Just a question as a non native speaker. Is the "hell yes" in the title considered slightly offensive? On par with "Damn LLVM" or something?

You can check the refresh rate as follows. Open System Preferences, then click on Displays. There's a radio button, titled "Scaled". Option-click that radio button, and you'll see a pull-down menu, titled "Refresh R

Absolutely all of them? You may want to look for some subtlety. There are coins with a specific purpose, for example Monero, that have a clear purpose which is separate from Bitcoin.

I make my money by doing internal projects for companies. These organizations run their own app store, or just force-download their apps onto all of their iOS devices. It's lovely to focus on one platform.

You will then be pleasantly surprised that the underlying Hypervisor.framework is used by Veertu in their Anka product. You can download and use it for free to virtualize macOS: https://veertu.com/download-anka-develop/

I think Virtualization.framework lays on top of Hypervisor.framework, which Apple has included since Yosemite (released in 2014). So while I can't refute your suspicions, they would have had the time to implement it from scratch.

I sense a bit of anger in your last sentence, "why does everyone". For new car purchasers, your solution is possible. For existing owners, that would mean a severe increase in cost of living.

This is Europe. There is no land to buy. Land has a specific purpose, for example business, agriculture, housing. You cannot just buy a small plot of land to park your car. It's simply not available. What you can do, is buy or hire a p

Yeah I wonder if there’s a good way to keep it updated. I found an older blog post that puts their updating in .zshrc but I feel there must be better ways. http://craigstjean.com/2016/02/Keeping-Homebrew-Up-to-Date
