  1. Re:So turn it off on The 'App' You Can't Trash: How SIP is Broken in Apple's High Sierra OS (eclecticlight.co) · · Score: 4, Informative

    Turn what off? SIP? You can't, there is no option to disable it. It's always on as part of Apple's continued effort to boil the frog until no one notices OS X is now iOS X.

    You can, but I wouldn't recommend it. Just use the kextunload command to turn off a kernel extension, it can then be deleted.

  2. Re:does apple need an installer / uninstaller syst on The 'App' You Can't Trash: How SIP is Broken in Apple's High Sierra OS (eclecticlight.co) · · Score: 1

    It has one. It uses packages, similar to many other UNIX systems. However, there is no enforcement for apps to use them and there is no default package manager. Frankly, I avoid packages since they can do things like install kernel extensions.

    Use the kextunload to unload a kernel extension. It can then be deleted.

  4. Re:Same Ol' Argument... on It's So Cold Outside That Sharks Are Actually Freezing to Death (vice.com) · · Score: 1

    No... WARMING is climate, as in "on average". It accounts for extremes, where we get both the coldest and the hottest weather on record.

  5. Hah! I get it... on Trump's Website Is Coded With a Broken Server Error Message That Blames Obama (techcrunch.com) · · Score: 4, Insightful

    It's funny because Trump has spent one day in four on a golf course. Or is it not supposed to be irony?

  6. It works well, even has a shortcut tile to YouTube so you just launch and click to get to it.

  7. Theaters shouldn't care... on MoviePass Adds a Million Subscribers, Even if Theaters Aren't Sold on It (nytimes.com) · · Score: 4, Insightful

    From the theaters perspective, it's just a debt card. They get the full ticket price. What people should be asking is how MovePass plans on even breaking even, much less making any money. It seems like they're doing the "I'll sell you this crummy quarter for that shiny dime" thing...

  8. Re:I love the GPD pocket on The Year in Crowdfunded PCs: Who Succeeded? Who Failed? (zdnet.com) · · Score: 0

    Thing is... the "GDP Pocket" isn't really different than all the other GDP pocket sized computers. Far as I can tell, it was just using crowd funding as a marketing method.

    Do unto others as you forbade them doing unto you!

  11. That's why I write all my error messages to say "new database, who dis?"

    Floors be COLD in the morning yall...

  13. Re:Yeah... they're pushing alternatives kinda hard on Amazon Files For 'AmazonTube' and 'OpenTube' Trademarks As Fight With YouTube Gets Pettier (theverge.com) · · Score: 1

    Can go with FireFox now, seems a better choice than Silk.

  14. Yeah... they're pushing alternatives kinda hard. on Amazon Files For 'AmazonTube' and 'OpenTube' Trademarks As Fight With YouTube Gets Pettier (theverge.com) · · Score: 1

    My FireTV is quite instant that I install FireFox to watch YouTube... which I guess is a work around for now, but it means I can't control YouTube from my phone like I'm used to. Seems like no real winners when massive monopolies fight.

  15. Re:I work for Sinclair. on FCC Hits Sinclair With $13 Million Fine Over Ads (axios.com) · · Score: 2

    I'm hourly and I hope this doesn't affect my bonus.

    Well... if tax breaks create jobs, it's only logical that fines destroy them. So you'll be fired.

  16. Just imagine the malware you could write in Python!

    The trash can mac doesn't count. Ah well, guess Apple doesn't want my money any more...

  18. So if they DON'T promise not to... they can? on FCC Explains How Net Neutrality Will Be Protected Without Net Neutrality Rules (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 4, Interesting

    Not really seeing an up side to this nonsense. Am I crazy, like the voices tell me, or am I missing something?

  19. So who's buying the bitcoins? on Bitcoin Futures Surge In First Day Of Trading (npr.org) · · Score: 4, Interesting

    Can't figure out the buy high, sell low thing that seems to be going on. Could it be the Chinese using Bitcoin to get their cash out of the country now that they can't buy Seattle realestate? Or is it just run of the mill money laundering...

  20. I hate when mommy and daddy global monopoly fight...

  21. Bitcoin is like Pokemon cards... on 'Bitcoin Could Cost Us Our Clean-Energy Future' (grist.org) · · Score: 5, Insightful

    The only value they have, is the value you place on them. Sure, you can say the same about any currency, if you're willing to ignore governments. So you're ultra rare gold hologram charazard card might be worth a lot today (lets pretend those words make sense), but you're a fool if you think that will be the case tomorrow. Just look at Beenie Babbies.

  22. SOMETHING has to slow down the German economy before they own us all. Chasing out all technology would do it.

    The alternative is Firefox. Seems Google doesn't want us using their browser anymore, and who am I to argue with them.

  24. Re:DIY Cryptocurrency Mining... on Bitcoin Hits $10,000 Because Ceilings Are Just a Construct, Man (gizmodo.com) · · Score: 5, Funny

    If you want mine your own crypto currency, you need a motherboard with 19 PCIe 1X slots to plug in 19 GPUs and a couple of 1200W PSUs.

    And an extension cord to steal the electricity from your neighbor.
