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 Is it 1999? (Score 1) 33

I had to check what decade this was from. Residential proxies have been a thing long before even data centre proxies became a thing. There's a ton of companies offering this service: https://residentialproxyreview... There's both ethical and unethical types of residential proxies, the ethical ones typically pay people $20 a month or so to run a proxy server in their home through companies like HoneyGain. Unethical proxies might be installed with spyware and other unwanted apps.
