do you have an alternative solution in mind?

Because its required by law, and many customers of systemd need to support this?

well someone has to implement it somewhere on the stack. systemd seems like a good candidate ?

I’m so confused he adds a JSON field and corporate linux (who fund 95% of Linux development) need some sort of age auth mechanism for enterprise deployments. What do you guys want instead?

Like its not even enforceable, when the hardware attestation comes sure but before that why does anyone care (thats not going to stop you from changing a json field in systemd lmao)

It does but theirs a certain auth plugin/security setting they enable that only works with chrome

I think this just bases off Debian stable which makes it not too bad

real

Are any commonly used desktop distros debian based besides Ubuntu ? Ubuntu derivatives are not as they follow the latest upstream packages 1:1 usually iirc. Monjaro has its own dependency update schedule so it creates a new userspace dependency set to build against. If 10 distros follow the same thing we have 10 different timestamps of arch you have to build against.

Maybe my info is out of date, I just use arch & fedora.

thankfully so

Soon we will have forks of arch forks and each one will have a completely different set of dependencies depending on when the owners decide to freeze the package. Then someone will use it and wonder why theirs so many bugs

I use Linux for work and our company requires chrome to view Google Docs and such

I have a dream, that one day people will stop making arch derivatives that fragment the user space even more

death is preferable than using Windows.

take a guess

they call it ChromeOS, its actually the most used Distro :O

fuck thats a good idea

I believe we should replace their and there with just their. Ive never been confused by them in speech so why bother spelling them differently.

We like to think EU abandoning tech companies will create a new privacy FOSS ecosystem, when in reality they will likely just recreate their own Tech corps like China and US now that they have skin in the game

Any exec who makes people use that should be fired

Woah I remember installing this once, half my coworkers are old sun employees who worked on it kernel dev for solaris and hearing them talk about it is cool
