You can modify the keybinds in software too. You would need to change your console keymap (TTY) and your desktop environment keybindings. Programmable keyboard is most likely easier though.

I played around with it and changed both to just use F1 = tty1 and so on, without requiring CTRL+ALT.

Your needs must be different than mine.

I press one button combination and have root without ever entering a password. I press a similar combination and go back. Not sure how this is a pain in the ass.

All I do is have agetty --autologin root tty2 linux run as a service. It launches on startup, and I just hit CTRL + ALT + F2 if I ever need a root shell.

All its doing is just auto logging-in as root on TTY2.

From what I’ve read, no. Though it doesn’t solve the fundamental problem of a root process handling untrusted input from a regular user.

The TTY method is IMO better as it ties privileges to a piece of physical hardware, bypassing the complexities of userspace elevation of privileges.

The nosuid mount option disables this behavior per mount. Just be sure you don’t use suid binaries.

Example: sudo or doas. I replaced those with switching to a tty with an already open root account on startup. Generally faster and (for me) more secure (you need physical access to get to the tty).

…decided it was evil to suggest to people showing non-cis traits or behaviors that they, indeed, may not be cis.

From the sources I found, most people take the “Egg Prime Directive” to mean asserting someone’s identify is wrong, not suggesting explanations for how they feel.

Every skyrim release has come packaged with the same bugs and errors that the original 360 disk has when they first released it

This isn’t true. They do release patches. 1 2

We’re using the definition differently. There is nothing left to discuss.

Miranda is required by law

Irrelevant to the point. I was pointing out the value proposition. Certain things exist for a minority of people. I view the 'reason why" as valuable, even if only a minority care about it.

They don’t have to explain anything to you

Correct. We wont do business if one cannot give an explanation. One can write in the privacy policy that they collect all sorts of private information, but the kicker, for me, is often why.

The vast majority of people who run into the Anubis setup will have no fucking clue what any of it means, nor give a shit about it. They just want to get to the content.

One doesn’t have to care about the Miranda warning, but its still read off to someone in case they do.

From my experience a user account usually needs to be in the “wheel” group to elevate privileges through sudo. So try that.

Its their responsibility to make clear the reason they require it.

Something like Anubis does it well by adding a “Why am I seeing this?” section to their JavaScript challenge.

I believe the bandaid needs ripping off.

Just like how community effort into making windows more tolerable never solves the fundamental problem of it being closed-source and out of your control, Firefox being largely dependant on Google, while fighting against privacy invasion and ads creates a conflict of interests.

This is solved by removing the influence

Simply: Do the protections against someone taking your computer and installing a malicious program before/as your OS, or a program that has attained root on your machine and installs itself before/as your OS, matter enough to you to justify the increased risk of being locked out of your machine and the effort to set it up and understand it.

If you don’t understand and don’t want to put in the effort to, then my advice would be to leave it off. Its simple, and the likelihood it saves you is probably very miniscule.

I will note that your statement is factually false

It was true. I stated what I believed you to have meant. I didn’t put forth an opinion on it.

Its a blanket statement. Further precision in your statement is necessary to be factual.

Russians are incapable of good faith negotiations.

I believe you mean Russian heads of government and military.

…and this is the primary reason they cannot be supported directly by Graphene.

This is phrased like a technical boundary. They are not supported because Graphene chooses not to support them. Not to say it would be easy, but they are making a choice to solely use Google’s hardware.

They don’t have to.

but Blåhaj can’t demand that their rules be enforced in other instances.

They can and they did.

I think most instances have a baseline of what is not acceptable, even on other instances. This is one of those baseline rules.
