I thought the binary blob thing was explained?

Basically UEFI booting requires shims and those need to be signed so the Ventoy author is re-using the ones from Fedora and OpenSUSE. This can be verified by comparing hashes, which the author of that comment shows how to do.

This whole thing seems to come down to people freaking the F out because they don’t understand how the software works and the Author of the software is currently PO’d off at the community and stopped answering questions.

The President has too much fscking power and civil liberty people have been shouting about it for more than 20 years now.

I don’t need a B580 but I’m considering buying one just to show support. It’d sure be nice to have a valid budget option.

Okay that I’m aware of but I’ve never heard of it referred to as “bootstrapping”. Thanks for the explanation.

My internet being bootstrapped by ISP…

Seriously, what does “bootstrapped” mean in this context?

Edit: if you are going to downvote at least explain if you got a counter point, otherwise it seems y’all just butthurt haha

Okay.

How is this different from US ISP bootstrapping peasant grade internet?

1. Whatabout-ism is annoying AF.
2. How is nationwide re-configuring of DNS to enable censorship different than “bootstrapping peasant grade internet” is a dumb question on it’s face.
3. I’m sitting in the middle of Wyoming sending this comment via a 2Gb/s fiber optic connection. This is not “peasant grade”.

So basically you are getting downvoted because your comment is irrelevant 'Murica bashing.

Now you know.

I looked up your account and you now have your first official follower on Mastadon. :)

I watch a fair bit of this YT Channel. He plays with / evaluates a lot of hardware that I’d otherwise never see or even know existed. I also like that he evaluates using both Windows and Linux since I’m interested in both and from his perspective it widens his audience.

Almost. Any drone that weighs more than .55lbs must be registered with the FAA and as part of that it is required to be compliant with RemoteID. RemoteID requires the drone to broadcast both its identification and location of the control station.

If it’s being operated over a home then it will almost certainly have to follow the rules on Operation Over People and those can be quite restrictive, especially for drones that weigh more than .55lbs.

There ARE Federal Rules for this in the United States, drone operators cannot legally fly any type of drone anywhere they want at any time.

I’m somewhat surprised that there’s no purchasable solution to this problem as all of the technology to make a short range drone interdiction system already exist. To detect one all that’s necessary is an appropriate camera setup and a system hooked to it capable of recognizing them, both of which are already prevalent in the market. Add an inexpensive laser range finder so the system can know if the drone is truly over your property and at an altitude acceptable for interception.

Once that’s done it becomes a matter of how to interdict the drone. One relatively safe option would be for the system to deploy a high speed short range interdiction drone to overfly the other drone and drop something on top of it meant to snarl its rotors, for instance fishing line with weights.

None of that is necessarily easy but its certainly doable.

I can’t believe people use this shit.

What’s your suggestion for a HIPAA validated EHR or PM system that runs on *Nix or WS without DE installed? Do you have one?

Why are people installing Server 2022 with a GUI even?

There are server apps that require Windows with the DE.

State preemption should make this dead on arrival.

Huh, a wild “States Rights” argument appears! Are you SURE that’s what you want? It would certainly make Texas and other Red States pretty damn happy if their laws had supremacy over Federal ones.

For fucks sake, that shit was passed and then either expired or was repealed TWO HUNDRED YEARS AGO.

This level of “Whataboutism” shouldn’t even be possible.
