    TPM chip is a decade old, built into all but shit laptops, and is a net positive for overall system security.

    Id argue it’s more than not required under Linux, it’s barely supported under Linux and is a giant pain to get working.

      See that’s where you’re wrong though, because my computer does have a TPM chip and still can’t run Win11. That’s because Microsoft locked them down to v2.0 or newer ones and mine’s only a v1.2 chip.

        Well that’s an actually new thing to say. Considering this Linux fanboy hissy fit over a software they hate has been going on what 3 years now, I’m honestly impressed.

        Looks like it’s still about a decade old but… neat
