Preparing #guitar #sampling setup with SM-57 front of the cabin. I.e. not the cheapest setup with guitar going directly to sound card and immediate plugin chain :-)

@coelacanthus actually I think i just write a simple viewer, which so the stuff I need to see from each subkey. The bigger issue for me with gnupg than how to do something is to how to see what changed. I actually might use this opportunity to learn a bit more rust :-) Since I know pretty much what properties I want to see from each key most of the time I use OpenPGP it is easier just to take the time and write a non-generic read-only program to view that picture. The user experience of gnupg is convoluted to say the least.

@coelacanthus I think I give a shot for writing a small python script that gives me more elaborated status report of a keyring state than gnupg -K does. I.e. shows both keys, and also their sealing state (or whatever it is called).

i realized that i have a home page: https://jjs.kapsi.fi/. Had forgotten this but it looks still up to date :-) my web skills are not advanced enough to put the "music" playing background and looping so that could be a level up.

@coelacanthus @kaiengert @thunderbird I guess it is OpenPGP day [1] :-) I wonder why maintaining a keyring has to be such a mess...

thanks for the feedback anyway, i migrated to yubikey! and once again printed my master key also as a set of QR stickers (encrypted with passphrase) :-) I bought a label writer few years ago specifically for this purpose. if you have ideas just for the sake learning and understanding how passphrases were supposed to work please don't hesitate to share to this post, thank you.

@krzk @vbabka yup, since I don't have ideas how to proceed with the subkey password, I'll seal my master key for now to Yubikey :-) I don't even know exactly how to verify if it was removed or see if a particular subkey has a passphrase (I tried tools such as Seahorse also to see if they give this visibility but no luck).

To put short: I do not disagree with you but I want to first know what heck I'm doing :-) It should not be that hard to do these tasks.

Facebook might be an oddball but I'm also a hobbyist musician so I literally need that platform for artist pages and events etc. I could slowly scrape that away too as I've delegated my artist page management to my girlfriend :-)

Social media platforms at the moment where I have an account:

1. Mastodon
2. Facebook
3. SoundCloud
4. LKML ;-)

Over the summer I've just made analysis does a platform provide measurable benefit for my life. This caused me to scrape away LinkedIn and Twitter for instance. I can literally feel how much more peaceful I am and a lot of anxiety has gone. Social media is IMHO a digital narcotic.

I used to have Nitrokey Pro in the past with paper printed backup of my master key as a set QR codes. I'm now in the middle of migration. I actually set the passphrase accidentally to a subkey and now I'm clueless how get rid of it. I just want to understand before progressing forward.

IMHO, both #AMD #SEV #SNP and #Intel #TDX are quite questionable technologies given the narrow span of user base limited only selected large companies. Very few maintainers can test any of the patches.

We should demand providing affordable #hardware for these technologies like NUC7 in the past for #SGX. IMHO, a technology should not land to the kernel in most cases, unless a college student can afford to buy at least some hardware for testing the tech in question.

I'm wondering why there is so little fuzz about this considering how much FUD was spread all over the community about #TPM's in the past.

What confidential computing would desperately need is new versions of Intel NUC (or is it now Asus NUC) and new UDOO BOLT for testing SEV-SNP.. Otherwise innovation will not exist.

@krzk @vbabka I'm migrating my keyring to yubikey atm. I have two of them. But still I don't want to proceed on that before I know how the basic password management works with OpenPGP. E.g. I don't even know how to see whether a key has a password set or not in the first place :-)

I wonder what is the best practice to remove #passphrase from #OpenPGP subkey. I’m using #gnupg2. I’ve spend hours on this and still not able to do it :-(

I.e. I have this:

$ gpg -K
/home/jarkko/.gnupg/pubring.kbx
-------------------------------
sec   rsa4096 2019-06-24 [C] [expires: 2024-07-04]

ssb   ed25519 2022-12-29 [A]

And I want to remove passphrase from #ed25519 #authentication #key.
