Modern applications for Windows (UWP) and iOS do use tombstones. The app's memory itself is completely suspended/saved to disk, and then the state is restored. The app startup code is _not_ called again.

You can test GNOME Web (Epiphany) just fine, which does use the same engine.

Yes, it's an officially supported use case.

There's Apple still, with WebKit. WebKit is open-source (LGPLv2) and used in GNOME Web (Epiphany) on Linux notably. (in addition of Safari on macOS and iOS)

It's for a different purpose. (as in mitigate to some extent security bugs) And isn't an Apple feature only but an Arm one. (that is only rolling out on Cortex with Cortex-A78C and A78AE) A paper on it from Qualcomm: https:/

That's the immutable kernelcache shipped by the machine, and isn't only the kernel but also includes the kexts. You can then rebuild your own kernel cache from /System/Library/Extensions and /System/Librar

I can assure you here that it works on some drives but not others because the boot chain on Apple Silicon Macs is written from scratch, not using UEFI. Bugs are being worked out slowly, and there's no reason to assume bad intentions he

On your M1 machine, the used kernel is /System/Library/Kernels/kernel.release.t8101. (for T810x processors, A14 is T8101 and M1 is T8103, both share the same kernel) The installation should be bootable by both, but not s

It's just a set of bugs here, because of it using a redesigned boot chain. The bugs will be fixed, just takes some time. Has nothing to do with trying to impose additional restrictions.

For my servers, I use Ubuntu so far. For more workstation/desktop machines, I use Fedora instead.

Windows on Arm64 machines are all UEFI + ACPI too. :-) (even for 32-bit Windows on Arm, back in the Windows RT times, this was the case. It's a shame that Microsoft decided to lock those down back then) On more affordable Arm machines,

All server-class Arm hardware works with UEFI + ACPI, as such using regular OS images. (mandated by Arm ServerReady SR/SBSA, you are not allowed to ship Device Tree there)

Fujitsu A64fx already exists, the threat is quite near. Arm on the server market is quite interesting too (Graviton2 and Ampere Altra today). And those are big cores. For a ton of little cores, looks less clear-cut for me because of the com

What would be the business model of a Chrome separate than Google? Google paying anyway to keep it alive through a search engine deal like Firefox? that doesn't remove the link between the two financially.

MacPorts meanwhile existed years before Homebrew, and is alive and well.

by my123 6y ago
Dependency management in Homebrew is nothing short of primitive or broken...

And MacPorts is what had/has Apple involvement actually.

No. MacPorts is so much better nowadays.

Eh, it's the Visual Studio Code repository. That's perfectly fine. (there's also Wolfram Mathematica on Raspbian images for example too, it doesn't have a goal to be explicitly made of OSS at all) And the server images a
