrms cannot certify.
