Shamefacedly deletes an unanswered thread dating to February 2023 from his inbox.

In my head, an error message from qmail:

This is a permanent error; I've given up. Sorry it didn't work out.

@pdp7 @gregkh just out of curiosity I asked ChatGPT what "tip.git" stands for, and it assures me, that it stands for "Tracking Important Patches". Which is on par with LLMs, I guess.

Interesting replies on kernel newbies from @gregkh and @monsieuricon
> What does "TIP" stand for in the repository

' "Thomas" "Ingo" "Peter", the original maintainers of that tree (i.e. the
x86 maintainers tree, which has now grown to other people and other
parts of the kernel.)'

@losttourist Can confirm -- I have previously sent my nitrokey through a washing cycle and it's still working after overnighting in some silica gel crystals.

In non-CVE news, here's some fun hardware I got while visiting Hong Kong. It's not the snappiest laptop I've ever used, but it holds potential!

Kernel source is all public (there's a 6.1.y and 6.6.y tree at the moment), hopefully will start working on getting it all merged upstream to make it a proper platform for others to use.

@vbabka @gregkh you don't have to change anything if it's working for you. It's the people who are using plain private keys that I'm trying to motivate to change.
