It seems it requires you don’t mount the EFI system partition over /boot so it’s included in snapshots, and systemd-boot doesn’t support booting from arbitrary partitions

How do you roll back in the grub menu? Is that a feature of grub?

When I update the kernel it replaces both options in systemd-boot so rolling back snapper is a scary endeavor due to kernel - system mismatchs

What made you think I was proposing a scheme compliant with the bill? I repeatedly said that this would be to prevent such a bill from passing. And explained my reasoning why it would do so.

To make it doubly clear: I don’t support what they’re trying to do. I just think it could do us good to ourselves address any legitimate concerns they use as excuses to implement surveillance so it’s harder to use them as excuses.

As far as I know self regulation by media industries implementing age labels prevented these kinds of “think of the children” bills before. No idea where you got the corporations having private information from, the entire idea is that it would be open source so we can know that it’s not doing anything shady.

Politicians pushing for these bills don’t care about the excuse they present, but the reason they can repeatedly use the same excuse is because it is a legitimate concern for people. I don’t think digging our heels in to refuse a solution even if it were to align with our stated principle of preserving privacy helps us in the public consciousness.

even worse invasions of privacy

“worse” isn’t accurate as the entire point is that it would be designed to be non-invasive (for people who don’t have csam anyways). Of course they’ll keep trying to invade our privacy but with the example of a solution that doesn’t use mass surveillance for something they tried to push surveillance for, they’ll have less leg to stand on.

Can we take an ‘industry regulates itself’ approach to this? Make a foss csam hash scanner and include it in aosp. When they try to pass these show them that it already exists. That way we at least have some transparency to what it does

Samsung Semiconductor: Buy these exynos chips and put them in your phones
Samsung Electronics: Ok buddy 😊

Samsung Semiconductor: I lost money, raise your phone prices to make up for it
Samsung Electronics: Of course! ✨️💫

Samsung Electronics: I need ram to put in phones Samsung Semiconductor: lol no

Never thought this day would come…

Are they friends? If they are friends sure, they’re evil. Although if that were the case I think the person calling them evil (and the linked blog) would have included that front and center rather than the definition of open source stuff.

I’ve clicked through the links and the most ‘evil’ thing they did seems to be using a non-mainstream open source licence? Evil is getting contracted by Israel. Prohibiting other companies from profiting off your work isn’t evil.

Edit: And they hosted an interview with Curtis Yarvin. That’s bad, but still doesn’t warrant calling them evil.

Or something about packaging. Or I used a function that has a different implementation for debug mode out of its intended purpose. Or

Only thing worse is not finding the bug that only happens in release mode

Them who? What happened?

… Brazil is one of the first countries this’ll go into effect and I also remember something about how that first batch of countries was chosen because their governmemts support this change.

that took a turn:

:(. Depressing

Same thing happened to me, and there is a delete all button. Go to Google photos > top right profile pic > backup is off (or whatever it says when it’s on) > top right gear > undo backup for this device.

I made fun of the Liberux Nexx before due to its outdated cpu being promoted as new but this is making me change my mind. Speed isn’t worth the walled garden. I have concerns about the battery life but all it takes to remedy that is a powerbank. Banking apps might be a problem but if I find their websites wanting I can just use them on an old cheap android.

It is disappointing that the Liberux Nexx missed its fundraising goal and had to open a new one. And the new one is only 10% of the way there, with no prototype and delivery on next summer. That’s cutting it very close with the timeline of these restrictions. https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/liberux-nexx--3#/

BTW, the Google blog post webpage has a link to a feedback form. Doubt it will do anything, but if you want an abyss to yell that’s good as any: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfN3UQeNspQsZCO2ITkdzMxv81rJDEGGjO-UIDDY28Rz_GEVA/viewform

I think the best parts of the books were Percy’s narration and they can’t have that in a show
