There's a nice script that will set up a bunch of feeders and run a web interface: https://github.com/jprochazka/adsb-receiver

Yes, they've added an interface for this. The latest tech preview of VMware Fusion is using this interface rather than their own kext: https://blogs.vmware.com/teamfusion/2020/01/fusion-tp20h1-in...

Kernel extensions being deprecated is not news (it was announced at WWDC). The only real new info in this post is that 10.15.4 will pop up warning dialogs when loading the certain types of kexts that have replacement APIs available.

This is not accurate. This version of Wine can’t run 32-bit Windows apps on 10.15, but 64-bit apps do run. Also, CodeWeavers CrossOver can run 32 and 64-bit apps on 10.15.

I think it's just low supply. They were quite expensive so not that many existed to begin with, and then the last generation of SGI MIPS machines were largely cleared out by companies and academia in the mid-late 2000s. Anything left f

I missed that when it happened, too bad. OpenBSD's sgi hardware support is much better than NetBSD's (although that I guess the reason is that they used an Origin 350 for builds, but the disk controller driver had a bug causing lo

Seal Beach still has an original red car set up as a museum right next to Main St.

Ah, well at least it's using Microsoft's pre-existing AutoUpdater (the same one used by Office if you don't get it from the App Store)

Maybe to install an autoupdater?

At least this only affects Windows 10 (as far as I can tell)

The San Diego store (in Mission Valley) also started out as an Incredible Universe, Fry's had also bought their delivery trucks but never repainted them. Even 10 years ago, I would still see Incredible Universe-logoed trucks delivering

Boeing still may rebrand the plane and stop calling it the MAX, as you say it was only ever a marketing name. The plane is certified as the “737-8”, “737-9”, etc.

The police can't be in every store all the time. Presumably the police did show up and file reports about these crimes, but when a shoplifter is running away and the window to catch/arrest them is <60 seconds, I don't know

I suppose you should never blindly trust the competence of an ISP-provided router, but I would expect it to automatically block all incoming IPv6 traffic unless you explicitly add forwarding rules. You can always enable v6, then see if you

True, it does look like Apple provides support for the current and last two releases. 10.12 Sierra got its last (ever) security update at the end of September.

Yep, deprecated in 10.14 in favor of Metal. I expect it to be like OpenGL, where the existing functionality will stay around in maintenance mode for years to come but never improved. https://developer.apple.com/library/

Makes sense, given that the underlying drivers only support macOS 10.13 (which is likely considered out-of-support by Apple now)

You can buy permanent licenses of Office 2019, it’s $250.

Me three. I'm even seriously considering having Apple replace the battery in mine (it was swelling a few years ago)

Can you point to evidence that Apple is rejecting anything from being notarized? I haven't seen any. And sandboxing is completely orthogonal to the fine-grained revocation that notarization allows for. A sandboxed app could still be ma

And Apple has stated that they're fine with that: you can disable SIP and Gatekeeper. But for 95+% of Mac users, who only want to run software from reputable sources, these are good steps.

It’s worth noting that a patch around 2 months later removed the Equation Editor entirely, because more security issues were found and binary patching wasn’t going to be sufficient.

That's true, but a Super Hornet is an incredibly expensive platform to use as an aerial tanker. Quote from https://www.historyonthenet.com/carrier-based-aerial-refueli... : The Super Hornet has filled in the tactical t

I remember how bizarre that was at the time: Dell had stuck exclusive to Intel through the whole NetBurst era, despite AMD being superior. And then once Core 2 came out and Intel was back on top, Dell started selling AMD.

Last Friday afternoon he was replaced as chairman of the board. I suspect his Congressional testimony later this month will...not reflect well on him, and he'll be retiring fully in the next few months.

It’s more the 20-year old Carbon API set (parts of which are 30+ years old like QuickDraw) than x86 itself. Apple doesn’t get to drop x86 support from Intel’s silicon (like they did with 32-bit ARM on iOS).

In addition, adapters were available for all those steps: 12V to 5V charging, and the 30 pin to Lightning adapter. And on the software side, even the ancient iAP accessories are still working. I’ve seen 2007 car kits hooked up to an iPhone
