8gb on a apple is not enough and its not surprising at all. Source: dealing with dozens of Mac devices with 8gb memory that clients had which all can't handle their workloads. I've…

Adhering to robots.txt is merely a courtesy. Much like a trolley drop off at your local shopping center car park. Some users will adhere to it and drop their trolleys in after thei…

Also signals spam folder isn't open source on server side. They literally have code that reads your messages and checks if spam or not and you cant see what it does or how it's wri…

Lol your no different as a coder to any other employee in any role on any jobsite. If a business owner can replace you with tech for less, they will. Unionizing won't save you from…

That's because most of the engineers or coders in this thread are in fear their job won't exist in a few years and they will have to go learn a completely different skill to make a…

Use Firefox on pc and on Android phone. Install ublock, live life ad free.

Oh don't get me wrong. UniFi and central management can be great if your on actively managed IT infrastructure. That is to say, you pay someone a monthly fee to keep your stuff con…

This in itself is a nightmare. I recently hacked for a client their Unifi controller db on a network. It had been setup 5 years ago and the company that did the setup didn't hand o…

I was a spicy meatball before social media even existed. It's why it took me 7 years to complete the last 30% of my two degrees. I got bored and went and worked full time in heavy …

He who controls the spice controls the universe. Honestly can't wait. Feed me info in dopamine adjusted methods. My spicy meatball brain finds old methods boring af and an absolute…

Lol you talk the talk but don't walk the walk. You said it yourself, you might tell people they aren't green but you still mostly use their products. This is what most folks do. Th…

A good way to temp check your traditional Woodfire pizza oven is when the black soot on the inside of the dome turns white. Which is at temps around 420c aka 800f. You should be ab…

Currently looking at moving overseas. Live in aus and the place is politically an authoritarian corprotocracy with unaffordable living even on a decent wage. Looking to get out. We…

Eh it's not actually you that needs to change all that much but more industrial processes need to be change. E.g. I worked on a exploration drill rig that hunted gold core. We burn…

Rip America. China and russia are gonna love this. Astounding they have elected a literal criminal as a president. Bonkers even.

Either way the inbuilt update system had zero way of updating itself or the OS to something that worked and it resulted in a painful few hours of stepping the system up through var…

Well given it was both the update app and the web browser, not just the web browser. It's definitely built in. Unless their app updater/software updater is just safari with an over…

Because the client is >55 in age and isn't a fan of change. They want what they are used to. Other clients who are more open to learning definitely and have in the past gotten linu…

GaN has been getting HUGE in the audio realm, less so in western companies but in Asia in the PA realm its been the go-to for a few years now. Admarks AD442(4x4200w @8ohm) and AD60…

I factory reset a 2012 Mac book pro that was needed for a client to use to check emails and use the web browser. Device was instantly blocked by Apple from accessing most websites …

15gb on the free tier...empty your emails folks. This madness of keeping every email is insane. I had a user with 60000 unopened emails on one account just 2 weeks ago. It's like s…

Apples constant push for subscription icloud data storage is predatory at best. The amount of users/clients I come across with devices way out of date re software/security patches …

Lol I've never seen any of that and I've been pushing 11 to clients since it got out of the dev previews. I find 11 way more stable than 10 ever was. Less bsods and all.

I'll probably start offering Linux to business clients. 90% of mine just need an os with a web browser these days. The 10% that don't I'll push to migrate to cloud offerings of wha…

Man printing is broken on macs I've had a handful of callouts for exactly that lately on a ramge of different macs. Same with print from iphones. Broken, and when it breaks you get…
