Reflecting the TPM2 related statements published by FSF, even this year (2025):

1. TPM is first and foremost a protocol for keystores and alike devices
2. If TPM did not exist, every vendor would have their own incompatible crypto co-processor and associated protocol to communicate with the device.

As of today, only Apple has their own proprietary and incompatible crypto co-processor, which manages similar tasks as TPM in that platform.

The full scope of what I do have encapsulated to wrappers:

git-fetch-tag() {
  git fetch --no-tags "$1" "refs/tags/$2:refs/tags/$2"
}

git-fixes() {
  git --no-pager log --format='Fixes: %h ("%s")' --abbrev=12 -1 $1;
}

git-tip() {
  git --no-pager log -1;
}

git-tail() {
  git rev-list --max-parents=0 HEAD
}

My usual style to refactor symbol names is somewhat ad-hoc but usually does the job:

$ BEFORE=VIDEO_LOOP_CTL_ADD
$ AFTER=VIDIOC_LOOP_ADD
$ git grep -l $BEFORE | \
xargs sed -i "s/$BEFORE/$AFTER/g"

I don’t have a script for this because writing down manually helps to keep mind focused.

Temu's slogan is "shop like a billionaire" but I can't find "US president" for sale anywhere on their site.

There's support for Sixel, Kitty Image Protocol etc. And recent versions of Julia don't crash as much as it used to :-) Would not use it for calculating trajectories for missiles or space rockets but for my daily use it is definitely good enough...

@janantos i've done lately most of my math and plotting with julia. it's a bit unstable but quite robust too.

It's actually hardware feature of which I've honestly have believed never to realize.

Reviewed this morning the latest incarnation of Trenchboot from Ross Philipson (of Oracle). salute this work in the sense that D-RTM is a hardware feature with something like 20 years of age and no success realizing in the upstream. It's pretty nasty one to get right...

Lindberg ilmeisesti tosissaan ajattelee, että kaikki on USAn kanssa kunnossa, koska "asiaa ei ole otettu pöydälle Naton neuvostossa" ja "DCA-sopimus on nostanut puolustusyhteistyön sitovasti erilaiselle tasolle."

Näyttääkö siltä, että sopimuksilla ja neuvostoilla olisi Trumpille mitään merkitystä?

@ncopa OK, maybe these new USB-C need some extra twists to get that working because it seems not to work out-of-the-box at least.
