This script only generates the CPUFriendDataProvider.kext and ssdt_data.dsl/.aml files - those still **require** Acidanthera's [CPUFriend](https://github.com/acidanthera/CPUFriend) kext to function.

This script also requires internet connectivity so that it can download supporting files to build `CPUFriendDataProvider.kext`, `ssdt_data.dsl`, and `ssdt_data.aml`. Without an active internet connection, only the `plist` file will be created.

## Low Frequency Mode (LFM)

LFM is the lowest frequency at which your CPU should operate when completely idle. This is the first configuration item prompted by CPUFriendFriend. It allows you the opportunity to optimize beyond what Apple configures as a default for each model, as it may not be the correct match for your CPU. To determine the LFM, look your CPU up on Intel's Ark website and convert the TDP-down frequency to Hex.
