security vulnerabilities

oof.

Honestly if there were a hardware manufacturer that didn’t have the intel management engine style functionality or AMD’s equivalent of it, I would build my next laptop with that even if if the base clock and shared cache was rated for half that amount.

System76 make linux-based computers, and they specifically ship them with the IME disabled. I know that’s not exactly what you ask for, but it’s similar in nature

What’s the downside of having it disabled?

I actually considered a thelios or whatever they call their desktop systems are called but, the fact that their motherboards don’t support liquid cooling blocks was a turn off for me. Id get a laptop but they are so very expensive. If only I had the money, it would be my first choice however. Certainly now that Linux gaming has become just as good if not even a better experience than on wendoze.
