How does this work regarding Macos notarization btw?
- fragmede 5mo agoWhat does notarization have to do with that? You or ChatGPT or whatever download a signed and already notarized binary.
- torben-friis 5mo agoThat was kind of my question, whether it was restricted to downloading notarized apps (which is at least something) or whether they were circumventing that somehow.
- fragmede 5mo agoLocally compiled code doesn't need to be notarized, if that's what you're asking. Or a dose of xattr -d.
- dvt 5mo agoI was actually curious, on my Mac, it uses `gs -q -sDEVICE=txtwrite -o output.txt input.pdf` (not sure why I have Ghostscript installed, maybe Adobe?) to read a PDF, and on my PC it just rawdogs `pdftotext`.
