You're responding to an excerpt from an article by Jay Kuo who used the word "unstable."
I'm not the one who used it.

As I'm getting started on compiling content for the next @OpenBio newsletter:
Do you have #opensource #bioinformatics or #genomics community news that should be featured? 🙂
I may have to temporarily move from the Linux stand alone app for Social Stream Ninja to manage all my chats to the browser extension on a Chromium based browser (which I will be using @brave for) as I can't really log in to all the platforms to send messages but I can at least read them. But overall I would consider Sunday's Youtube and Social Stream Ninja tests to be a success socialstream.ninja/landing

My ebooks and audiobooks (from Tor Books, Head of Zeus, McSweeneys, Beacon, Verso and others) are for sale all over the net, but I sell 'em too, and when you buy 'em from me, I earn twice as much and you get books with no DRM and no license "agreements."

in reply to Cory Doctorow • • •While I'd love to see remote attestation / trusted computing / DRM be eradicated from personal computing, I fail to see how anticheats/antimalware getting kicked out of kernelspace changes anything here.
In order for those softwares to keep doing what they currently do from userspace, Microsoft will have to implement new kernel APIs for them.
I fail to see why such APIs couldn't include remote attesation, and in fact, I'm really expecting them to include it. (sadly)
