At the end of the day it's just an option that users can easily choose to opt out of. As much as I would like them to default to and support DuckDuckGo instead (hell, it would be a match made in heaven if Apple were to buy DDG and make

Yeah, sure, you can ignore the fuses, but only if you assist the boot process using a jig and an injected payload. The stock Horizon kernel from FW 10.3 won't boot if your fuseset is for 3.1.0, unless you inject a chainloader which fak

And for those who stayed on the 4.1.0 fuseset (or certain versions below that) there are warmboot exploits available. So those who are able to "normally" boot those firmwares do not need to use AutoRCM (or an RCM-"jig")

What was the mistake? There are no options here anymore. You want an OLED? You're getting a smart OLED.

I'd argue the 2015 MacBook Pro was the best they ever released, but perhaps I'm forgetting something they changed between 2013 and then?

Only because there is only the WebKit engine available on iOS, it's not like the processor does anything special with regards to JS, if Apple opened up to using additional HTML/JS engines in iOS 14 it would be powerful for all the

100% agree. I had hopes for the 5.4" iPhone 12 changing this trend by being a high end device with a close to OG iPhone SE size. But it now looks like it will not be given the "Pro" title after all, and will instead be the bu

If they had actually delivered the Time 2 I think the smartwatch space would have looked very different at this time. I miss Pebble.

Do you have multiple screens active at one time? This is really only a problem when you have multiple screens, applications don't "remember" which screen they are supposed to be on, they just go to the "primary" scr

It sucks that you are having issues with your setup, but in general macOS is the king of external monitor support. Compare the experience with Windows for example, where disconnecting from your external monitors pushes all applications and

Not to mention mixed-DPI. Apple is the only vendor who actually handles HiDPI and mixed-DPI environments really well in my opinion. macOS can scale different parts of an application differently depending on which screen it is on. So if you

But perhaps the reason they have been so lax in enforcing that particular rule is because they know they are doing it themselves in their own apps, and didn't want to attract lawsuits? If so, now that they are introducing this new func

Depends on your definition of encrypted I suppose. Many laptop SSDs are technically encrypted by default, but unless otherwise specified use a default key to unlock the drive. Sure, they are still not encrypted in any meaningful sense by de

Can't the child just delete the app, do the deed, and reinstall the app? Or just disable the VPN temporarily for that matter.

Ah, yes, I've always found that to be a little strange. It is cryptographically possible for the server to establish to the client that it is who it says it is, just on a different IP Sorry for the confusion, I misread your initial com

But the key you are talking about the SSH client recognising is the server key right? Or did you mean after authorising your SSH client to connect to the unknown machine, and the key you were talking about was the identity public key? I ask

Never thought about it before, but that makes a lot of sense. The act of choosing to load another page might be enough for me to realise I should have gone to sleep about 2 hours prior.

I mean, if a mitm has your SSH server key, chances are you are screwed anyway.

Sure, and I do that, but most users will not, they will select Secure Boot and think that their boot is now secure.

I thought about that as well, can't we just load the WinBtrfs driver from the installer?

Except the same keys have been used to sign some EFI loaders from other vendors, namely Kaspersky Rescue Disk 18, so it isn't really as locked down as they would have us believe. https://habr.com/en/post/44623

To the point where I question the legitimacy of including stock coolers with such demanding processors. My own Wraith Prism is just sitting in the basement, and I don't see myself ever using it, unless something happens to my high-end

I completely agree with you, but it's very difficult to replace the 2.5" drive in recent iMacs, and Apples price for the SSD is unfortunately not $120. In my opinion the base included option should be a reasonably sized M.2 SSD, w

I've been saying this exact same thing about "Smart TVs" for so long. There really aren't options these days, if you want a good current-gen TV, you're getting a "smart" TV. The smart components in these w

Exactly, you can solve the dual-display problem via daisy-chaining a couple of DisplayPort monitors instead. Using Micro HDMI was a bad decision in my opinion.
