The Gulley Flats Boys

The Gulley Flats Boys is a double-disc album from British musician Francis Dunnery, released in 2005. It is very stripped down, revolving around Dunnery's acoustic guitar playing and piano, courtesy of David Sancious, and featuring minimal percussion. It features two re-recordings of older songs in Good Life and Heartache Reborn - the latter being almost entirely re-worked. Lyrically, the album deals with the reaching of "the middle of life", and Francis has stated that it deals with a mid-life crisis of sorts.[1] The title of the album is a reference to the council estate in Cumbria, North-west England where Francis grew up alongside the friends pictured on the album cover.

gollark: There is also the "secondary processor exemption" thing, which caused the Librem people to waste a lot of time on having a spare processor on their SoC load a blob into the SoC memory controller from some not-user-accessible flash rather than just using the main CPU cores. This does not improve security because you still have the blob running with, you know, full control of RAM, yet RYF certification requires solutions like this.
gollark: It would be freer™, in my opinion, to have all the firmware distributed sanely via a package manager, and for the firmware to be controllable by users, than to have it entirely hidden away.
gollark: So you can have proprietary firmware for an Ethernet controller or bee apifier or whatever, but it's only okay if you deliberately stop the user from being able to read/write it.
gollark: No, it's how they're okay with things having proprietary firmware *but only if the user cannot interact with it*.
