Don't forget to go ahead and buy more Macs in the future. That will teach them
More Macs means even more "Trust and Security" traffic for Apple to handle. So, yeah, that'll teach them!

Re: macOS unable to open any non-Apple application
#682You've got to be kidding me. When Apple's servers are down, all Macs worldwide start freezing randomly? My XCode is hanging during builds, is this why? This code signing enforcement stuff has gone way too far. Heads should roll for this.
You need to set up your own DNS caching resolver and start selectively filtering out Apple domains. Pihole does that wonderfully. Ask your Apple geniuses whether they would help you setting it to make your Macs work.

#683sudo spctl --master-disable
Should disable gatekeeper. Have not verified with little snitch though.
Re: macOS unable to open any non-Apple application
#684Unbelievable. When I read the tweet (tried to post here as well), I suddenly realized why my Mac was unresponsive an hour ago. Here is another tweet that describes the problem in more detail: https://mobile.twitter.com/llanga/status/1326989724704268289 > I am currently unable to work because macOS sends hashes of every opened executable to some server of theirs and when `trustd` and `syspolicyd` are unable to do so,…
So yesterday I wrote about the blurring lines of ownership, and people came back with some fairly disparate responses. It's fair to say that I was mostly dismissed. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25058952 And this is why I won't be moving to Apple silicon. Apple already has the ability to restrict whats apps I can run (they can simply toggle a switch for all users to "no unsigned binaries"), and congrats! Apple…
> I'm trying to find a laptop with good build quality, long battery life, a good display that I can design on, a good trackpad
Sounds like you might want a Microsoft surface (or surface book).
Not sure about the TouchPad - but at least there's a pen for drawing on the screen.

#685Don't you love it the ability to compile and run software on your hardware is controlled by a third party over the internet? I sure love the SAAS future we are heading forwards.
I will be a full on linux junkie when that happens.
Are you sure?
It's happening piece by piece so that its preferable for most people to bear one more bad thing than bear the cost of switching.

My Huawei Matebook Pro has been everything I wanted in a Mac, in a way I couldn't get from Apple.
Pros that Macbooks don't have: USB-A (along with USB-C), no touch bar, 3:2 screen, can enable secure boot if I choose so feel like I'll be able to run whatever I want on it, replaceable SSD, etc.
Pros that Macbooks also have: still has a great build quality, full day battery
Cons that both have: Non replaceable RAM

#687Earlier quoted context omitted.
This applies to every Mac, with or without an update.
Not only Macs. “There is a high chance that something will be wrong with it” applies to almost all software of the size of modern OSes.
Yes, Windows 10 forced updates have broken so many things for me.
Re: macOS unable to open any non-Apple application
#688You all seriously should have spent the last 20 years helping us make Linux better. What a waste.
Sorry, I can't and won't work for free.

#689Earlier quoted context omitted.
I agree--I also de-googled within the last couple years. I also did it because I need my e-mail to always work, it's just unacceptable that Google could take it away with no reasonable recourse. I was also hit by this outage today, at work, on my work laptop, while I was working. Apple literally cost me time and my employer money today, because their lack of foresight or inadequate provisioning of servers or whatever…
What did you move your phone to, when you degoogled your life? Apple iphones seems even worse than Android, honestly.

NotebookCheck is a great website for laptop reviews. They even get into the nitty-gritty details of display calibration, input devices, power consumption, etc.
Here's a list of the laptops with the best displays: https://www.notebookcheck.net/The-Best-Notebooks-with-the-Be...
And here's a list of general multimedia laptops that would be roughly equivalent to a MacBook Pro: https://www.notebookcheck.net/Notebookcheck-s-Top-10-Multime...
