You unload the kernel extension, if not, boot into single user mode. How did the thing get there: you or your user installed it with an admin password. It's not a standard app that comes with OS X so there is no other way it got installed.
I cannot fathom the kind of world you must live in not to be able to see the bigger picture.
For example: I have a company that does trade in the US and the EU, the EU has laws protecting foreign and local tax income, they're horrendous to deal with, slow everything down and lop off 11% of the profit I make which is a cost that is illegal to recoup through my customers (there are certain laws making sure I cannot raise prices to absorb the VAT). That's been enough of a damper for me to stop servicing small customers within particular countries.
You're recommending the US does the same thing, introduce a VAT-type system where all profits that passes through the US (regardless of their origin) get taxed, I'm telling you from experience, a bunch of people will stop doing trade, not with the big companies, they can absorb this kind of shit, but the small business won't be able to compete.
They already release microcode fixes all the time. Microcode gets patched when the OS boots up and then is promptly 'forgotten', it doesn't get permanently written.
From what I can read it's actually every context switch, the kernel is forced to look into different address spaces. So for every interrupt (eg. a network packet) your computer has to dump it's CPU cache and re-read from RAM. This totally removes the benefits of L1-L3 caches on the CPU which these days can be ~30MB.
I'm much more surprised this can't be fixed in microcode, the entire CPU is run by its own "OS" since Pentium 1 the Intel CISC is just a translation to RISC so you should be able to patch it out. If not, it's not like the Pentium F00F bug anymore, these days we're using millions of CPU's per year, recalling even the last 5 years worth is suicide for Intel.
Yeah, so in theory it works but I've tried it, I can't get it to work. The kernel will literally block either the hid or the leak binaries from working, the bug may still be there but the kernel prevents it from working. But even on older kernels, the worst I got was a kernel panic, I never got root access or SIP to turn off on 10.12 or 10.13.
smart phone running Windows That's an oxymoron. I call Windows phones feature-phones because they have a handful of features but don't have any particular ecosystem associated with them for apps or app development.
I know they CAN but they also have to live with the consequences, hence why we have politicians, it's their job (although they often do it poorly) to think not just about what YOU find morally wrong or obscene but also what the consequences of laws would be. It's easy to say these tax-evasion schemes are wrong, but fixing it would limit all sorts of trade and/or rebase a lot of companies. We don't have the richest country in the world because we were nice in the past.
As you said, these are loopholes that are written into the laws. You cannot make something that is perfectly legal, illegal because you feel it is morally wrong. You fix the loopholes if there are any but by doing so you will also hurt a lot of import/export.
You have to think like a politician on this: would you like Google to pay their $10M tax bill or do you want your constituents to miss out on $100B in trade? Even if taxing everything (eg. a VAT) would only dip trade by 10%, it still would be more hurt than a few companies not paying $100M combined taxes.
It is, if you make enough money to pay the bank fees and you want to use a foreign transaction fees for every purchase you make. You don't open these types of bank accounts without at least retaining 1 attorney in each country and paying the fees on your banking in each of the countries.
Plus, how long do you WANT to wait on your paycheck to clear? It goes through at least 5 banks, with at least 2-3 weeks of time for each transfer to clear, you may be waiting 3-6 months.
It's worse than that. It's a local privilege escalation, already patched in macOS 13.0.2 via ROP and race conditions during logout/shutdown of the computer, it requires a LOT of luck and is very time sensitive for it to work, in my testing most of the time the thing will either fail or crash the kernel.
Hence with a good scheduler or cgroups the Linux kernel can put fair sharing limits on such operations (and good filesystems will optimize really bad operations away).
I tried Kubernetes and Docker this year, I went with Docker. Kubernetes is quite a bit more complicated to set up and has a LOT of minor inconsistencies and issues that make it hard to work with out of the box without loads and loads of third party tools (which are really workarounds).
Docker "just works" and although it has a few problems and is not quite as flexible as Kubernetes, they're actually working on fixing them. It for example comes without any built-in SPOF which for Kubernetes you have to figure out yourself (should I use etcd or zookeeper or something else).
All-in-all I think if you're used to working with "beta software" that is built to scale for "the cloud" then go with Kubernetes. If you need to simply set up a container with an existing (or legacy) software stack, Docker seems to be the way to go. Hence Docker, will not go away because enterprise users need it and Kubernetes will be the stack of choice for startups.
You're an idiot. A smaller phone is more efficient, less traces, less PCB, less plastic, more battery, hence also more recyclable, the phones still come apart for recycling which has to be done anyways and there is less waste vs a replaceable battery that has to have built-in electronics and a plastic case just for itself.
People buying knock-off brands makes no money for the OEM, thus the manufacturer doesn't see the demand. Obviously your focus is on what you want to sell and knowing what your customers want is a big thing. If people wanted replaceable batteries on phones, we would see those phones be the top sellers. They're not.
As a logical person, I wouldn't feel different about statistics and facts just because my family is involved. It's this kind of emotional uneducated reasoning that starts terrorist organizations like Al Qaeda and BLM
Amazon will just take your stuff back. Even better, most sellers donâ(TM)t even want to bother going through the return process and just give your money back.
Although Iâ(TM)ve found in many cases that the, cheap direct from China, is actually the item you are expecting.
The question is, how many people WANT a user-replaceable battery vs a thinner, lighter, more efficient and recyclable phone. How many people have ever actually bought a battery, even when they were user-replaceable, I've worked in a tech store, the ones on the shelves were the only ones in stock, it didn't move inventory and the occasional person that did buy it would buy the knock-off brand.
So why put the effort into logistics if virtually nobody buys them from you?

They've been trying for years though, this is nothing new, most state and federal justices, even the more extreme ones won't agree.

Racist! Some cultures are different, you should hire people based on skin color and gender, not based on facts and past actions.
If you canâ(TM)t yell fire in a theater, youâ(TM)ll let everyone burn to a crisp so you wonâ(TM)t go to jail?
Try yelling fire in a theater and see how many people die... seriously, try - nobody will die, nobody will even move.
Trump has free speech as much as you do. He canâ(TM)t fire anyone even as a President.
Any reputable news site will cover a number of Antifa cop shootings. There was one within the last 72 hours, look it up.
Well, they also styled their elections around preventing another Hitler and now they canâ(TM)t get rid of Merkel.
Nope, set up a "production" Docker Swarm environment between 6 hosts, 3 managers with an ancient GlusterFS system.
Hopefully Trump tries to, then we can be sure it wonâ(TM)t happen. At least one positive thing the current political climate can achieve.

You're comparing a $80 feature-phone with a full-fledged smartphone. It's a poor comparison but the market hasn't been conquered by Nokia either.
