Is this actually the reason it's called this? Like dead serious.

If it's fake, it's a decades old prank. I heard it used seriously pre-millennium.

It fits extremely well. Software changes regularly. Hardware never changes, while firmware is mostly fixed, but can change periodically.

then where else does firmware come from?

Well when a software and a hardware love each other very much...uh you see the SATA cable goes in the.. and then there's pin hole connectors of course.. auxiliary input... And then 2 days later the ups man brings you new firmware.

Okay bud? Alright goodnight.
