Ah yes, another thrilling episode of "Firmware Follies" where hackers play peekaboo with #SecureBoot, and OEMs scramble to patch holes they forgot they had 🤦‍♂️. #Hydroph0bia, the latest buzzword, sounds more like a fear of water than a security flaw, but who cares as long as the patch notes are longer than the fix? 🚀🔒

If you haven't had your own run-in with #UEFI #certificate #expiration and updates on #Windows or #Linux

Allow me to help answer one underlying question.

Will users be able to use #SecureBoot with another #OS like Linux if there's no update possible?

It's looking unlikely that any computer that does _not_ match the minimum requirements to run #Windows11 will get new certs.

Manufacturers need to offer their part of firmware updates + #Microslop doing pt 2.

I.e., #HP: https://support.hp.com/us-en/document/ish_13070353-13070429-16

Is there any public group taking care of #Eu #DigitalSovereignty (for what ever it means ?)

Is it part of #CRA requirements ?

I have similar concerns regarding #MsMonopoly on #SecureBoot for #x86 #Computers (#PCs and #Servers).

Are anti concurrency practices also a model threat to you ?

Lot of questions, few answers so far, only implementations with mixed feelings..

Inputs welcome anyway

Me encanta #linuxmint.

Es bonito, fácil y estable. Todo lo que se le puede pedir a un sistema operativo.

En mi caso los únicos fallos que he tenido ha sido por culpa de la gráfica de #nvidia. En cualquier caso una vez lo sabes el fix es sencillo, o firmar los drivers de nvidia, siguiendo la guía que hay anclada en el foro de linux mint o deshabilitar secure boot. Yo tras haber firmado una versión antigua he optado por lo segundo con la versión nueva para no volver a tener problemas en el futuro.
Firmar los drivers de nvidia son 3 comandos y un reinicio, no es complejo. Y deshabilitar #secureboot es muy sencillo también, entrar a la uefi y cancelar esta opción. No tiene más.

Por cierto la ilustración de fondo es de #michaelwhelan al que podéis encontrar en el fediverso.
