gollark: Consider my laptop: as well as the actual "computer" composed of the main CPU cores and RAM and whatever, the main CPU die also contains at least four other independent computers: the Intel Management Engine, the GuC and HuC on the GPU, and I think a processor which runs power management.
gollark: No, the BIOS is just the first stage of the boot process.
gollark: All recent computers have extra computers inside them, which have their own probably-basically-unaudited firmware with access to some critical system component or other.
gollark: Basically, computers don't work and you should run away from them.
gollark: Android WiFi chipsets have all kinds of fun bugs like that which sometimes allow remote code execution and which will probably just never be patched on lots of phones.
