Something similar happened with the macbooks a few months ago. Apple changed something in one of their services which made it impossible to open non-Apple applications and made the entire computer grind to an halt. After thirty minutes everything just started to work again for no apparent reason. Turns out that their service for validating application certificates went down for some time. Not sure if it’s related at all, but it’s still sad to see that our devices have become so dependent on phoning home that they can become unusable when the home is not picking up or answering incorrectly. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25074959 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25074959
