I use heads firmware, which seals an otp key in the tpm to let you verify the integrity of the firmware, which then uses your gpg pubkey written into the firmware to verify the integrity of the boot partition.
An open, self-controlled equivalent to secure boot that relies on the tpm and your own gpg key, instead of on vendor secure boot signing keys. Very cool project!

100MWh from that one little silo, that's incredible.

I tried to buy a drink on a united flight once, and the poor guy had to tell me the only way I could pay for it was to download the united airlines app via the in-flight wifi and enter my card details there. Which I couldn't do, so fuck me I guess.

The "frontpage" is whatever you make it - don't join low-quality meme and news communities if you don't like their content.

Myst and Riven were built on HyperCard, also!

That makes sense, thanks for the new perspective.

Donald Trump is absolutely not worried about people dressed in chicken suits handing out tacos. This is "Let's Go Brandon"-level feckless facebook-boomer euphemism, it's embarrassing, and I'm fucking sick of it.

You know what Donald Trump is actually worried about? Protests, strikes, civil unrest, molotov cocktails, actual substantive action. Stop pretending this taco chicken bullshit is that.

Incredible features. I love this project so much.

I use Vanadium/Trivalent (GrapheneOS fork of mobile Chromium and its desktop equivalent) for general internet use on a general-use system, and Firefox inside of specific qubes for specific purposes otherwise.

On a general-use system, the additional security of Vanadium and Trivalent give me a bit of peace of mind when using the same browser for admin work, sensitive stuff like banking, and general browsing.

With the Qubes model, everything is segmented and isolated anyway, so I can use Firefox, which despite its flaws has been my favorite since the Netscape days.

The dystopian part is being required by law to use a specific form of authentication tied to your real identity by the government in order to access the internet.
