wha

One of the odd things about TPM's is how very vague they are.

OK one, Discrete TPM 2.0 as of maybe November '22 is insecure. 

TPM's are tied into the power-scheme of your computer (it's what PCR7 is going on about)

(link)

Cast out the interloper, weeping gnashing etc (*yawn*)

Big-ass question, if TPM's don't work and are so hardware-limited, why does Microsoft insist upon one? 

I knew there was a gotcha, it's a warning in my BIOS, I just could not remember WHERE in BIOS.

What does power have to do with a TPM scrambling your drive? (don't touch my drive). Power, Microsoft, ahhh.

Well anyway can we sort of conclude that (um) TPM's work great on Mobile-devices, not so good on desktops (the kind you build yourself?)

Not built by Dell, no certificate for you, unworthy,

Not an "S0" power scheme (one-eye-open sleep), unworthy.

Buy a pagan TPM, it won't matter, you'll NEVER be worthy (insert cackling here)

I found this Great site "clarissa explains it all" or somesuch.

I just ran a benchmark (like I've been doing all of yesterday morning) and found, NX and SVM are like those hands in the tar in my game dragging you down to your doom.

No word yet on what the appendage of a TPM does, will it need to be excised?

Do TPM's in fact attract monsters from the aether(net)?

NVM that last sentence, but it makes me wonder if wearing a TPM like some badge in very bad neighborhoods might be a bad idea.....

The whole "Attestation" thing is all that's left of the tattered sails of a DIY system with a TPM, and unless you become a minion, no one cares about your attestation, you might as well rant on a street corner (or in this blog).

Vague promises about software integrity are mostly unfulfilled.

Random tidbits:

FTR, svm and nx "on"

Aether is demanding something, the lion isn't happy about it.

Think, Penguin Laughing at Batman

ah, HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
