In addition, concentrated and extended exposure to the virus, like what you see in prisons where it is impossible to maintain distance between yourself and other inmates during meals and in bed, is known to affect people of all ages. Look a

All Apple provides us is correlation, so it's entirely possible (likely even) that the removal was incidental and driven by competing internal needs (like removal of wires, progression towards thinness). Materially it doesn't matt

Note, instagram is pretty trivial to scrape. I’m guessing that is the real target of these changes: removing unauthorized apis.

That’s all fine until they use this as an excuse to remove a drive, or a headphone port, or prevent you from changing the battery, and then refuse to admit they aren’t meeting the needs of their customers.

Does anyone use Apple email?

by monadic2 7y ago
I imagine access to your emails is what you would want anyway—these days it’s the strongest proof you have, stronger than ssn.

Why not? It’s not like they have any obligation to respond, and someone needs to point out the bullshit smell wafting through the room.

This is a silly semantics game and a boring one at that. the presumption that the words are contradictory, or that mathematics is a monolithic entity that plays a single role of invention or discovery, is a poor way of exploring the social

I really wish we could have greater control over these choices—the ones apple goes with rarely align with the way I would ideally use my laptop.

I can’t say I have a decent justification off hand myself—this was the impression I had when digging through a comparison of the two softwares about a year back. Cgroups appears to have a much more detail laden implementation, but this coul

LXC was only introduced in 2007. I wouldn't call ZFS a good comparison as I would also still consider it rather young in terms of basic unix technologies—depending on your needs, you could easily use some other simpler but older (and l

Hmm, I don’t follow the comparison. How could, for instance, the sun use “life” to generate more entropy than it already does?
834.
by monadic2 7y ago
I disagree with life increasing entropy; it does do that but it expels the entropy.

Why do these apps require installers at all? What are they installing—presumably any of their proprietary tech can run in userspace unprivileged. Personally, my best guess is because that’s the flow the product manager expected.
