gollark: Also, you can. (EDIT: can install Opus I mean)
gollark: <@151391317740486657> If you can find a flaw in ECC I think you could also steal bitcoin...
gollark: If you have the private key, you can generate signatures for any startup. You don't, though. The stuff written onto disks *also* has a UUID embedded (on the more complex ones), which is part of the signed bit.
gollark: The signatures are programatically generated from the contents of the file and my private key. PotatOS has the *public* key, so it can verify that the signature was generated from the corresponding private key.
gollark: Um, no, that's not how it works.
