Hilarious! Even #intel rejects INTEL! https://www.cnx-software.com/2022/01/05/intel-mobileye-eyeq-ultra-risc-v-processor-targets-level-4-autonomous-driving/

"P-series — 6x 45W... H-series — 8x 45W" OMG 45 watts. What a pile of #intel junk! https://linuxgizmos.com/intel-launches-12th-gen-alder-lake-mobile-h-p-and-u-series/ Intel is dying, the engineers are fleeing http://techrights.org/wiki/Intel_leaks
The price of energy keeps going higher and higher and #intel is still living in the past. They say old PCs aren't worth running because they take a lot of power (never mind how much POWER it takes to MAKE new ones!) http://techrights.org/2022/01/02/article-on-digital-rights-in-2021-part-9/
Standard #intel chips "TDP – 35W to 65W"... think of all the things you could run on 65 watts. Not some lousy tiny die with back doors in it.
Jean-Luc Aufranc (CNXSoft) should know #intel is NOT a friend of #linux and a bunch of new back-doored chips is NOT "Linux" news. See leaks on what a catastrophe Intel became: http://techrights.org/wiki/Intel_leaks
Intel plans to include a special change with Linux Kernel 5.17 that will help updating the system firmware without rebooting the system
Last year, several security vulnerabilities were discovered, making it difficult for system administrators to patch the systems without downtime quickly. What if some improvements can be made to update some critical components for security/performance improvements without rebooting a system?
Intel aims to achieve that with its new PFRUT (Platform Firmware Runtime Update and Telemetry) driver. Note that this is only possible with a Linux system and an Intel chip on board.
As I recall SUSE Linux (kGraft) and Ubuntu (Livepatch) have had similar patching of the kernel, and although they were not claiming 100% rebooting never required, they did not appear to be tied to a particular CPU architecture, like Intel is currently doing. Either ways, it looks like this functionality is improving across the board, and as it is all open source, it can be improved upon by others too. The Intel advantage though is that this goes into the general kernel, so non SUSE and Ubuntu users with Intel, all stand to gain from it.

Frustrating to see how 'Linux' sites, throughout the day today, treat #intel news/noise (pure hardware, with #nsa back doors even!) like it's "Linux" news... those sites should know better. Intel does not even like Linux (it's not good for making lots of sales) http://techrights.org/wiki/Intel_leaks
Stop promoting this idea that #intel likes #linux https://news.itsfoss.com/intel-linux-kernel/ look what happens INSIDE Intel. It's not pretty: http://techrights.org/wiki/Intel_leaks
#intel : TRUST US! We cannot even HOST our OWN code!! We're not retarded, we just trust the "good folks" from #mirosoft ... http://techrights.org/wiki/Intel_leaks
By now, #intel seems to have outsourced everything (almost) to #microsoft #ProprietarySoftware https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=IGC-1.0.9933 look why that happened in #IntelLeaks http://techrights.org/wiki/Intel_leaks
Nobody in the media covered these #intel leaks. So-called 'news'... whose? http://techrights.org/wiki/Intel_leaks

When #linuxfoundation BUYS media coverage (fluff/puff pieces) it's not for #linux but for its sponsors, e.g. #microsoft and #intel so, IOW, it's like a money-laundering operation for media #bribery
LOL. #intel has outsourced #SoundOpenFirmware to #microsoft #proprietarySoftware ... so much for "Open". Intel is going down the drain. http://techrights.org/wiki/Intel_leaks
