A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

No bios update, but you most likely received both microcode updates (which is what will fix/mitigate the Intel issue, the bios is only to ensure everybody gets the microcode update) and firmware updates (from
linux-firmware
)Of course non-mainlined (i.e. not in the linux kernel) firmware is a bit more iffy, luckily it's getting slowly better with OEMs using
fwupd
for those scenarios
