Comment on U.S. inks bill to force geo-tracking tech for high-end gaming and AI GPUs

and not just through the american archive.org.
but I wpuld say if you can’t hold all the driver files yourself, keeping a list of sha256 hashes or better of them could be worth it too, to later verify their authenticity if you find it somewhere. its also easier to search by hash sometimes

Yeah, that’s the only way I can see this work. I use Linux with the Mesa drivers, that are part of the kernel, anyway, so there’s not really a need for me to make driver backups.

Believe it or not, straight to CECOT.

If I went to the USA now, they’d probably put me there after looking at my social media activity anyway
