Apple’s EFI embeds an older version of wpa supplicant, possibly you are trying to connect to a network with a newer encryption standard like WPA3. I don’t that’s too unreasonable f…

I doubt you are going to fit a chip fast enough to snoop Thunderbolt traffic inside of a usb-c plug

Possibly off-topic, but for people that play with old UNIX operating systems, what do you run on the OS?

Yeah I have to use Zoom for work, but I wrote a little script that installs it without the background services and privileged helper tools https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jamesy0…

> Why is Safari allowed to send me notifications begging the user to boot it up and try the new features? For what it's worth I've been using macOS (and OS X) for 14 years, and you…

Just let me have JIT! My jailbroken iPad Pro can emulate Wii at 4k without getting warm. Unfortunately you have to hack around enabling JIT on newer ios releases.

What exactly is the selling point of the Power ISA? Why would I want to use it over RISC-V?

This is the type of content I come to HN for. Thanks for the insights.

I'm pretty sure the requirement is that the hardware is an Apple Mac, I don't remember macOS being your Hypervisor a requirement. ESXI supports running macOS on Apple Hardware (it …

The new blurred one hurts my eyes, it's a weird effect and I don't like it.

As someone who just finished school, I’m trying to figure out how to get genuinely interested in mathematics. I’ve never been particularly strong at it, yet I’m planning to enter a…

It's a real shame sandbox-exec is deprecated.
