Just another Linux hacker
Constantly struggling to hide my affection of hacker subculture and memes behind the veil of corporate professionalism.
Father of 2, master of none.
Interested in #MotorSport, #F1, #VintageCars, #VideoGames, #InfoSec, #OpenHAB, #HomeAutomation, #Linux, #OSS.
Thoughts and opinions are my own.
I am not a bot (that I'm aware of).

> spends 5 years breaking GRUB piece by piece
> strips LUKS encryption from /boot "for security"
> proposes to remove: btrfs, xfs, zfs
> keeps SquashFS, two CVEs, one rated 7.8 HIGH
> controls the signing keys for all of it
> Canonical promoted him.

And yes, why are commercial bug reporting platforms such a PITA to deal with trying to get someone to actually listen. Having a public reporting mechanism feels like such a "box ticking exercise" from their end.
