Never before has “I work in the tech industry” sounded so much like “I work in the tobacco industry”

@vollaficationist Unified Attestation is nothing more than an anti-competitive power grab via a centralized service sitting on top of Android hardware attestation. There has yet to be any valid explanation for why this has been created. It would be entirely possible to have neutral organizations certifying devices and publishing those certificates as signed data usable with Android hardware attestation. There's no valid reason to have a centralized service under the control of these companies.
congrats to the developers of the new xbox one exploit for manipulating the hardware you own to run the code you want, which is something so vile and disgusting to see in personal computing

i like gentoo
not just the os but the community
it's mostly older guys but it couldn't be further from the techbro circlejerk these spaces usually turn into
the philosophy of the os is every configuration is encouraged and supported no matter how much it deviates from defaults or from the mainstream
this translates into how humans are treated
gentoo people actually genuinely care, about ethics, about diversity, about people's niche use cases, many of them use older hardware and make sure it stays supported, there's a class aspect to that too you know

Unless these devices take over entire markets at some extremely rapid pace (sufficient enough to have slow things be complained about at scale) nothing web/app dev side will change

We’re in a world awash in (consentless) product telemetry, and with many people (across third world) already on slow devices, and I have *seen* how app dev teams respond to that internally: it’s with derision, with disregard

If you want that dev to care, *they* have to work on one of these

reminder that LLMs/"AI" are always unethical and we have project-wide policy against their usage
