Over the past few months, I have been deep into learning Clojure, and have been rather busy doing contract projects over the past year, etc, and not paying much attention to latest news. But then I came across this: http://mjg59.dreamwidth.org/12368.html Seriously? I remember the brouhaha over "Trusted Computing" about a decade ago-- even once found myself with a secondhand ThinkPad that had some kind of bootloader encryption chip built in (and unused)--, but I thought that whole idea died the death it so richly deserved. Is it really back? Am I reading this right? All operating systems to run on any PC must be signed by MSFT? Certified machines will refuse to boot any loader that isn't MSFT-approved? I'm not panicking, because there will probably always be enough CPU's and Mobo's available from China without all this corporate-ware installed. And if phones can be jailbroken then PCs can too. But, still, WTF? Really? -ken _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
