Don't know, been rolling with Gentoo for some time now.

I wouldn't trust "out of the box" support anyway as that would imply trusting microsoft keys.

I've not read all of it, but if you're referring to the stuff at the beginning - none of those limitations apply to 5700xt.

If you mean something else - then, naturally, I would ask if it actually affects your media in the first place. It might, but I wouldn't expect that.

Podcini, got it on f-droid. Does what it says on the tin!

It is a good thing!

I mean if you're keeping the GPU - you can just set jellyfin to use VAAPI and utilise the gpu that way.

• https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/Hardware/VAAPI
• https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/VAAPI
• https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Hardware_video_acceleration#Configuring_VA-API

Do you know how that works? Is it something like Ubuntu where Canonical uses some sort of chain from Microsoft or do you have to embed the cert they provide into UEFI yourself?

🤣

Yes, failing to safeguard keys is fatal, but that applies to everything. But if fs you're storing keys on is behind luks and they're readable by root only - you're as safe enough. There're also LSMs like selinux that can increase the complexity of attack.

I don't know about nitrokey specifically, but TPM is an option (not good enough, imo) and a simple luks encrypted usb. You could get some convenience by storing the key to unlock it somewhere on the encrypted root.

In general - you cannot stop a targeted attack no matter what, but staying safe from all the automated ones is doable.

No it can't. You're still thinking about github and its built in "forking" mechanism.

There is no federated guthub because git itself is. Just clone the repo - you're part of the network already!

in case you want to tell me what I have is fine and I don't need an upgrade

What you have is fine and you don't need an upgrade 😁

But we're not looking for fine, are we? :)

I would keep the gpu and get as many cpu cores and ram as my budget allows. Once you cross into "stupid amount of RAM" territory you can start utilising tmpfs for transient things such as jellyfin transcode directory to:

• preserve those precious ssd writes (not really relevant anymore)
• make it more efficient (feels-good kind of relevant)
• running a filesystem in ram is really cool (most relevant, naturally :D)

It is a system one has to understand fully, i.e. not like ssh, where you can understand connecting to a remote host without bothering about key pairs, x11 forwading, etc.

I was lucky enough to have figured out Gentoo enough where plugging in secure boot was just extending my own system update script. Admittedly, I don't know how much other distros fight back.

In general - things that are colourful and/or have special effects.

Blue Planet, Top Gun Maverick, Fast and Furious saga (not the first few, 4k made no difference there) come to mind first atm.

Things that have acting and script itself as the main selling point generally are perfectly fine in 1080p. The Office and Slow Horses would be a good example of that, I suppose.

Personally, I get everything I want my son to watch in the highest quality I can - Shawshank Redemptiom and Shutter Island are the latest additions to my library that, I think, would absolutely fine in 1080p, but... 4K HDR it is :D

Yea, I guess that initial total lack of understanding and big headlines has left a long-lasting scar. Admittedly, secure boot could be used to lock a machine down if the ability to turn it off and/or manage the keys yourself was removed.

We'll get there, eventually :)

The Bootkitty sample ESET found is unable to override a defense, known as UEFI Secure Boot, that uses cryptographic signatures to ensure that each piece of software loaded during startup is trusted by a computer's manufacturer.

AKA not that big of a deal, yet. An article from another post about this also mentions GRUB explicitly as a requirement as well as PoC using self signed keys, which renders it sort of impossible to abuse.

UKI + your own keys + secure boot is still not broken.

This! I've done it many a time following 3.7 Full system backup. For some reason can't get table of contents to load on mobile and get a proper anchor link.

• Get a house with a garden (backyard)
• Start my own laptop/desktop line
• Obtain and maintain a naturally aspirated manual V12 Aston Martin

I wonder if this was the reason for f-droid suggesting removing firefox variants.

Not OP you've responded to, but the post really sets the tone for that.

Walrii!
