So am I correct in understanding that this could be used to make a tool to unlock any encrypted disk that relies on the tpm whilst something like luks or indeed any solution that doesn't rely on the bios being secure would be fine.

Note I'm talking about a stolen laptop not an evil maid situation.

This breaks protection not provided by legacy bios you are basically always at the degree of insecurity provided by this exploit.

Neither photoshop this photoshop clone nor gimp are replacements for users who use can't use anything more complicated than paint.

Actually most people don't pay for or pirate Photoshop and most people need at least light photo editing

I'm presuming you could actually write an entire plot structure with individual agents writing the actions of individual characters with one narrator deciding what to include then consume this structure incrementally having it preprompt each scene with the plot structure for that scene and what happened.

We already have laws that could be used we choose not to use them because we our broken culture doesn't actually believe in punishing anyone but the poors unless they eat babies and sometimes not even then. You can't fix our broken culture with slightly different legal tools when we won't even use the obvious ones we have.

To be clear cars aren't the problem because its an inanimate object it doesn't drive itself off the lot. We can't have safe streets for the same reason we can't have most of what you mentioned because of drivers.

In the US EV are about 2% of cars and will be the majority around 2000 never due to lobbyists also EV actually create lots of air pollution via their tires even without emissions.

Also most parts of the country just isn't that walk-able outside urban core. I live in an area of 75k adjacent to a city of 700k.. In the smaller burg I decided to walk from POINT A -> POINT B 11 miles for fun to see if I could do it. It was only possible in the dead of night because of how many death traps had neither sidewalk nor even a walkable shoulder like if a car had come at the wrong time I would have had to jump in a ditch full of sticker bushes. There were I think on the order of 14 parts of the walk that were crazy dangerous in 11 miles.

In the larger one there are less but not NO insane spots more side walks but many places that were theoretically traversible but actively very dangerous due to design.

This causes a nationwide depression in the US which probably infects the world. Also criminal liability doesn't normally attach to unintended wrongs AND we don't normally make CEOs directly responsible for all possible wrongs committed by any one of potentially hundreds of thousands of employees because that would be ... nonsense.

For every complex problem there is a simple stupid and wrong solution.

If I hold a fork normally and it jumps out of my hand and stabs little Suzy in the eye it seems like the manufacturer ought to be liable. If I knew it might do that and I use it anyway probably we both are and a court probably gets to decide who bears how much of the fault. In no situation do we assign guilt to the fork even if it would be awfully convenient for everyone but Suzy if the fork which has no assets were the one liable.
