You must have never had to transfer WhatsApp on a new carrier and find out that the carrier MITMs your SMS and you cannot activate that way and you have to ask your carrier for that. Not common in the US or western EU I suppose, but there a

And I think not, because in countries with much stronger employee protections it works out pretty well. The biggest 'downside' is a smaller concentration of power and wealth because the risk/reward calculation is different. B

The free market is a joke and big companies will always win against individuals unless they get protected by law. They have more people, more time and more money. If you want to be an employer, you're the one taking the risks. Don&#x27

Regarding swap partitions: on virtualised systems (like clouds) this is rather easy since you can just edit EBS/LUN/whatever on the provider side, grow, shrink, add completely new ones without doing any of the classical disk manag

Not really, because even if it were that simple (get some people from "over there" and bring them "here" so things are now "better"), it's not in their best interest. Just like with politics, it's not

It is possible but inadvisable. A more realistic approach would be terminal + browser. Living in a terminal itself doesn't really mean much, as it strongly depends on your tasks. For things like number crunching or programming, it has

Well, that's just it, the foundations really haven't changed. We still use TCP and UDP, we still use Ethernet, we still use Linux (and Windows and macOS), we still have the pattern of an application needing a configuration stored

The people are in a different quality and time than IT used to be. We need more people, and the result wasn't more of the same, but widening the gradient of what is acceptable. It used to be that you can't get people fresh out of

This seems to be mostly a US American thing, mainly because of the same reasons BBM was a thing: lots of chats over SMS used to be a thing, and then chats over iMessage, which like BBM, you can only join if you have a device from a specific

You probably already have this. Nearly every ISP has been delivering home gateways with DHCP and DNS built in, and DHCP-registration into the local DNS cache. So <your-computer>.lan or <your-computer>.home are likely candidates.

It's more a policy issue than a technical issue. But security-wise, malware on macOS is definitely not a solved problem. There are very real differences between the pervasiveness of iOS (and iPadOS) exploits and on macOS. As for reason

With the amount of restrictions, custom add-ins and specific workflows, it wouldn't matter that much since it's not even inter-office-compatible. Documents that need to be shared externally are generally converted and exchanged vi

They probably would if they aren't allies with trade agreements. But they are, and I think you know this already.

I used an Akitio Node 3 with RX580 for years, works fine on macOS, Linux and Windows on both Thunderbolt 2 (reduced performance) and Thunderbolt 3. Only reason I stopped using it is because I used it less and had more use for it on Linux th

Those earlier macOS versions don't have the frameworks to run virtualisation with. There are some hacks (mackintosh-ish) that allow you to run very old Intel releases on non-ARM releases, those virtualise the CPU but emulate nearly eve

Yes and no. Similar in functionality, different in implementation. So you do get things like IOMMU etc. but you need a different software implementation to make use of it, even if only to use the different ISA and setup procedures. Imagine

That is correct. But lets leave the VMs for now. The hypervisors is where the problem is at, if a hypervisor has no release for a specific platform, you cannot use it, period. That is the problem with VirtualBox. There is no VirtualBox for

by oneplane 4y ago
I added some clarification. There is no VirtualBox on ARM platform. So you can't virtualise ARM on ARM with VirtualBox, because they don't make ARM compatible releases. But both VMWare and Parallels for example have made ARM on AR

UTM can use both native Apple Virtualisation and QEMU virtualisaion+emulation. The QEMU one can't make use of the M1/M2 Intel memory translation acceleration the same way native virtualisation can, but it can make use of accelerat

It seems there is some confusion of what this page is about or why it might be relevant. This is not about an end-user product to run desktop virtualisation, but it is a page for developers in the Apple ecosystem to programmatically make us

The Microsoft equivalent of this is SecureChanel and none of this has to do with signing keys or booting.

Why the "walled garden" flame bait? Just because Apple removes old drivers that were deprecated 3 major releases ago (because that's the last version where 5+ year old Macs were still shipping with AMD or Nvidia graphics) doe

Yeah, most of the M1 (and some M2) limitations seem to stem from the mobile stack where it's not "a PC but smaller" but the other way around ("embedded mobile, but now make it PC-sized"). They lack a whole bunch of

To be clear, I was talking about binary drivers supplied by AMD and Nvidia for the most common GPUs that are attached externally. Not about the fact that they were external. MacOS has built in drivers for plenty of GPUs, including AMD, Nvid

It works fine on Intel Macs with supported hardware, but after a bit no new updates came for newer GPUs and because the corporate relation between Apple and Nvidia got shot to the around the 8600/8800 GPU series debacle, the only eGPUs

It's definitely possible, but there are no drivers released by the GPU manufacturers. They may simply not see any benefit of making such an investment, and they might point a finger at Apple for not allowing them the ease of developmen

It's business-generated complexity, not complexity out of necessity. And I don't mean business made the complexity directly, but it's an indirect effect of trying to commodify developer jobs. If you have a job posting describ

I think it's very easy to not work there, just leave and don't go back. I suspect most people that stick around either don't know any better or do it for the money/status/whatever and not for the technology.
