It's not about the google vibes, it's that this thing could be standardized and used by several programs and websites.

here's an example. with google's integrity system, most phones can not go through attestation. an exception is phones that can run GrapheneOS. but for apps that require attestation, the developers need to change their app so that it accepts valid attestations of systems that use the GrapheneOS key. such apps can decide to keep only accepting google approved systems.

so far it looks like this will work similarly enough that software you run will be able to be picky about what distribution you use.

    if unprivileged software can ask the integrity verifier component which private key is used as the integrity root, or what rules does the verifier keep, then it can be used by commercial software (and web browsers) to decide whether they allow running themselves on your computer (or whether you are allowed to watch netflix, or log in to the bank's or the government's website)

    an arch user doesn't know that!!

    so, that further information is the kernel's version number. it helps to keep some older versions. but you didn't set it up to include the version in the filename.

    you can place this in /etc/fstab to make it automatic. look for the line where sda9 is defined. don't bother with lines that start with #. I think the 2nd to the last column configures this, but look it up in "man fstab" command and it will tell you what to write there

    no idea why isn't that the default on your system. is this the rootfs, or another partition?

    discord can be used without an account - until they kick you out demanding your phone number.

    on matrix too you can have a guest user that works somewhat similarly, but most rooms don't have that enabled I think. I am not too surprised about that, no idea how could that be effectively moderated. it also needs client support but element web supports it

    reasonably speaking, there are no smartglasses today that are capable of doing that locally, and even if there would, that does not guarantee in any way that it keeps the data locally. youre a walking surveillance camera, and like it or not, if people don't like that, that's their decision.

    I'm surprised teslas and other such surveillance trucks are not vandalized more.
