@sawaba@infosec.exchange @JustinMac84@mastodon.social @pluralistic@mamot.fr @iFixit@mastodon.social That's what I'm hoping for as well.

@bryce @JustinMac84 @pluralistic @iFixit if it is that temporary, most folks can just hold out. We already regularly give advice to “not buy a new laptop right now, wait 6 months until the new model comes out” But if it lasts any longer than 6-12 months…
