We see it differently. Exodus is useful in this capacity as much as any other, similar base os image or not for preventing overwriting.

I can appreciate the work to shrink the image, but copying the various standardized CLI tools and related library files into the image versus installing them with APK can introduce _many_ compatibility challenges down…
Tons of them, why? Lots of QNAP apps are written in python, django, and use sqlite.
Fantastic to see this project... hopefully they'll remove all the enterprise cloud and MDM related requirements for using various browser policies (MetricsReportingEnabled,EnterpriseRealTimeUrlCheckMode, etc) along with…
This seems like it takes something simple and makes it much more complicated with the aim of making it simple and then fails on all counts. For example, how is this different/better than simply using version controlled…
Twitter will be fine. The only people going to threads are virtue-signaling losers that won't be missed anyway.
Sad to see your company going away. Your boxes were great for hosting Plex servers. Grats on the sale either way.
That's a shame, I was hoping YouTube was going to go all-in with their ad blocker bans at the same time since I would have been hit by that too. The amount of time I've gotten back from no longer wasting time reading…
In my experience, a lot of millenials that constantly talk about traveling and how it "fulfills" them are generally trying to replace that empty feeling not having kids has left them with. It's a biological imperative,…
Good looking out, I was going to cancel the other day and losing access to all my audiobook content WAS the impression I got, which caused me to hesitate. After reading your comment, I've gone and cancelled and yep,…
Agreed, though I combine using Little Snitch with Radio Silence: https://radiosilenceapp.com Little Snitch is great for when I want hyper granular control of a specific app's network permissions while Radio Silence…
That's fine, so just make it a right-click menu service item versus automatically enabling it globally for every image across the entire OS by default for everyone. I know lots of security folks who find it useful…
CloudFlare already has it's hands on unsettlingly large amount of global internet traffic, so why Apple would think anyone would be ok with them also seeing VPN traffic without user consent is beyond me.
> iirc Private Relay doesn't get enabled automatically at all? That's incorrect, private relay -did- get enabled automatically on all my machines without my express permission or consent. Same goes for the "hide my…

It's already happening for years now. Just look at Stadia.
Jeez, could they have possibly given less notice? Now I have to scramble to migrate all of my domains away from Google/Squarespace this weekend. Damn it. I have zero desire to be in business with Squarespace.
> an incredibly safe vaccine yeah, i'm going to need you to prove that statement by showing me the standard 10-12 year safety studies available for those "incredibly safe" mRNA vaccines.
So the solution to the banking collapse is to create even MORE too-big-to-fail monopoly banks? The corruption has gotten so far out of control at this point it's laughable.
Not that hard to believe when you consider the hardware specs for Apple machines are so heavily locked down to a very specific set of mobo, cpu, and only variability in core count, ram amount, hard drive size, etc. It's…
For a sizable segment of Apple's power users, this is really the core issue. Apple clearly has no love for power users for over half a decade, and thinking of going to windows after MacOS is a nonstarter, which really…
Man.. I really miss Steve. He never would have let this bastardization of the desktop machine operating system happen. The only thing consistent with every new macOS release at this point is the removal of more features…
