Cool and useful project! I'm guessing the name is a reference to the popular (well, at least back in the days...) TortoiseSVN application which did something similar for Subversion?

If you don't want TLS warnings then just create the certificates from a single (self-signed) root CA and deploy the CA certificate in your local Chrome, Windows, etc. As an added bonus you get actual security. Since anyone can just re

Part of me hopes a fork comes out of this. I mean maybe features like this PR[1] for local state file encryption can then finally get merged. [1] https://github.com/hashicorp/terraform/pull/28603

So how do you manage the risk of a user connecting to a remote desktop with an un-updated machine full of malware? In the end if the client machine is breached the remote virtual one will also fall?

NFSv4 differs a lot from NFSv3. It's almost as big of a change as ipv4 and IPv6 are. Seems pretty reasonable to give it it's own name.

It's always hard to predict the future. People using CentOS have probably had more more scares then the ones using FreeBSD. CentOS had its main maintainer gone missing, the CentOS stream thing and now the RHEL closing thing.

Both claims (the number of chopped down trees and the compensation) are made by the same person. "Yes I admit I broke something, but I compensated for it somewhere else"...

Unless I see some hard facts to back that claim up I'm inclined to put as much faith in this as the average "carbon offset" scheme. Sounds like "spreadsheet wishful thinking" to me.

I highly doubt this key was on a HSM. I keep being amazed by news about keys being stolen which seemingly should have been on a HSM.

If you switch to a different platform you will also have to change the way you do training, logistics, (field) maintenance, etc. That's going to be a hell of a project. So if you have something that works...

Would anyone trust RedHat enough to fall for that and wait for RedHat to start squeezing them by gradually lowering that number over the years?
