Interesting choice; Mavericks is the one OS that Apple pulled from distribution and hasn’t provided a signed updated installer for. It has known security vulnerabilities and a few showstopper bugs.

It’s the OS I would have settled on except for the number of things that are broken in it.

So instead, I settled on El Capitan with a Snow Leopard image for non-Internet things. This runs on my x86 Mac hardware; for my PPC Macs, I dual boot between OS 9 and 10.4.

Anything else happens under emulation.

But… he hasn’t said anything we didn’t already know, and now that he’s done, it’s back to “business as usual.” So what exactly was gained?

It specifically says Triangle Rewards wasn’t affected; that’s separate from Triangle e-commerce, which includes the web stores for the listed companies.

Probably an A/B thing.

You don’t fluff your pillows or make your bed or wash the linens? Bed stuff needs daily maintenance; hopefully flashing the firmware on your smart pillow wouldn’t be daily, but you want to keep the bed bugs away, Shirley?

The bigger catches with most of the smaller cars is that they wouldn’t pass an NHTSA inspection. Of course, if big cars didn’t exist, they might — but there’s lots of commercial vehicles on the roads that aren’t SUVs or pickup trucks that still might collide with a lightweight vehicle.

We have made sure that Alba can no longer threaten, intimidate, or exploit its workforce.

I somehow doubt that. Construction/demolition companies have been doing those three things as long as they’ve existed.

This round just cost them a bit of their profits.

I was going to make a comment about cheap Chinese cars, but then I checked the BYD price list, and the Dolphin is the only car they’re offering for less than $50k. The rest are a pretty even distribution between 50 and 100k pre-add-on fees and taxes and trims.

Not really. MAD assumes you have people on both sides who don’t want to permanently destroy the land.

With the religious right in charge of both Israel and Iran, both sides are perfectly happy to destroy the entire world in pursuit of a better afterlife.

This is one of those reasons that the separation of church and state is so important.

People need to follow this up with dumping tariffed goods into Boston Harbor.

When I went to university, some professors were just starting to distribute material in postscript; TeX was brand new technology. PDF had just been accepted as a standard. The world wide web was still mostly local to NCSA, and Gopher was the preferred method of distributing electronic academic material.

Today? There’s no reason not to use PDF or ePub. There’s less and less that should require a trip to the library unless you’re studying pre-turn of the century literature of some sort.

The likes of Elsevier and HarperCollins Education should not exist in 2025. But they do, and so here we are.

Yes; the bigger question is: has Friendlybirdseggs heard of capitalization or abbreviation?

Because that’s when you have the time to do the maintenance.

Only if you have hardware that can handle it.

Don’t run Windows 11 on ARM.

But they put other people on those rockets, not themselves.

It shows how durable their product is… when stored in an enclosure designed to protect it. The SD card probably didn’t even experience an increase in air pressure.

Finally! Meta does something for the good of humanity!

YET?

Who’s Asap?

AI data centres are usually about giant LLMs and agentic bots. “Ai” as in machine learning doesn’t need giant data centres and has been progressing quite well without them.

The term “AI” tends to get thrown around to claim all the benefits of the entire field to excuse the excesses of a very narrow slice.
