Any desktops/laptops/motherboards/SoCs that do not require closed-source firmware blobs out there?

Therefore, at least one of the following applies:
- You disagree with freedom of speech.
- You disagree with the right to privacy.
- You disagree with the right to cryptography as a natural transposition of the right to privacy and to secrecy of correspondance in the digital world.
- You disagree with the consumer's right to receive specifications to the hardware they buy.
- You don't like me because I'm an annoying faggot.

If it's the last, then too bad for you 'cause I'm just going to get more annoying over time.

Mocking someone whose only words in his vocabulary are ``mocking'', ``curtail'', ``civil rights'' and ``shotgun'' makes me disagree with freedom of speech?

Fuck off back to Reddit, repetitive shitstain.

Just buy a regular mobo and wrap it with aluminium foil, then they can't detect you.

Thank me later.

I told the Lemote guy there was nothing to wait for. I told him the very first time he mentioned that shit. He wouldn't listen to me and just went batshit insane. I'm sick of being always right.

bios is greek, not latin. Thus, its plural is "bioi".

So, does anyone know of a high-efficiency variable-input constant-5V-output 3A-max-output-current step-down converter? I want to make my own laptop.

Thanks. should I be using NiMH or Li-Ion batteries? I can't seem to find any easy-to-use Li-Ion 18650 cell controller boards. OTOH, NiMH cells hold less capacity.

lithium cells have less discharge cycles than new nimh cells (eg from sanyo or gp). but yeah, they're a lot lighter.
