A movie is not software. It can’t control the device you own.
Ha you have no idea. They use new BluRay releases to distribute key revocation databases that block your BluRay drive from decrypting disks with older host keys.
Edit: I suggest starting here if you want to know more: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Blu-ray
you can only run executables on the primary boot partition
lol
Have you tried asking ChatGPT or Gemini ?
lmao
Emergency thermal shut-off is a very common function in various pieces of computer hardware. And if throttling doesn’t help it should indeed shut down, rather than cause damage.
Two that I run for our little group outside the ones you mention are Space Engineers and Valheim
Edit: Space Engineers is a little annoying though, you either have to use some emulated / translated setup, (I think I saw some being cobbled together by others), or you have to run a Windows Server VM.
Yes there is also device managment for them. Our company uses Jamf. Not sure how it compares to AD group policies in power but some restrictions, settings and updates get pushed on the regular.
So much.
I have installed various pieces of third party software to fix some of them, but still, those are things I dislike about macOS.
No, instead I’m forced to use macOS at work.
And Microsoft Teams, which is terrible, but somehow still better than Cisco Webex, which we had before.
That was actually preinstalled by IT at my workplace! It’s a pretty nice little archiver. Seconded.
To make the desktop experience bearable: AltTab, Forklift, Rectangle, Ukelele, MonitorControl, Amphetamine, Firefox, Thunderbird, qView and duti to set the latter three up as the defaults.
As a package manager I’m pretty happy with nix-darwin, now I get all the CLI tools there, and what isn’t packaged, like wireshark for example, I get through my nix-controlled homebrew.
Coming from a Linux userland you might want to replace some coreutil packages with their GNU variants. I ran into one case where the GNU grep was much faster than the BSD version preinstalled in macOS for example.
What I haven’t found a good solution to yet is Filesystem support. Both NTFS and ext4 are missing. I currently have a Linux VM just for that. I think Paragon sells a driver, have been meaning to look into it more, but haven’t.
Edit: To be fair to macOS the App called Preview is a pretty good PDF reader in my view.
PS: If you ever need to use dd on macOS, be aware that there are /dev/rdisk handles instead of /dev/disk for the un-buffered access. Its significantly faster for dd shoveling.
PPS: You will probably have to turn off what they call “natural” scroll. macOS inverts the default for some reason.
when I look at Gnome I don’t doubt for a second where I want to be
Yeah me neither, from the other side, lol
I’m also not familiar with how these things work. But it looks like the problematic commit was reverted:
All these naysaysers in the comments here… It’s obvious you have to keep the development pipeline moving. Just because we have one free codec at the stage of hardware support now does not mean the world can stop. There are always multiple codecs out there at various stages of adoption, that’s just normal.
Not sure about the enconding

Did you misread? They wrote “the only reason left to boot from a DVD”, so the use case you replied with has nothing to do with the topic.
I scoured their website and they completely fail to explain what they are actually doing on a technical level. I assume it would probably be a GPON network, just based on the offered speed. Not the best type of fiber connectivity, but probably pretty normal for the USA market.
That said, single mode fiber is absolutely the way forward and if you replace the devices on the end it can scale almost indefinitely. So I would jump on the occasion of having some laid to your house.
They don’t have IPv6 and they don’t offer static IPs which both kind of sucks, but it might be acceptable: https://support.surfinternet.com/surf-broadband-fiber-faqs No data caps is good at least.
Concerning your question about the markings, they spell out their process on this page, it does include marking existing utilities: https://surfinternet.com/fiber-optic-installation-process/
For me things actually became easier when I got myself a native Linux install instead of Windows. But I guess it depends on your college.
The size difference is not significant. This is about the maintenance burden. When you need to change some of the code where CPU architecture specific things happen you always have to consider what to do with the code path or the compiler flags that concern 486 CPUs.
Here is the announcement by the maintainer Ingo Molnar where he lists some of the things he can now remove and stop worrying about: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20250425084216.3913608-1-mingo@kernel.org/
It’s quite cruel of that compiler not being happy until you’re exhausted.
Or they could just have been infected. Especially the ones on Windows 8, which has been EoL for over a year.
Same here. My workaround so far has been to put the windows that belong on the secondary to the “Keep Window on All Desktops” mode.
