I am happy to announce the release of a new #signet case (and more colors)! All the same hardware inside, it's just a new look. There are a couple slight variations: - snap together vs screw together, and - I have one without a keyloop What do you think? Prefer the cleaner look to the more functional option of having a keyloop? Want other colors? Let me know. More pics are available on the Artisans Cooperative's store:

I'm going to update my personal store soon, but I am going to spin up my own #nostr relay so it will be more stable. Had someone send money into a black hole because a relay timed out. At some point I will probably also update the store to DM me the secret *before* having the person send money. That way this can't happen again, regardless of any timeouts. I think the personal nostr notification already happens after payment, so that should already be good.

Working on an update to the #signet client so it can import the Keepass 4.x databases (currently it can do up to and including 3. x). It compiles and works on Linux, but in order to be accepted it also needs to do so on macOS and Windows, and cross compiling the Windows executables from Linux needs to work for both 32- and 64-bit versions. The keepassxc project has a bunch of dependencies, which is making this difficult. The libraries aren't packaged up elsewhere like they are on Debian. 🫤

Just managed to get a cross compiler set up so I can build #Windows executables from #Linux. While it's unlikely that anyone else will care about this #development, it means I can have Windows builds in the CI/CD. This will save me a ton of time when cutting releases.

Currently in it's own branch, but if it builds correctly, and passes manusl testing on a Windows machine, I'll merge it into trunk. Steal it as an example if you wish. #devops #OpenSource #security #FOSS

We now have a FAQ on the main Signet page.

Signet Hardware Password Manager

Signet provides hardware security for your password database. It

Thanks to the people who have asked questions. I'll continue to try to improve the documentation and make the hardware and software easier to use.

Good news: we are helping to get a bug fixed in #QubesOS. It looks like the upcoming 4.3 will allow attaching a hidraw device on the first try. That means no workarounds required to use Signet on Qubes, and it'll likely fix other devices too. (I've been using mine with Qubes for years, but it'll be nice to not have to enable usb-reset-on-attach anymore)

Thinking about checking out #podcasts who might like to have me on as a guest. Anyone have any recommendations? Any podcasts out there who cater to people getting interested in #privacy or #security? Or maybe an #OpenSource podcast where I could tell the story of how #unstoppable this project has been? #signet #FreedomTech

Signet finally has it's own account. Now you can follow this account any just get Signet updates and not have to wade through all @Dr. Hax's posts about meshtastic, preserving homegrown food and whatnot. 😂 #OpenSource #hardware #FOSS #OpenHardware #FLOSS #security #privacy #electronics
