News alerts just notified me that I'm included in a request for attorneys fees. Okay, so, back in late 2022, I was hired to serve as an expert/hybrid witness for a fraud class-action against #Apple, but when Apple found out, Apple flipped out & got me kicked off. Apple's response now to the motion mentioning me is apparently feigning amnesia & pretending they don't know who I am.
I was very excited to discover that my #whistleblower case against #Apple was featured in yet another article about how companies are not supposed to fire their employees in #retaliation for reporting crimes!
If any Apple devices within range of my house are going to report on the nearby BSSIDs, then the obvious solution is to set up a dummy AP and program it to change its name every 10 minutes. #apple#wifi#security
Setting aside the fact our tech has been getting smaller and thinner for decades so I don’t really understand this question, I think the larger benefit is weight.
As someone who has been using a 13” iPad Pro for ~ 80% of my daily work and play for years, every fraction of an ounce they can shed is welcome, especially since this device is designed to be held; it doesn’t just sit on a surface like a laptop.
This morning, I talked myself out of installing #linux as I thought of all the scenarios which I would need Windows. It irked me quite a bit, Dual Booting is certainly an option; as I have invested a large chunk of my digital life on Windows, I would spend a lot of time on the Windows partition because so many programs are easier to run on that OS.
Investing in an iMac or Mac Mini would be a safer option. As I wouldn't be using Windows, I could keep access to my iPhone troubleshooting tools.
I'm shocked that an iMac costs less than my Windows PC after tax. I could even come up with the capital to fund that purchase (a small chunk of change from my 401K). Not using Windows is my goal, but I will go about it in a different way, it seems. I do worry about the security of Mac OS, but realistically, I am a pretty safe internet user.
