I use #Windows10. After a patch from #Microsoft a problem that I have fixed comes back again. Specifically on restart disk activity is 100% for 20 - 40 minutes. I have fixed it MULTIPLE TIMES, using different methods but Microsoft breaks it again.
Yes, i know #Linux is great & #Macs never have no problems...

The Final Fix is to replace the hard drive with the solid state drive. I can do that, but it just pisses me off that the product that I paid for, & fixed, is rebroken every Tuesday.

Just a beautiful machine inside and out!

If I see a discarded G5 tower in the alley, I will bring it home. Always wanted one!

Seriously, #Apple preventing people and businesses from #refurbishing should be illegal!

And I sincerely hope both @EU_Commission and @Bundesverband will actively go after manufacturers that want to deny people their freedom to actually own their devices as per "1st sale doctrine".

Like it's none of Apple's business if someone chose to get a #refurbished display unless they want to fraudulently sell it as a new device and not a replacement - but that's already covered with fraud.

The #Apple Macintosh SE is a personal computer from the Compact Mac family. It features a Motorola 68000 processor running Apple's classic "System Software," later succeeded by Mac OS.

In our collection, we have 4 such charming #Macs, including the SE, SE/30, SE FDHD, and Macintosh Classic. Join us on January 24th at 18:00 to collectively appreciate, discuss, and commemorate alongside veterans. More information: https://fienta.com/obelezujemo-40-let-macintosh-hvala-za-misko

#Fedora #Asahi Remix 39 Officially Released For #AppleSilicon #Macs
The distribution comes with the #KDE Plasma desktop environment by default on Wayland. Previously a remix of #ArchLinux ARM, the #FedoraAsahiRemix distribution is the result of a multi-year collaboration between the #AsahiLinux project and the #FedoraProject, enabling you to have a proper daily driver on your #Apple Silicon Mac thanks to Fedora #Linux’s excellent 64-bit ARM support.

@marcan
I do disagree since #AppleSilicon-based #Macs don't have a seperate #Flash for the #Apple-#EFI & #BridngeOS so when the #Flash dies they are a braindead brick and since Apple went #ThinkDifferent they chose to use #SolderedDown, #proprietary Flash ICs so one can neither obtain these nor reflash them without access to Apple's proprietary tools that not even #AASP|s can get their hands on legally.
