I drive Arch btw™

He is a supply chain guy. He did a tremendous job on making sure you need for every single thing on an apple device either an adapter or a repair that cost more than the device itself. Since Tim took over, the only noticable succeful disruption from a technological perspective is Apples M silicon. The rest is old wine in new bottles. For the rest its upselling and people that are crazy enough to put 1200 dollar/euro down for a phone or an 8gbyte RAM Mac. And to be straight, I have no problems with that. But there might be a time where Apple ends up in that same corner.

As much as I am an AMD fanboy, we need Intel in this game or AMD will turn into Intel from a few years ago.

This happens when a MBA CEO ran an engineering company. Where did we hear that before?.. Something something Boeing.

You don’t get the most valuable company by selling a SSD. So, yeah a new Mac of course.

Opens chrome on a 8GB Mac. Sees lifespan of SSD being reduced by 50%. After 2-3 years of heavy usage SSD starts to get errors. Apple solution: buy a new one. No wonder they are 2nd/3rd wealthiest company on the planet.

Well I will sound like an old bore but throughout the nearly 20 years Firefox is out I never looked at anything else. Seen the rise and fall of Internet Explorer seeing the rise and fall of chrome.

Even Firefox in its dreadfully slow era (2010-2016) it did not made me change. And let me be clear Firefox is far from perfect. But for my use cases (privacy and security balance over certain conveniences) I would not change for any commercially backed Browser.

Moral of the story. It’s better to donate to Mozilla and enjoy the freedom of your browser than giving yourself in on the erratic behavior of the big tech companies.

You gotta be a special kind of sad to DDoS archive.org…

Dorsey isn’t that the guy who fell into the anti vacation rabbit hole and backed JRFK Jr ? I mean let’s be honest. If these guys are concerned then I am pretty sure it’s safe.

Or Jesus, since a heck alot of maga christians think he is the one

It’s clear this is a long in advanced supply chain attack. So this is for sure not a lone wolf thing. Parts of it were very thought through but just came comically to light.

Yes history shown the US has been doing naughty things revealed by Snowden but we can’t come to conclusions yet, since nothing is yet been proven (if it ever will be). Long story short blaming somebody (regardless who) makes no sense at this moment.

You have any source for this or is this your (robotic) trolling (algorithmic) opinion ?

For sure. It’s basically a NAS software appliance. You just need to bring your own x86 hardware. Truenas core was good, but they will stop actively developing soon in favor for scale.

I have it running both hardware (backup) as well as virtualized (with a special sas/sata card as PCI pass thru). Works like a charm.

Not to mention the sheer amount of security vulnerabilities they constantly have in their products. I never recommend QNAP for that reason. Out of the box solutions I only recommend Synology. Selfbuild route is uraid and my personal fav. Truenas scale.

For only 799. I have the feeling with nVidia’s current tailwind, prices will not be mild.

Only reason I would imagine being this to the public is because they lost access or gained what they needed to gain and can show it off now. in any active breach as the actor performing this, you want to be as quiet as possible. Because to quote Kali. The quieter you are the more you hear.

Pity they published it. Imho this should kept under the radar as long as possible, like with the enigma machine code breaking.

Not all heroes wear capes.

Every year, around Christmas I donate to a project that I use a lot. Also some projects more than once (wikipedia, Signal)
