Hackintosh allows you to have OS X on better hardware but these days it's really unsafe, due to the possibility of Apple going full ARM in the near future, dropping all the support for x86.

Google makes it even harder, as if you wish to delete a credit card, you have to login into a website version of the part of Google Play which manages them; yet, you still need to leave at least one cc number there. I deal with this by usin

No, you aren't. I also see it as distraction, which is even worse to programmers who have to keep laser focused on their work.

It would be nice and time saving to have a book documenting thoughtfully these issues.

An interesting note that I often like to bring is that one might not catch the entire idea of "There's no free lunch". Follow with me. People need to eat in order to stay alive; therefore people will often spend a part of the

Kind off-topic but related: sometimes I wonder how web development would be if Lisp had somehow won as standard, since we can use to do everything the stack HTML+CSS+JS+Backend-language does, in addition to standardized syntax and standard

I have a personal belief that if something can be gamed for power, it'll be gamed for power. It's not a possibility, it's just a matter of time. No-go for mass censorship devices.

Is there any CVE on it published already? It'd be very funny if yes or if someone publishes one following Vim's.

I'm not only conflicted. I'm annoyed. Immigration is being sold as a solution to aging and shrinking population. While opening to immigrants certainly helps solving the shrinking workfoce problem, it is nothing more than a duct ta

That would be a sad but funny epilogue to this history: trap laden phones, designed to keep their owners away from any diy repair dreams.

One of these days, I took some time to analyze network traffic going out of my phone. I wanted to know what was happening behind. I learned that some apps that I wouldn't think of, such as banking, ISP and credit card, were tracking me

Low power and very pleasing to read. The Web could be a nicer place if more websites followed this design. I personally found the "email to comment" charming.

Typing on Windows Phone was a delight, for a touchscreen-based keyboard. They had their typing game on point. Now with an Android device, I find myself switching keyboard software often.

I wonder how one can be genocidal without having killed anyone, homophobic without having persecuted LGBT, racist without having defended racial thesis. Has Bolsonaro said ugly reprehensible things ? Yes he did. But that is his opinion at b

That being said, I wonder if it's a good idea to extend KeePass to generate full credentials for given website.

I'm finishing my degree, haven't dealt with hiring yet but, god. Couldn't everything be easier if one could just say he wants the job for the money and wants to do a really good work for every cent? Modern society is getting

Funny thing is that the only way you can achieve this is by installing free, open source operating system. >Is my money not good enough for them? This is getting absurd Yeah, this is surreal.

One thing I'd like to see added to freebies discussion is the meaning behind of the word 'free'. For example: 'College education and healthcare /should/ be free for all in this country(USA).' really means

Actually, it isn't impossible. You don't need to invade the entire land, you just need to bomb a few targets. A nice chunk of China's population and structure is distributed across China's shores. If you take a look at p

Laptop and notebook comes to mind. Maybe English does have this mechanism but to a less extent? Interesting enough, Portuguese also does compounding to some extent (Bear in mind it's a romance language). My favorite English feature is

Unbelievable. That's a truck load of money from my point of view as i'm living of 1200 usd/year (initiating researcher grant) with government subsided food.

I particularly support legalization to full extent of any recreative psychoactive drugs, even ones deemed evil. Drug users are often more vulnerable to external factors not related to the drug itself, such as bad drug quality (drugs mixed w

I started to use third-party twitter clients exclusively because of the annoying timeline manipulation. Now this. Is there any other way around other than quitting twitter ?

Bear in mind that discussions about Chinese matters may be rigged by the 50 cent army. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/50_Cent_Party
