That includes posts generated by LLMs. It doesn’t matter if you “don’t have the time” or “would’ve written the same anyway”, or if “everyone’s doing it geez get with the times”.

For now it’ll also include “AI”-assisted projects that haven't had at least two months of (public, verifiable) dev time behind them.

CachyOS is adding a dedicated EACv2-compatible kernel plus a Secure Boot setup guide so users can optionally meet Epic’s new EACv2 requirements without changing their normal optimized kernel. (github.com)

It should have been Valve doing it! (And that comes from someone hating on Epic and loving Valve, BTW.)

I've written at length elsewhere in the topic about how it's not just the technical implementation, but what this attestation process signifies about control of these companies over your system.

I understand this is one of the weaker arguments I can make in isolation, but it bears asking the question: why is it Epic that's doing it and not Valve?

They don't have control over my system. Its still controlled by the Linux Kernel and the features of it, no direct control from the companies. They can't do whatever they want.
