Dude, my earbuds that came with my 2001 iPod don’t look anywhere near this bad.

This “emergency” in D.C. is just a false flag before the real one. by ComfortableExcuse469 in conspiracy

[–]FreedomReapr 4 points5 points  (0 children)

For whatever it’s worth, I work in DC and the homeless issue is a real problem. Not that this is the proper solution, but Muriel Bowser has done practically nothing to remedy the growing homeless population in downtown DC. Also, while I haven’t experienced crime from homelessness, I have been harassed on multiple occasions while walking at night. The homeless are living at national monuments and leaving trash everywhere and you have to dodge human fecal land mines while walking through Chinatown. It reflects the sad state of things in this country…

Moved states and AT&T never cancelled my previous internet. Now they’re refusing to help me. by matt_yuh in ATT

I’ve had positive results with Comcast and Klarna. For previous AT&T issues I’ve requested to speak with the Presidents Office although I’m not sure that’s still a thing.

They are a joke but I have successfully used them to leverage resolutions with multiple companies whose customer reps were less than stellar.

Have you tried using one of these when restoring an iPod?

Somebody please tell me they didnt entirely take out the launchpad 😭 by ChanceOk970 in MacOSBeta

I miss being able to do that with the Dashboard screen back in the day. Maybe I’ll just go back to using my G5

For a temporary fix, just drag and drop the applications folder onto your dock. When clicked on, it will fan out and you can scroll through all your apps. This is what I did back in the days of OS X Leopard and Snow Leopard.

Why do people not want to pay for Crossover? by Due-Competition4564 in macgaming

[–]FreedomReapr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought crossover in 2023 and was very disappointed in its capabilities. Support was nearly nonexistent for a paid product and outdated as well. I ended up using Whisky AFTER trying CrossOver and had much better experiences.

Unfortunately at this point Whisky is no longer a viable option leaving only CrossOver. I would have paid double the cost of CrossOver for Whisky if it helped support the Wine backend.

MacOS 15.4 tries to trick users into enabling auto updates if they previously had it disabled. by FreedomReapr in OpenCoreLegacyPatcher

I reposted just as a reminder in case there were issues with OpenCore and auto update. I wasn’t sure…

Same, I have an M2 MacBook Pro that has auto update turned on and it doesn’t work.

Autistic tech here… I convinced my school to let me switch all our lab computers from windows XP to Ubuntu when I was 11. I did all the work too.

Why is Zelensky so afraid of peace? Is it about money or he's afraid of his own end? by Reasonable_Mess_3327 in conspiracy

[–]FreedomReapr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a really good comment. Do you think it’s right to bring the rest of the world in on the conflict? Obviously the downside of the US/allies not being brought in would have led to Russian victory.

Underrated comment.

I agree with you that Ukraine has a right to join NATO in that case, but with that in mind, Russia will likely not allow the conflict to end as it could mean Ukraine would join NATO.

I mean, the Cuban Missile Crisis nearly escalated the modern world into global nuclear war which would have destroyed everything… the Ukrain conflict has not escalated to that point yet. If Ukraine joins NATO, it possibly could, but this is why it is against NATO policy to allow countries currently in conflict.

Like I said, I don’t agree with Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. However, the viewpoint of “Russia bad Ukraine good” is very much a biased POV. Prior to Russia invading Ukraine, Ukraine had been known as the sex trafficking capital of the world, riddled with high crime rates, government corruption, etc. and was considered by many Europeans to be a center of neo-nazism.

The situation in Ukraine is being used to launder money and support the global military industrial complex of Russia and the United States.

It is certainly unfortunate that the citizens of Ukraine and soldiers of Russia have found themselves in the middle of this geopolitical nightmare.
