i'm pretty sure this isn't illegal (this is happening on an imac pro which, last i checked, is "apple-branded hardware") but i'm also pretty sure that it should be

i wonder what apple's akamai bill is each day

"it's like uber, but for holiday nights in busy urban environments"

what's something small and cheap that can do wireguard at 1gbps?

apparently pop os 20.10 is no longer supported. that makes sense now that it's already uhh, 21...... oh wait no

i think due to a strange twist of fate, running monterey in kvm in a virtualbox popOS vm on catalina on my imac pro is actually allowed by cider daddy

when pc hardware is half as good as mac hardware i'll think about switching to a computer that's only half as good. until then, we wait

"Every major-numbered release of macOS is more annoying than the one before. Each release includes terrible new UI decisions, removes useful features you've come to depend on, and restricts the use of your computer as a general-purpose computer even more. It has probably been steadily down hill since OSX 10.8."

He's right.

per the dsmos haiku, apple thinks i'm stealing because i run VMs.

i'm beginning to get annoyed with this company.

hmm popOS identifies itself by phoning home to

hmm the latest pop OS installer phones home on startup.

There is no way to install macOS 12.x Monterey (released yesterday) without an internet connection. If you have an offline M1 mac and you hook up a USB with the full 13GB installer .app on it (created with the ./createinstallmedia tool from it), even when you specify --downloadassets, it cannot be used to upgrade an airgapped machine.

There's now no way for me to know precisely what OS is running on my computer. And I just gave these pigfuckers $6.6k for a new one. :(

sometimes i wish that the antivaxxer lies about the government going door to door to collect and gas or otherwise malign the resisters would come true. covid only knocks about 1/1000 of the infected off.
