  1. https://firmware.intel.com/sit... OS X /macOS has been IFI /UEFI for Decades so if you need a UNIX for Intel UEFI.... Look no futher/

  2. Hopefully Coreboot will be more widespread by then and UEFI can just be a compatibility layer on top of Coreboot.

    FYI: https://eshop.macsales.com/gui... Plue Safari /Security, URFI and major Apps back to Lion (10.7.x) 64 bit

    Very true.

  5. When they say finished data center cabinets for their other data centers, I assume that means with all of the hardware already installed, ready to be shipped to one of their data centers, installed, and powered on. I doubt it means an empty cabinet. The empty cabinet is one of the parts, along with all of the various hardware and networking components.

    Damn man; you must be new here.... You are making too much sense. Stop Making Sense

  12. This is FUD, plain and simple. Implying that Apple is as bad (or even close) as Microsoft is disingenuous. A big fuss was made when Spotlight searches were sent along with a rough location estimate to Apple, who used the data (without the IP address) to execute a Bing search. This functionality can be turned off very easily in Yosemite and El Capitan. There is no massive phoning home in OS X like what occurs with Windows 10. The Spotlight search really isn't any different than the "controversy" over searches in Ubuntu.

    Apple has the problem of being highly visable with any problem with there devices. Apple users are picky and there are a bunch of haters who are willing to exploit any issue.

    So true.

  17. As with virtually any apple device, there will be a $75 piece manufactured for 85 cents that will be a lightning to headphone jack connection.

    As with the other lightning connectors, if you plug it into your mac it will crash when it wakes on sleep.

  22. Re:Millennials and "codes of conduct". on Google As Alphabet Subsidiary Drops "Don't Be Evil" · · Score: 1

    To many Millennials, a "code of conduct" isn't something to help keep social interaction civil. It's actually a weapon that they use against those whom they dislike.

    Power corrupts. It's always been true, and it's still true. That's why a focus on personal and consensual choice, "your right to swing stops at my face", and liberty in general is needed to keep the error rate down to a dull roar -- just about every committee or action of a legislature is an act of exerting power. Far too often, that power is inappropriately construed, far too often that power is inappropriately applied. Classing is another wielding of power that consistently proves to be used as a means of harm and revenge. I can think of numerous examples in the technical realm, from ridiculous and irrelevant "certifications" to college degree requirements regardless of your knowledge and experience, to portions of the GPL.

    As for millennials, this didn't start with them, not even close. As a 60-year old fellow, I could go on for pages with accurate stories about social codes of conduct that were (and in many cases still are) used as attempts to bludgeon people into compliance with everything from superstition (by which I primarily mean various aspects of religion), to the red scare, to the 'Murica mindset, to the ridiculously exaggerated "sex trafficking" nonsense, to drug use and the drug war, slut shaming, gangsterism, terrorism, and so on. Seems to me that you're probably just finding the millennials more annoying because for whatever reason, their behavior has clashed with your outlook -- which is not to say anyone is right or wrong, just that there's an up-front conflict.

    Too true. +10

    The guy who posts "the purpose of updates is to slow your machine down" is cool, but the guy who posts a factual statement (El Cap has a lot faster UI rendering due to the use of the new Metal frameworks, big improvements in app launch times, etc.) is a shill.
