If there isn't enough outcry they will go forward and disable more signing keys related to things like torrent clients, VPN software, eject UBO from the edge store etc etc.

Atleast now I'm a bit more certain that VC is indeed safe.

I know we have cockpit but it never really clicked for me. Functionality wise too crashy and not so nicely intergrated, design wise it has the information density of a grandparent brick phone.

Having it in F-droid, vetted by their policies is kind of my benchmark for "software that is guaranteed to be not crapware."

That being said I'm rooting for the devs, having an alternative for tailscale+headscale would be nice, because as it stands it's kind of dependant on the goodwill of a for profit company (finite).

I can see like a 100 ways this can make computing worse for 99% people and like 1-2 scenarios where it might actually be useful.

Like if the politicians pushing for chat control/on device scanning of data come knocking again and actually go through (they can try infinitely) tech like this will really be "useful". Oops your device cannot produce a valid attestation, no internet for you.

Upon boot this has a 50/50 chance of triggering a chicken and egg problem where AnyConnect wants to connect to the complience server but can't because of Zscaler is not yet authenticated through PingID, but PingID cannot be reached because of the aforementioned complience check not succeeding. Or atleast that is my theory. Toggling the network adapter in the Windows control panel 1-2-3 times tends to solve it. Not 100% sure about my theory of what's going on, but my tickets about this are getting ignored so theorising is the best I can do. Atleast we as IT staff get local admin, so It's not all bad.

At my previous workplace (mid size SSC) the work machines themselves were less bloated and could do anything other than change UEFI settings, but certain servers we were assigned to maintain were monitored down to the keystroke level. The itsec shift gave me a call at around 3am to chat about my choice for script filenames (suckmydick.PS1) like 30 seconds after I created it.

Losing this when you load ELFs is kind of a bummer. Probably a dumb question but I wonder if it'd be possible to only swap in the parts of the binary that are needed at any given time.

I’m still a bit torn on whether I made the good call of getting 804 or the 304 wouldve been a enough for a significantly smaller footprint and -2 bays. Hard to tell without seeing them in person lol.

Are you satisfied with it? Any issues that came up since building?

How far away are we from hooking up a vision model to the display output of let’s say, Battlefield 6 and hooking in mouse+kb input from said vision model + an aimbot that perfectly replicates a top performing players mouse movements?

I’d say not very far away.

Much like how in online chess, no technical solution can attest that a move is really from a human brain and not a chess program running on his phone.

In current year you can't really buy new hardware without secure enclaves[0], be it a phone, a laptop or server. Best you can do is refuse to run software that requires it, but even that will become tough when goverments roll out mandatory software that depends on it.

[0]: unless you fancy buying nerd vanity hardware like a Talos POWER workstation with all the ups and downs that come with it.

It is possibly the biggest MITM operation in the history of computing. An unbelievable intelligence asset.
