Only if we keep using Intel and AMD hardware. Non-x86 architectures have
more potential.

At least until some whack jobs solve this problem by giving it like 1 million  
hours plus and then releasing his source code somewhere under a libre  
license... until then, it will not happen.


Even this might not be enough to fix intel's garbage.  I think the better  
option is just to ditch intel. Intel is dumb.


and if you think AMD is better, hahahahahahha... no. its worse!

That's my understanding, yes. Intel is a dead end.

I wish, but no. I think they might have been working on the X220 last
year, but they've since concluded that it's not feasible.

See here: https://libreboot.org/faq.html#intel

"Basically, all Intel hardware from year 2010 and beyond will never be
supported by libreboot. The libreboot project is actively ignoring all
modern Intel hardware at this point, and focusing on alternative
platforms."
