I also have it on good authority that water is wet, fire is hot, and waving a Mexican flag while throwing fireworks at American law enforcement enforcing American laws on American soil is, in fact, rebellion and/or insurrection.

How about when you beat a police officer with an American flag while that officer is enforcing American laws in America's capitol - is that rebellion and/or insurrection?

Only for a handful of 2019 and 2020 MacBook Pro and Mac Pro.

This is true. but older Macs falling off the "supported" list is not exactly a new phenomenon - it's always been a somewhat arbitrary distinction (as OLP, and before that dosdude1's patchers, helped people overcome).

But the architecture change obviously raised an insurmountable cliff in this regard. I can't say I'll be throwing out my 2020 Intel MBP because of it, though... at least assuming Firefox continues to support it for a while.

Comment T2-Mint FTW (Score 3, Interesting) 65

The T2 chip makes installing a vanilla Linux distribution on Macs somewhat more problematic - but I've found that T2 Mint works pretty well out of the box.

The only issue I've had is with waking the machine from sleep at times. I haven't put much work into getting that sorted, yet, but I'm sure it's doable. Regardless, a cold boot is quite zippy.

Comment And all of these are above the human baseline (Score 2) 71

It is worth noting even the easiest puzzles here are puzzles which many, if not most humans, cannot solve. The fact that we're now evaluating AI reasoning based on puzzles above human baseline should itself be pretty alarming. But instead we've moved the goalposts and so are reassuring ourselves that the AIs cannot easily solve genuinely tricky puzzles.
