Use a GPG smartcard with Thunderbird. Part 1: setup GnuPG

https://stafwag.github.io/blog/blog/2024/04/21/use-a-gpg-smartcard-with-thunderbird-part_1-setup-gpg/

I moved to a Thinkpad w541 with coreboot so I needed to set up my email encryption on Thunderbird again.

It took me more time to reconfigure it again - as usual - so I decided to take notes this time and create a blog post about it. As this might be useful for somebody else โ€ฆ or me in the future :-)

@adamsdesk For the fsf europe fellowship card I don't know. I got my card 8 year ago from floss-shop.de. (I live in Europe/Belgium BTW ) You can check with them if they ship to Canada.

But the setup should work with any GPG compatible smartcard. I'm also looking at Not sure if nitrokey is available on your side of the ocean ๐Ÿ™‚

is also a option:

But I lean more to nitrokey as I have the impression that they're more active in the opensource community

As belts tighten, corporate evolvesโ€”further and further from the ideals of Free Software.

Partly due to bad actions by "freeloaders," but also companies putting too much value in building code, and not enough on community and support. https://www.hashicorp.com/blog/hashicorp-adopts-business-source-license

@geerlingguy

This isn't new had similar licenses before they switched to a opensource license.

This just showed how old I'm :-)

It are difficult times for companies that develop But this isn't a good decision IMHO. In the long term opensource will win as it allows users / multiple companies to work on the same product, So it's sad that HashiCorp is changing its business model.

@dwarmstrong

I installed 2 ssds and use to select the boot ssd..

So edk UEFI is the boot manager. I'll create a blog post about the installation on the w541 when I find some time.

    The first error is to ask AI or use "photoshop" to update the photo. Employers/people need to accept how you are, No AI needed. Or a real "smart" AI should have answered this ๐Ÿ™‚

    "Diversity is human strength" something that we (people) still need to learn...

    @glitzersachen @renwillis

    Yep, I agree but why not just make a real picture?

    Still odd that IA makes an Asian person "white". So something is wrong with IA learning...

    But probably also with our society. :-(
