I don't expect my machine to reboot unattended. I immediately imagine the government prying it from my hands, booting it and then searching for vulnerabilities in lightdm / dumping the RAM (just checked and I have a line "TSME enabled" in kernel logs so dumping data from the memory sticks probably will be useless)

I've never thought much about secure unattended reboots, thank you for suggesting

as long as it's not the government who is doing the censorship / content moderation then I'm OK

since the government is too powerful and can enforce its ideas with legal violence

I always struggle to understand the point of using disk encryption with TPM, as opposed to the disk encryption with LUKS + passphrase which you remember

With TPM you depend on it so much. What if it breaks? Should I backup the recovery key beforehand? My life has enough keys already Moving the disk to a new laptop also becomes pain

man! I love the instant mouse movements in unreal 1 games

maybe my PC just sucks but it feels in modern games your mouse movements go via so many abstractions and it feels like your movement is constrained by some liquid

yes, writing data to a local disk is faster than sending bytes over a network to your (redundant and replicated) network attached storage

Americans are so naive about the "turn on their motherland" part. It's not really a reply to you, I just remembered some american whom I met and he was treating us as kids, saying things as "alone you are weak but together you are strong!"

yes if you could magically organize 10_000 people they could overthrow anyone. But organizing is hard. Starting from a fact that they need some secure comminution channel, and the government fights VPN quite actively. How would you reach these potential people? You could do sort of broadcast a public message "if you don't like tsar let's take a walk tomorrow" but this signal would also be received by the police, so they can prepare. And we don't have the beautiful gun ownership culture of America.

And if you do something alone you just perish in prison.

why are you mentioning roce and ml training? These are cpu-only machines with 10 Gbit uplinks shared between every virtual machine. I'm not super familiar with the helmet offering, but last time I checked their GPU servers were baremetal

Maybe calling the setup "suboptimal" is incorrect and it is optimal given their fleet and customers

a river crab? Is this a joke related to the chinese great firewall?
