Intel Management Engine General

Is it ok if I make this general a thing? I've finally thought about doing it, but is it advisable for me to try using ME_Cleaner on non-thinkpad laptops? Something like a E410MA Asus etc? Will it have a higher chance of getting bricked? And am I correct to infer that so long as I first save the BIOS with a SPI programmer or something I can unbrick the BIOS by reflashing it back?(USER WAS WARNED FOR THIS POST, This opening post is a Rule 4 violation, please elaborate in future, and don't make a general unless there are actually multiple threads made on the same topic)

>>19184 >using ME_Cleaner >unbrick the BIOS BIOS and Intel ME are not the same thing.

>>19184 Apparently Intel is packaging some of SiFive's CPU cores into an SoC for the replacement for the HiFive Unmatched. PRESENT DAY, PRESENT TIME. AHAHAHAHAHA!

>>19184 Brick? I don't think so, if it bricks just reflash the original BIOS and test with other arguments of ME_CLEANER

>>19306 how to interpret this? I didn't know intel had any association with SiFive or RISC. Just looked at the SiFive site, it looks like they stopped producing the HiFive Unmatched because they prefer to produce the intel co-production.
