Hrm, maybe over USB it's different because of the performance limitations, but my understanding was that SATA was lower power draw. Though maybe I'm wrong and/or potentially this differs on a per-drive/per-controller bas

The USB is limiting this so much there is no need to go with NVME over SATA, IMHO. I see the USB3 result for the "M.2 SSD" (I assume the author means SATA?) being ~30/MB but almost surely something is going wrong there. That

I don't know why I love the idea of this thing, but I do Maybe because it reminds me of my very first computer, a Tandy 1000HX, which also had a keyboard as its case.

There's very little information here and not much of it scientific... I suppose someone giving their personal anecdote is fine, but I feel like this post severely lacks substance

So far- have you found any particular methods to be the most effective? (Return postage envelopes with a form letter, online tools, other options) My grandma, who passed a bit less than two years ago is still receiving all sorts of junk mai

Look, I believe people can change, but how they've behaved previously, especially as recently as in the case (2 years ago) is relevant to now. Especially when the very arguments they are making- they were recently, actively working aga

Unless there's proof she's changed from then until now, I think it's a rather relevant proof of hypocrisy and that one should rightly doubt whether what she's saying now is just more of the same

Couldn't YouTube TV at least do what other providers and cable companies do- have different packages with different sets of channels? That + the DVR functionality/etc just might be enough to make it worth it to enough users instea

Apparently I should not have used the word forced because some people went full-boar pedantic about it unfortunately. It's forced in terms of "if I want to run Big Sur, I have no choice" (thought that was obvious). Not forc

I already use Windows on another PC, and while I don't love telemetry, the only reboots I get are during my scheduled "okay to install updates" hours which is at like 5am when I don't notice it. I'm not MS's bi

I don't think it's irrelevant to speak to the fact that the latest Firefox runs well on my 2013 iMac. Anecdotal, sure, but I'm tired of seeing the generic "Firefox is bad on macOS" complaints because I just don&#x

If I want to run Big Sur, it's my only legitimate option. So yes, if I want to continue to use macOS and want to stay on the latest release, then "having to upgrade hardware" is the only route. If you take issue with me calli

Just realized this is the first time my iMac will not support the next update (iMac 14,3)- if this list is exhaustive and not subject to change, that is. Due to other crashes and issues I had already been considering the switch to Windows o

Yes but Zoom was saying that E2E is something they want to offer for their paid users, but that they will not offer it for free users. I think it's relevant to the parent comment in that they were asking for more information about wh

I think there is no good answer for many people. I don't want ads (and will continue to block them) and I don't want to pay directly for news either. I have paid for news in the past and found that it wasn't worth it. Part of

I get 'watchdog timeout' kernel panics. For a while it was daily, since reinstalling OS now it's random. The issue is I use a far different system than most reporting the issue. I see mentions of macbooks, sleep, etc, but I&#

Agree. I was listening to something else which had reasonable volume and this absolutely blasted my ears at an uncomfortable level.

10.15.1 and then 10.15.4 both introduced random kernel panics on my iMac. Only way to solve was to reinstall MacOS on top of itself (via Recovery, kept files/apps intact). Still no idea what or why the panics would happen, or why the r

Another classic inevitable bait-and-switch situation where they offered too much for free to begin with and backtracking on that just seems to make things worse. No one wins.

I prefer native apps ALWAYS when possible as a user. I get that it isn't the direction the world is moving, and that's unfortunate. With all the computer resources in the world (tons of RAM, NVME drives, etc) it's still easy

Very true, especially when it comes to scroll bars and similar elements. While I do enjoy some "modern" aesthetics from time to time, the Win98 style UI just feels far more "productive", for lack of a better term. And as

It is rather amusing how this doesn't work in IE11. I'd almost be inclined to fork and make a version that does, just for the heck of it... for you know, corporate environments that need Win98-styled intranets :)
