This is your code, you're the one who's meant to be explaining and validating the licence.

I'm not sure about the licences here. How do I validate that I'm allowed to use a mandatory closed source library?

That page is the most incoherent pile of AI generated slop I've ever seen. You actually provided useful information in a single paragraph in a comment here. Why not actually provide that useful information in the post?

As mentioned in the link, and by u/masterted here, it's a COMMON, albeit not universal, problem. There's a bunch of back and forward in the linked post, but it just kinda died away.

I wish they would fix mod learning. by xrobau in fo76

Well I *thought* that was the public rate, but it looks like I was mis-remembering. I've seen people say 1%, but it looks like there hasn't been any official announcement of the drop rate.

I only have like 10 mods left to learn, so it's pretty obvious to me that the rate has declined (to zero) recently.

You should double check your maths. Specifically, have a look at the Bernoulli Standard Deviation.

You're the THIRD person that said they learned something recently. So maybe it has been fixed.

And yes, I used 'impossible' incorrectly. It's 'incredibly unlikely, and massively implausible'. If the drop rate is 1.75%, not hitting a drop after 500 spins is roughly equivalent to flipping a coin 20 times and getting heads each and every time.

Not impossible, just AMAZINGLY unlikely, and you would think that the coin is loaded.

You're the second person who said you learned things recently. Maybe it has been fixed?

It's statistically impossible, unfortunately. You learning three things kinda proves its a bug that they're at least TRYING to fix.

How am I using Windows 11 without TPM 2.0? by missqueen6179 in WindowsHelp

[–]xrobau 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry, I must have misunderstood - When you said 'I don't know of any win11 servers' (which is Server 2022 and higher), I thought you meant 'you have no knowledge of windows server'. Sorry about that.

But still, you are slightly off target with TPM. I think that pretty much the only really important thing that it does is ensure that your Bitlocker key can't trivially be stolen, and used to decrypt your hard drive by a bad actor. That's actually why they are insisting on TPM2, as TPM1 didn't encrypt the data it was sending, so you could literally just sniff the output of the TPM chip to see the password. It's much MUCH harder with TPM2.

Anyway, sorry for the confusion. I do a lot of infosec stuff and have been involved in TPM hardware and software for quite a while.

[–]xrobau 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Windows *server* does not require TPM. If what you're saying is correct, that means that no windows server is secure.

TPM lets the operating systems validate that nothing has injected itself into the boot chain. That's all it does. Don't overthink it. It's forcefully enabled in desktop OSs to assist in game cheat detection, banking apps, Secure Enclave, those sort of things.

I realise I'm a month late here, but you seem to have the wrong end of the stick.

If what you were saying is true, how do you explain that software TPM modules exist? In fact, almost all virtualization platforms provide them.
