Last year I built a new computer and made sure that I'd not use a single piece of hardware that will require some shit software from the manufacturer.

I'm really happy with my absolutely no RGB, AIO controlled with a pump header boring PC.

This is the way...

I run linux distros and I have to configure my MSI motherboard from the BIOS, or I would have to get my hands on some MSI specific UEFI variable specifications (which you can download as a utf8 text file with a noscript/basic HTML browser, or a whatwg cartel browser but with javascript blocked, thanks).

A lot of that is natively well supported on Linux now, especially for slightly older MSI laptops. I’d recommend trying out Fedora Kinoite if you’re used to Windows.

If it's natively supported on linux, an LLM should be able to write a simple Windows program to control it based on the code.

Nowadays, you can let AI Agent analyze the binary file and figure out how to control hardware, then, let AI Agent wrote a code for it.
