Fair enough. But the fact I can’t even use it to connect to my homelab proxmox cluster kinda has to be a dealbreaker for me. Even a trial period to allow me to try and experience everything would be sufficient in my opinion. On the fuzzy thing, I’m using gnome desktop, with latest gnome shell in debian sid, on an Nvidia 20280 using the proprietary driver (latest in debian experimental). It’s connected to three 2k/1440p monitors running at 144/60/60hz. If that helps at all. The tooltips are most notably fuzzy. It looks like it’s being antialiased multiple times or something?
I’ll bet the Intel management engine is just as “vulnerable”. The only context this is likely a concern is large scale corpo deployments, without verified supply chains to the source. Love how the security researcher handwaves that there’s “plenty of existing exploits” that can be used to install the exploit into the SMM, without giving any suggestions of how.
