you can check out https://github.com/lunatic-solutions/lunatic for that
gdamjan1··on AstraZeneca/EU contract
> AstraZeneca is currently struggling to produce 2 million doses a week for the UK [0]. How does the EU expect to use UK production to shore up a shortfall of 49 million doses that they require in February/March?

open-source the vaccine, the recipes, processes, etc. everything needed so EU can look for a capable manufacturer on its own?

gdamjan1··on Unlocking LUKS2 Volumes with TPM2, FIDO2, PKCS#11 Security HW on Systemd 248
here's what I had to do on Arch to enable unlocking the root volume with TPM2: https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/17741#issuecomment-7...

it'll need some work from the distros so the whole process is a bit more straightforward.

gdamjan1··on Unlocking LUKS2 Volumes with TPM2, FIDO2, PKCS#11 Security HW on Systemd 248
this is exactly the feature that's now possible with systemd too

fTPM on my Ryzen 3600 worked.
gdamjan1··on FPGA dev board that's cheap, simple and supported by OSS toolchain
There's also this FPGA board and I think you can order it already: https://ulx3s.github.io/

The ULX3S FPGA board has the Lattice ECP5 FPGA, and an ESP32 that connects to wifi and can reprogram the FPGA.

gdamjan1··on Make Android Self-Hosting
that seems to me a simplifistic conclusion.

modern interfaces in windows 10 and macOS are quite inconsistent and not-beatiful compared to for ex. KDE which slowly evolves and polishes up. macOS on the other hand limits and removes features without becoming more consistent.

gdamjan1··on Systemd: Don’t fallback to Google NTP and DNS
it is runtime config. these are defaults in case the distro doesn't change it, or the admin doesn't set it.
gdamjan1··on Fakecracker: NetBSD as a Function Based MicroVM
Does NetBSD support initramfs (the name of the Linux feature)? That would avoid having to create a disk image by running a bare system from a ramfs/tmpfs.

I experimented with something like that with Linux and cloud-hypervisor (a firecracker fork): https://gist.github.com/gdamjan/1f260b58eb9fb1ba62d223495858...

gdamjan1··on Scaleway C2 and ARM64 instances will reach end-of-life in December 2020
any other providers supporting ARM64 VPSs?
gdamjan1··on Robinhood experiencing a ‘system-wide outage’ as markets rebound
> But if you weren't in at the opening bell or there about those profits are gone.

why are we (as a civilization) even optimizing for this?

gdamjan1··on Show HN A simple script to use pug with any Python framework
what is "pug"? (a link in the readme would be nice)
gdamjan1··on Containers in 2019: They're Calling It a Hypervisor Comeback
> ...preventing devs/ops people to run tools like iotop, unless extra capabilities are added.

you run those on the host, not inside containers

gdamjan1··on A. Ocasio-Cortez grills M. Zuckerberg during Congressional hearing [video]
> I wonder why she has no problem with phone companies letting people say illegal things on the phone line.

wait, are you claiming that phone companies are recording all your calls (and content you create) to make psychological profiles of people, and then sell access to those profiles to other companies? Have you ever got any news feed filled with ads based on what you talked over the phone?

gdamjan1··on The Cult of Kubernetes
> However, http/https ports are already used on routers to offer an admin web GUI.

not on the wan side I'd hope

gdamjan1··on GNU C Library 2.30
yes, you can. the linker loader is the default executable for all ELF binaries
gdamjan1··on Xapiand: A fast, simple, modern search and storage engine
the author can license his own source code however he likes. only, when distributing the compiled binaries, you're required to provide the whole sources under libre (gpl compatible) terms.
gdamjan1··on The Firecracker virtual machine monitor
they used crosvm which is used on cromeos devices to support Crostini (linux vm)
gdamjan1··on EXploit X: “Give Me Root” [video]
that's not needed at all, unless you have legacy applications.

you can open a dri render device node, and use it directly

gdamjan1··on What I've learned since quitting Elm
click the "reader view" icon (ctrl-alt-r)
gdamjan1··on The default OpenSSH key encryption is worse than plaintext
bless allows to specify the remote user in the certificate. you'll need to customize the certificate issuing program (a small python lambda program)
gdamjan1··on RFC for 7xx HTTP status
not worth the bits it's on

gdamjan1··on BPF, EBPF, XDP and Bpfilter
firewalld is just a management daemon with a dbus intrerface. nothing stops it from using iptables, nftables or bpfilter
gdamjan1··on DOSBox x86 system emulator
Also worth mentioning, http://js-dos.com/ offers an API to load an emscripten build of dosbox and a DOS program of your choice.
gdamjan1··on How we built Hamiltix.net for less than $1 a month on AWS
Storing it, or passing it by the user can be suitable if the data is signed
gdamjan1··on Tiny quad-core system-on-module for makers and hardware startups
That's good enough for U2F (the same chip is used in u2fzero). But not good enough for RSA.

I wonder if it can be made to work for attestation like TPM
