My 2019 MacBook Pro is on iOS 26.5 (25F71).

Is it just me, or is iOS starting to get squirrely? Some recent instances I note as odd:

- changing the screen wallpaper
- weirdness in how the OS/apps handle photos

When I reboot, the OS now reconnects 6 times (six separate instances) to the network drive of the previous wallpaper image. The current one is on a local drive, hoping to get rid of this anomaly?

I've read about security issues regarding modern Intel and AMD processors' management controllers for years; it's nice to see a mainstream article about the issue.

At least one manufacturer noticed this some years back.

@oxidecomputer saw it as a risk, and wrote their own minimalist boot and a service processor that replaces the "let's throw a random program into ring 3" approach of Intel and AMD.

They blogged about it at https://oxide.computer/blog/hubris-and-humility
