Random Dent

Oh weird, I use it with a touchpad on my laptop (Lenovo Ideapad if that makes any difference) and it’s always been fine for me.

I genuinely use Floorp as my main daily browser lol

AFAIK it’s not necessarily about Linux using Microsoft keys, it’s more about Microsoft shoe-horning their bullshit into everything they possibly can, including at the hardware/firmware level.

But if secure boot happens to brick your system forever because of this expiring key thing, is that worse than a boot chain attack?

That’s what I do. I never enabled it based on the assumption that because it’s a Microsoft thing, it would eventually fuck me over in some way. That attitude has served me well for may years lol.
