  4. Clever click-bait advertising: on Boot Camp Might Damage Speakers on 2016 MacBook Pro (digitaltrends.com) · · Score: 1

    Clever click-bait advertising:

    One of the things an Apple Mac can do that Windows 10 machines can't do -- at least easily and completely legally -- is run both Windows and MacOS. Interestingly, it's Apple's Boot Camp utility that makes this feat possible, which essentially enables Macs of all flavors to boot directly to Windows 10 and use the Mac as if it were a Windows machine. Usually, this is a fairly straightforward process that works well, with the resulting Boot Camp configuration doing fairly well at mimicking a Windows 10 machine with a few hardware limitations. As of the 2016 MacBook Pro machines,

    And the Bait after the Advert

    it appears that Boot Camp might be causing some serious and uncharacteristic audio issues. It appears that the new speakers running on the refreshed MacBook Pro line aren't working so well with the obsolete drivers provided in the current version of MacOS Sierra Boot Camp. Users are reporting the issue on all models of the 2016 MacBook Pro, and they are not experiencing the issue in MacOS. Virtual machines using Parallels or other software are also not experiencing the issue, providing more support of a bad audio driver causing the problem in Boot Camp.

    I understand /. needs to 'keep the lights on' but can it be done without completely selling out?

    Good for you. If you're happy I am happy.

    What I was referring to in my post was defining a search for opposing the rising minority power over the majority in regards to a very small segment of the Human condition.

    As one example:
    Creating an environment for abuse by perverts trying to get carpet permission to enter restrooms of the opposing gender for their own gratification.

    Also, how to keep kids from exposure to age-inappropriate concepts, leading to premature or inappropriate life choices.

    Etc.

    When entire communities are forced to endure perverts using any excuse they can to go into the restroom of the opposing gender when there are 'family restrooms' available for decades is not the definition of 'affects very few people'.

    Curious that your would leap to such conclusions when I referenced books to express a concept that I have trouble enunciating on my own.

    I was aiming for your thoughts on the subject, not an amateur psychiatric evaluation of myself. Perhaps I should have been more clear. I will accept blame for that one.

    The concept is potentially real, as people in the majority will indeed exert their will as they see fit. Even if it means grabbing life by the pussy.

    It must be awful to think there is a conspiracy of the new presidency to destroy human rights gains of the last 50 years because a bullish billionaire businessman won the election. When liberals break with reality of this magnitude ...

    You get my drift?

    Careful, your spin is showing.

    I referenced the science of the binary system of male and female in regards to Google searches that would help debunk the pseudoscience of transgender and gender-fluidity mental disorders and mutations.

    This has been an issue going back millennia. I believe in everyone's right to whatever they want. It becomes an issue when the extreme minority of androgen receptor mutations or congenital adrenal hyperplasia afflicted humans demand that everyone start accepting people to choose the fashionable gender of the day like changing a shirt, and expect the majority of the world to bow and scrape to their demands.

    Fuck that.

  22. Re:Biased question perhaps? on Google Search Results Have Liberal Bias, Study Finds (thedenverchannel.com) · · Score: 1

    what evidence is there that it's an issue?

    I see it in school children who come home and have pronounced that they have decided they aren't happy in their bodies at a critically young age when sexuality shouldn't even be a topic. I see a lot of these kids forced into it by activist parents or encouraged by their peers as the latest fashion.

    I see it in full grown men that should have been treated for prostrate issues instead of given hormones and surgically mutilated while leaving the real potential problem untreated and possibly leading to a mans death that could be prevented.

    It's one thing to be Gay, that's fine. I don't care. Bugger whoever or whatever you want. But leave the kids out of it. And leave it out of the streets. You don't see straight folk getting in your face and having parades etc.

    X and Y makes you male or female. If you aren't comfortable in your body then the problem is in your own head, and you need to take responsibility for it, not make everyone around you treat you like a special snowflake.

    I'm curious what did you expect to find?

    Links to forums or resources for the rational expulsion of mental disease being pushed onto young children in school.

    you'll likely see it founded by fundamentalists who have already decided that gender-fluidity is a problem

    If that's all that can get through the filters I would take it.

    I have read a lot of lines about 'the truth has a liberal bias', or 'liberal information tends to be science based', and I have to shake my head.

    Try googling for any information on how to 'combat the rise of gender-fluidity', or 'how to explain physiology is a binary gender system', or 'how to explain gender fluidity is a social construct' and you get Nothing, Zip, Nada, that isn't in support of this brand of mental disorder.

    Science based? Truth? Not even close. Everywhere you see sex that's outside a human social construct there's a male and female. Only humans social structure describes non-existent genders in liberal circles.

    Not a troll, or flamebait, but I have asbestos underwear on, and I can already feel the flames from the mod-activism firing up.
