    Linux nerds literally only want one thing and it’s fucking the idea that your full disk encryption will pay off one day.

    “Well, we raided his mom’s house and confiscated all his cobbled-together e-waste.”

    “And!?”

    “His drives were encrypted. Apparently he ‘applied PQC patches to dm-crypt himself’, whatever that means. All I know is that it made the guys from NSA scream. There was nothing we could do.”

    “So we’ve got nothing?”

    “Oh no. He happily gave us both the keyfile and the passphrase.”

    “So…?”

    “No warez, no CSA, no political manifestos or illicit recipes. Not even tax evasion - it’s not like he has an income. Just… copyleft source code as far as the eye could see.”

      I lol’d at this. But seriously, privacy is a fundamental human right. You don’t need to have something to hide to assert your right of privacy.

        Gentoo is fun and a nice way to learn more about computers. Their wiki and their community was really good when I was into it, I’m sure it still is. But compiling everything from scratch is quite demanding of your CPU and your time, so it’s not really something that you run as your daily driver for long.
