I have an error happening over and over for months.

error

It cannot be reported, and it's likely due to the hardware being quite cheap. However, I've never encountered any problem in actual use of the computer.
I don't see anywhere a "silence" option, can it be added?
Or what should one do in this situation?

This is the Machine Check Exception.

In /etc/libreport//events.d/koops_event.conf there is:

# Automatic/simple GUI-based kernel oopses reporting will do this:
EVENT=report-gui type=Kerneloops mce!=non-fatal                                                                          
        report-gtk -- "$DUMP_DIR"

EVENT=report-cli type=Kerneloops
        report-cli -- "$DUMP_DIR"

I guess that if you tune this condition, you can ignore the MCE (machine check exceptions). Though, I do not how, from top of my head. This deserves better documentation.
