The sheer number of nested/chained operating system-ish layers on a modern computer between your operating system and the actual metal is just stupid. UEFI is an operating system. Limine is a bootloader that is more capable than a lot of small operating systems. You've got the IME. The AML VM because God is dead. SMM. Maybe a hypervisor, and then your OS. PCI, ACPI, AML, DT, UEFI, PEI, DXE...statements dreamed up by the utterly deranged. #programming #computerArchitecture
