yet again I needed to download and verify a @QubesOS image, and yet again having the QubesOS official t-shirt (which has the Qubes Master Signing Key fingerprint printed on it) turned out to be very useful, actually.

I am such a nerd.

@rysiek @QubesOS rotating the signing key will get a bit involved at some stage. "Please download this PDF and print it on an iron-on carrier. Cut to size, and place over the expired key, cover with a clean cotton cloth. Heat iron to III and apply equal pressure in smooth moves. Do not overheat."

@rysiek
Because it never hurts to have another out-of-band source for a public key fingerprint.

Guessing you took it off for readability.

@rysiek this is the second time I’ve seen @QubesOS mentioned today and now I’m really curious about it.

@Lu_Tze @rysiek @neil I know this is too hard 😅 it's surprising how hard it is to get a set-wallpaper tool working in Qubes without the Hardcore Security Guys looking at me in despair and saying "no!"...

It's the only OS I know where setting your desktop background image makes you feel like a genius.

@neil there is a lot of friction. Some of it is unavoidable.

But I've been using it for a decade or so now and I can't really see myself using anything else. QubesOS is improving massively, also usability-wise (thanks, @marmarta!), every release!
