encryption for a single file with GPG prompt outside of
Windows. I just prove to myself that I can do it.

It is Grub -> Dracut -> decrupt, mount -> Root.

"plymouth quit" - that is how to get access to Dracut
rd.shell.

I know three ways to boot kernel:
- kexec and chroot from installCD
- Legacy BIOS - MBR record
- UEFI - EFI stub, makes installation even more harder.

Why so much effor? 1) Because this is Ring 0 level of #dailyreport #secureboot #encyption #dracut #linux #boot #gentoo #grub #dmcrypt #luks

I installed Gentoo GNU/Linux with full encypted root with
deattached LUKS2 header by GPG encrypted key file at
USB. :-) If you don't understand - it is perfect.

I almost gave up, but suddenly found complete guide from
"Screenager" with hack to Dracut. #gentoo #grub #dmcrypt #luks #dailyreport #secureboot #encyption #dracut #linux #boot #gentoo #grub #dmcrypt #luks

It's really unfortunate to see that @simplex go the Tokenization/NFTs route to fund the project, and also choose Ethereum (which was 70% pre-mined by it's developers), inventing your own coin doesn't suddenly give it value (no matter what restrictions you place on it) not trusting the operators means you don't want to let go of control, you want a Token that only YOU can control, I'm not saying it's easy.. And I'm not saying I have the solution, but this ain't it.

Don't do FDE, encrypt only specific partitions

This is what we call a beachhead.

If Florida, or any 1 state passes a law requiring a backdoor in Signal, the government now has a backdoor they can use anywhere, anytime.

Do we have an idea of how close #quantam computers are to factoring large numbers? Is it 5, 10 or 20 years away? Or do you think its likely that #RSA is broken and they can already factor hundred digit composites?
I've only got a basic understanding of these systems from Wikipedia articles

Apple pulls data protection tool after UK government security row

Customers' photos and documents stored online will no longer be protected by end-to-end encryption.

I'll never recommend Windows 11 over macOS and Linux.

Until BitLocker becomes optional after installing Windows 11, I'll die on that hill.
