AriadneGPLv3 section 10 has been thrown out by the US circuit court of appeals: https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.cand.335295/gov.uscourts.cand.335295.140.0.pdfFeb 21 01:48
Ariadneit turns out the court was not moved by the idea that you can just delete further license restrictions not in the GPLFeb 21 01:48
Ariadnego figureFeb 21 01:48
schestowitz-TRwhat isd this cas'es context?Feb 21 01:49
schestowitz-TRnew case?Feb 21 01:49
AriadneNeo4J is licensed under AGPL and Commons Clause, somebody forked it and dropped Commons ClauseFeb 21 01:50
Ariadneciting GPL section 10 as allowing them to do soFeb 21 01:50
AriadneNeo4J sued the fork authorFeb 21 01:50
Ariadnecourt agreed, ruled GPL section 10 is nonsenseFeb 21 01:51
schestowitz-TRso waitFeb 21 01:52
schestowitz-TRit's not as simple as just GPL having an invalid bitFeb 21 01:52
schestowitz-TRbut some combination as interpreted by a not-so-high courtFeb 21 01:52
Ariadnethe point is the GPLv3 section 10 means a fork cannot add additional restrictionsFeb 21 01:53
schestowitz-TR Commons Clause is BSFeb 21 01:53
Ariadnebut you can’t use section 10 to remove additional restrictions imposed by the original authorFeb 21 01:53
Ariadnewhich is a reasonable interpretationFeb 21 01:53
Ariadneand yes, commons clause sucksFeb 21 01:53

MinceRdoes this mean that the GPLv3's measures against patent abuse/treachery are weakened?Feb 21 01:55
schestowitz"GitLab Inc. openly discloses that the EE License makes their Enterprise Edition product "proprietary, closed source code."[11] However, the company makes the source code of the Community Edition public, as well as the repository's issue tracker, and allows users to modify the source code.[12] The dual release of the closed-source Enterprise Edition and the open-source Community Edition makes GitLab an open core company."Feb 21 01:55
schestowitzOpen CoreFeb 21 01:55
schestowitza new term for proprietary+openwashngFeb 21 01:55
MinceRnot that newFeb 21 01:56
schestowitzso now every company that makes proprietary software and has some "open" mportal can mislabel itselfFeb 21 01:56
schestowitzthat's why we need to abolish the term "Open Source"Feb 21 01:56

DaemonFCTIL: Mac OS is an even bigger piece of shit than I thought. Part 4872.Feb 21 02:12
DaemonFCIt dumps dot files everywhere because Apple's fancy new file system still doesn't make proper use of journaling and XATTRs. Then when you back the folders up to Google Drive, it misinterprets the dot files as copyright infringing and deletes them, making a proper restoration of the folder data impossible later on.Feb 21 02:12
DaemonFCThe idiots at the Ninth Circus court strike again.Feb 21 02:14
DaemonFCTrump appointed a bunch to try to turn it into another right wing appeals court.Feb 21 02:14
DaemonFCHe didn't quite finish. He left four empty seats for Biden to fill.Feb 21 02:14
MinceRlolFeb 21 02:15
DaemonFCIf the case was decided by a panel of three judges, the easiest way to respond would be to appeal for the full court to reconsider, which is hilarious, because it's also got the most judges of any federal court in the country.Feb 21 02:15
DaemonFCAnd so like two dozen or so judges would have to consider this.Feb 21 02:15
DaemonFCMinceR, It's the largest appeals court in the country.Feb 21 02:18
DaemonFCIt was structured that way back when the western states were sparsely populated.Feb 21 02:19
DaemonFCThere have been efforts to split it into two appeals courts, but they always stall out.Feb 21 02:19
DaemonFCI was wrong. If the entire court had to consider this, it would be 29 judges.Feb 21 02:19
DaemonFCThe Republicans recently (2017) tried to split the court up, put a bunch of the red states in a new "12th circuit" and then create a bunch of empty seats on the new 12th circuit for Trump to fill.Feb 21 02:24
DaemonFCThey say they were happy with the damage they did to the Supreme Court, and they are.Feb 21 02:25
DaemonFCBut they would really have loved four more years to pack the lower courts too.Feb 21 02:26

DaemonFCPart of a Facebook post: "If you do anything with crypto it creates a tax situation where it's iffy on how you're supposed to report gains and losses. If you have more than 250 transactions, you'll need to summarize, and then things get really questionable and difficult.Feb 21 19:28
DaemonFCSo it becomes hard to use crypto as a means of payment, because if you bought a sandwich, it creates a capital loss or gain, and that's one of your 250 transactions that you can directly report on Form 8949, so people will back away from using it as a currency, and start "holding" and waiting for it to go up. The problem is that when everyone does that, it stops being a currency and becomes a bubble. Personally, I think FIFO is the right thing Feb 21 19:28
DaemonFCto do as far as reporting, but there are many interpretations, and the IRS keeps updating their "guidance" to be as mysterious as possible.Feb 21 19:28
DaemonFCI can only surmise that this situation, which came about under Trump, is also designed to make American citizens too scared to go anywhere near anything other than the manipulated currency produced by the government, from which they can devalue your entire savings and use it to prop up the billionaires.Feb 21 19:28
DaemonFCAlso, guess what? The IRS is happy as long as the value of crypto goes up, in general, because it means revenue, but if and when the tide goes out and people start reporting that they lost $10,000, $20,000, $50,000 or more, and carrying forward the loss (like Trump did for 20 years after his failed casino) that's when they'll snap to it, start auditing everyone, disallowing the deductions, and leave you holding the bag on all of the losses."Feb 21 19:28
DaemonFCschestowitz, The tax situation with crypto is the most ridiculous thing about crypto.Feb 21 19:28
DaemonFCIt's designed to make crypto fail if it wouldn't already.Feb 21 19:28
DaemonFCIf you buy anything with it, you have to report that as if you sold some stock to buy whatever it is you bought. If you use cash, there is no such requirement to report Capital Gains.Feb 21 19:29

DaemonFCThe funny thing is that the IRS must have known she was on disability.Feb 21 19:39
DaemonFCBecause Social Security sends them, and you, a 1099-SSA form each year.Feb 21 19:40
DaemonFCAnd that would have been the only income on their file.Feb 21 19:40
DaemonFCSo their computer should have known not to send her a letter asking what had happened.Feb 21 19:40
DaemonFCIf there's a serious mismatch of the income on their file and what you reported, or did not report, they would have sent a CP2000 letter stating "We have information that you did not report all of your income.

DaemonFCMost of the software is written in COBOL and a lot of it dates back to the 1960s and just keeps getting extended.Feb 21 19:44
DaemonFCThey have big contracts with IBM.Feb 21 19:45
DaemonFCThe systems that those programs were designed for aren't in use anymore, but they can emulate those systems.Feb 21 19:45
DaemonFCThe problem here is that when the tax system for a country that has to process almost 160 million tax returns every year is such a mess that spans decades and is written in a language that most people have long abandoned, which is hardly taught anymore....Feb 21 19:46
DaemonFCYou run into trouble.Feb 21 19:46
DaemonFCIf they modernized it with what people are learning now, they'd end up with a bigger problem. They'd be on the hook with contracts with Microsoft, most likely.Feb 21 19:46
DaemonFCAnd it's hardly clear that Microsoft will exist in 60 years.Feb 21 19:47
DaemonFCSo at that point, Microsoft is definitely "critical infrastructure". And it would be better to just keep teaching people how to use COBOL than let that happen.Feb 21 19:47

psydroid2Microsoft is setting the record straight for all of us!Feb 21 20:52
DaemonFCThe chain of so-called trust starts with Microsoft's third party signing key.Feb 21 20:53
psydroid2Microsoft <3 UsFeb 21 20:53

DaemonFCMicrosoft can revoke your ability to run a GNU/Linux distribution at their own discretion if you boot Windows at any point after installing your GNU/Linux distribution.Feb 21 20:54
DaemonFCWindows can update the dbx in the background without asking or warning you.Feb 21 20:54

mib_2zmpk0Ok so you admit that Microsoft doesn't sign the Debian kernelsFeb 21 20:55
DaemonFCThey've foolishly allowed Microsoft to decide whether it can run or not.Feb 21 20:55
psydroid2Please send my greetings to Bill and Satya!Feb 21 20:55
DaemonFCAnd to hamstring the security update flow.Feb 21 20:55
psydroid2I don't want Microsoft involved anywhere along the chainFeb 21 20:56
mib_2zmpk0Does Microsoft sign the Debian kernel this is a simple questionFeb 21 20:56
psydroid2Who caresFeb 21 20:56
DaemonFCMicrosoft has a pretense of allowing people to sign things, but Microsoft can revoke anything they want. If they refuse to sign "shim" or revoke their signature, your computer just won't boot anymore.Feb 21 20:56
mib_2zmpk0 DaemonFC> It takes about 5-7 more days to get security patches out while waiting on Microsoft to sign the kernel image.Feb 21 20:57
DaemonFCSo the only safe thing to do is pick one GNU/Linux distro and never boot anything else again, especially Windows.Feb 21 20:57
mib_2zmpk0Is this trueFeb 21 20:57
mib_2zmpk0answer no it is not trueFeb 21 20:57
DaemonFCThey have to submit it to Microsoft for their approval.Feb 21 20:57
mib_2zmpk0no they don'tFeb 21 20:57
mib_2zmpk0it is signed in the Debian build infrastrucutreFeb 21 20:57
DaemonFCI asked in their IRC channel and was told this is why it takes another week for a signed kernel.Feb 21 20:57

DaemonFCProbably Mr. Goolag again.Feb 21 20:58
DaemonFCPretending that "Secure Boot" is anything but Microsoft all over the place is ridiculous.Feb 21 20:59
psydroid2YesFeb 21 20:59
DaemonFCIn theory, you can control it. In fact, they tell OEMs to lock you out.Feb 21 20:59
psydroid2"Secure Boot" means that you need to give it the boot in a secure fashionFeb 21 20:59
DaemonFCIn new systems with Windows 11, the option to turn it off isn't even guaranteed anymore.Feb 21 20:59

psydroid2it's about retaining full control over such a "secure boot" facilityFeb 21 21:07
Ariadnemy problem with UEFI is not the ability to enable enforced codesigning, but rather UEFI itselfFeb 21 21:07
Ariadneyou can uninstall microsoft's keys from your UEFI firmware, and use your own local ones to sign kernelsFeb 21 21:08
Ariadne(also, microsoft at most just signs the bootloader)Feb 21 21:08
Ariadnealso, if microsoft revoked debian's bootloader, they would be in big trouble with, among other parties, the US Government, which run Debian derivatives on various serversFeb 21 21:09
Ariadnethis does not mean that i think microsoft having a monopoly on default UEFI trust root is a good thing, it's an absolutely fucked thingFeb 21 21:10
Ariadneanyway, there are plenty of arguments to be made about the Microsoft UEFI Signing CAFeb 21 21:11
Ariadnebut the ones DaemonFC are making aren't winnersFeb 21 21:11
MinceRjust signing the bootloader is handy for replacing the kernel, which is handy for MICROS~1 to claim/construct a reason to revoke the signatureFeb 21 21:11
XFaCECAs are dumb.Feb 21 21:11
MinceRPKI is dumbFeb 21 21:11
XFaCECA is dumber.Feb 21 21:12
MinceRand so is the "well, if the special people signed it, it must be perfect" paradigm for IT "security"Feb 21 21:12
XFaCEThat is a very astute way of putting itFeb 21 21:12
XFaCEI'm copying that explanationFeb 21 21:12
Ariadnethe way alpine does it is that the alpine installer uninstalls microsoft's keysFeb 21 21:13

Ariadnei mean, the underlying tools are FOSSFeb 21 21:15
Ariadnei'm talking about the glue that makes it so that `apk upgrade` gives you a nice fresh locally signed kernelFeb 21 21:15
XFaCEWhat about locally built kernels?Feb 21 21:15
Ariadneif you build them as APKs, then the integration still works :PFeb 21 21:16
XFaCEThe Alpine wiki even recommends custom kernels for various additional kernel security settings such as modulesFeb 21 21:16
Ariadneif you build them by hand, well, look at the scriptsFeb 21 21:16

Ariadneother platforms have far more reasonable approachFeb 21 21:22
XFaCESo the impression I'm getting here is that without Alpine's glue doing this yourself is painfulFeb 21 21:22
Ariadnei mean, it is not too badFeb 21 21:23
XFaCEWhich means basically if you like any other distro you're out of luck or stuck with a corporate solutionFeb 21 21:23

Ariadneand call it a dayFeb 21 21:23
XFaCEwhat's an efuse? Some FUSE for the EFI partition?Feb 21 21:24
Ariadnean efuse is a chipFeb 21 21:24
Ariadnethat contains a small amount of dataFeb 21 21:24

-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-en.wikipedia.org | Efuse - WikipediaFeb 21 21:25
XFaCE"In computing, an eFuse (electronic fuse) is a microscopic fuse put into a computer chip. This technology was invented by IBM to allow for the dynamic real-time reprogramming of chips. In the abstract, computer logic is generally "etched" or "hard-wired" onto a chip and cannot be changed after the chip has finished being manufactured. By utilizing a set of eFuses, a chip manufacturer can allow for the circuits on a chip to change while it is in Feb 21 21:25
XFaCEoperation"Feb 21 21:25
Ariadneanyway, point isFeb 21 21:26
Ariadneother platformsFeb 21 21:26
XFaCEOK, I guess what I'm getting to is thisFeb 21 21:26
Ariadnethey just store a hash of whatever is supposed to be bootingFeb 21 21:26

XFaCEIt's a kind of magicFeb 21 21:28
MinceRbricking isn't really magic :>Feb 21 21:28
Ariadnesigning grub is an option, but it kinda defeats the pointFeb 21 21:29
XFaCEwhat point?Feb 21 21:29
Ariadnethe point is that you do not want an unauthorized (by you) kernel to boot on the machineFeb 21 21:29
Ariadneso, the only way to do this sanelyFeb 21 21:29
Ariadneis to sign the kernel itselfFeb 21 21:29
Ariadneand run it directly as a UEFI applicationFeb 21 21:30
Ariadnee.g. no bootloaderFeb 21 21:30
XFaCEOk, it sounds then those Funtoo instructions are fine up until the point of mentioning GRUBFeb 21 21:30
MinceRi prefer getting rid of the illusion that you can have IT security without physical securityFeb 21 21:30
XFaCEMinceR: go back to those case keys?Feb 21 21:30
XFaCE:>Feb 21 21:31
AriadneMinceR: well, thats the point, the idea is that the signing keys (controlled by you) are physically located away from the machine, except when it is being upgraded :)Feb 21 21:31
XFaCEphysically located on what? a USB key?Feb 21 21:31
MinceRit's not like i can change the contents of the efuse to the next hash anywayFeb 21 21:31
MinceRright? :>Feb 21 21:31
Ariadneyes, like a yubikey or some other FIDO deviceFeb 21 21:31
AriadneMinceR: generally speaking, not without physical accessFeb 21 21:31
XFaCEOf course for the home user such a device can become corrupted because of carelessnessFeb 21 21:32
XFaCEI guess that's why there's always backupsFeb 21 21:32
Ariadnefor example in Octeon machines, you have to enroll the new hash in the u-boot console itselfFeb 21 21:32
Ariadnewith the Apple M1, you have to go into system recovery mode to enroll the new hashFeb 21 21:32
Ariadneboth of which require physical accessFeb 21 21:32
XFaCEWho is the target audience here?Feb 21 21:32

XFaCEOk, say Brodie Robertson doesn'tFeb 21 21:34
Ariadnedo i think that people managing systems that are processing highly sensitive data (classified materials, personal information, credit cards, etc) not doing this are careless? absolutelyFeb 21 21:35

immibisschestowitz: they have no idea what the protest is about except they are all angry about covidFeb 21 21:36
Ariadnesure, i'm not saying this isn't a best practice for those patient to do itFeb 21 21:36
XFaCEI mean, the thinking it is less important is what lead to consumer level garbage SSDs and ECC-less ramFeb 21 21:36
immibisthere was an attempted murder in the NZ one a few hours ago, like, driving a car into a crowd of people, which is an actual terrorist attackFeb 21 21:36

psydroid2is there an official writeup for the way Alpine does this?Feb 21 21:36

AriadneMinceR: i mean, the backdoor is the microsoft UEFI Signing CA (for various reasons)Feb 21 21:38
MinceRthere are so many backdoorsFeb 21 21:38
XFaCEAnd I find it leads to two outcomes, people who are educated to be careless and don't learn to do proper diligenceFeb 21 21:38
XFaCEOr people who want to learn but basically are bombarded with so much obfuscated crap and not enough time to absorb knowledge that the end result is being discouraged and depressedFeb 21 21:39
MinceRthere's the MICROS~1 key(s) in UEFI, there's ME/PSP, there's intel boot guard, and there's the preinstalled windows, systemd or macOSFeb 21 21:39
