Justice in Australia is only available to rich white men. They even get a slap on the wrist’s for murdering their partners, no chance of proper justice for killing and Aboriginal woman.

Heads up folks: @thetnholler.bsky.social posted an AI-generated video this morning that was a deepfake of the captain of the U.S. women’s hockey team, and they seem to be promoting it as if it’s a real video. So watch out for that and don’t spread fakes.

upon doing even the tiniest reading i will answer my own question: no, that wouldn't be possible. cheri is working on the level of the instruction set, bios doesn't load an instruction set, it just loads drivers for devices like serial ports etc. dang
just fyi your linktree doesn't have this account on it.
