Yeah Apple is straight up user hostile to people running apps on MacOS not signed by Apple, and I don't know why more people don't talk about it and push back against it. They are one step away from removing the ability to freely install software on your own computer.


I don't use itunes on mac or ios, so I use an app called NoTunes on MacOS that kills the itunes app whenever it launches.

They said they had no intention of hindering or invalidating 'legal' 3rd party docks, where 'legal' could be interpreted as "authorized by Nintendo", which could mean they have every intention of hindering every dock they don't approve of or get a cut of sales of.

Hexlox for the seat, seatpost suspension, and handlebar bolts, as well as hexlox for the axles.

Abus granit x-plus u-lock, cafe lock with Abus chain lock integrated, and a cable lock for my front wheel.

Also bike insurance.

I have all these stupid locks because I have an ebike. I have an ebike to help offset all the weight of these stupid locks.

Friendly reminder that Reolink cameras need to be denied internet access / isolated on the network because they constantly reach out to a bunch of Chinese IP addresses.

Fun Fact: DVD originally was called Digital Video Disc and was changed shortly after because it began being used for other non-video purposes.

Source: I was there when DVD was first introduced to the market.

We are in a new age of disinformation and crazy people, where the president of the US literally responds to protests against him with AI videos of him shitting on all of them, and where every sarcasm post needs an /s.

I am assuming you aren't rooted? Ad Away works beautifully to block ads system-wide but it does require root.

There's also a limited animated TV series! I am not sure where to watch it right now though. This series is one of my favorites.
