  I feel conflicted. OAuth gets a lot correct in so far as most sites don’t have to deal with a lot of difficult auth bits, but also I don’t like having to rely on big (usually social media) companies to be the auth source.

  I think about dnssec a lot.

  It feels to me like there should be some form of public key infrastructure where there is a global root key (or short list of) then providers that can issue certificates out to other smaller organizations or individuals who could then use that source of trust to prove who they are. Imagine OAuth but you could just fill in your provider of choice (self hosted?) and if the certs checked out everything would verify correctly.

  That being said who does the bits around ensuring that you are who you say you are. I suppose a government body running such a system could work though I sweat at the idea of going to the dmv to reset a forgotten password or report a stolen identity.

  Idk maybe if I think about this enough I can come up with a cryptography secure system…

  I think you are right. A little bit of research seems to show that windows doesnt allow such things.

  On Linux you could make a ramdisk with like BusyBox and your new image (or new image on some other drive) pivot_root then overwrite the entire boot disk to some other disk image.

  It would be a bit hairy, but could be done

  I wouldn’t consider this a real option in any way, but it is a fun experiment to theorycraft.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is it possible to install a distro directly from online ?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I feel like you should be able to do this tbh.

  I can basically do this from Linux. I could build a disk image and extract it right onto my disk and reboot and be in that new system. It would take some work to get right, but it’s basically how the rpi images work.

  I think your biggest issue is making sure enough utilities were loaded in ram that you could finish the extraction before the system crashes cause you’ve deleted some important utilities.

  Assuming an 8 hour working day that means your Internet is around 20Mbps?

  That’s pretty slow imo. IIRC the standard for broadband Internet in the US is 100mbps.

  At 100Mbps you should be able to download the game in about an hour and a half.

  I don’t know anyone cares, but I was curious about the math sorry

  They added a shorts limit though. It prevents you from watching more than 15 minutes of shorts a day. Experimentally afterwards it seems to recommend slightly fewer shorts in your feed.

  The worst here are financial institutions. What do I want the most security on? My money.

  I get that they have regulations, but it annoys me all the time.
