“I’ve heard somewhere that they’ll require a constant api calls from each system to an external verification system that is even paid”

or what? you can’t use the software store? most of the stuff on there is open source and you can compile it yourself

if it comes down to it you can just compile your own kernel that doesn’t do that.

what about airgapped systems?

It just doesn’t work

You could just put a fake date in at user setup from what I understand. It adds the field to the user database but there isn’t any verification that that date is true

Oh well if Dessalines says so it must be true
