All of these messages features really make me dread group chats with my family after iOS 10 comes out. New notifications and side by side in safari on iPad is cool though.

Anyone still using a mid 2012 retina MacBook pro 15"? I have someone willing to sell me a 16gb model with a 512mb SSD 2.6ghz i7 for $900. The specs seem pretty close to the one currently available aside from the slower RAM and the lack of a touch bar. Is this machine a good deal? Is it too ancient to be useful for web development (Apache/php/mysql, in a Docker container, angularjs, node.js, sublime text, light Photoshop) on a 1440p monitor?

Luceo posted:I have a mid-2012 non-retina 15" MBP (2.6GHz i7, 8GB, 512GB SSD, 650M) and the only thing that has me even wanting to upgrade a little bit is for a better GPU for the few games I do play on it, like WoW and Civ6. I mainly have it plugged into an external display, too, and I've already had the battery replaced. Best machine I've ever owned. That's great. I have a beefy gaming pc (and consoles) for games so the mac is strictly business so the retina version of what you have should be perfect for me. I'm picking it up tomorrow.

Well I got the 2012 yesterday and it's a hell of a machine. Earlier last year I had a 2012 13" rMBP for a few months and this machine is MUCH more powerful than the 13". (which had a dual core i5 with no hyperthreading) This machine doesn't feel underpowered in the least to me. I made a good choice. It is so much nicer than the windows machine I was using for this web dev stuff.

While logged in as him get rid of the offending extensions and run the following from the terminal code:Note: he won't be able to update the extensions anymore because his user won't have permission to write the updated files to the directory. You'll need his password to execute those commands. You'll be prompted for it after entering the first one. To undo it you'll just change root:root in the first command to username:staff replacing username with whatever is username is.

Instead of worrying about temps try and figure out what's dominating your CPU. Open a terminal, type "top" without the quotes and take a screenshot and post that.

For ad blocking network wide I use a raspberry pi running something called pi hole. All of your dns requests go through it and it just rejects requests for ad networks and trackers and replaces it with blank content. Works great for ads, sponsored stories on news sites, and it works on every device on my network and it's not trackable by the sites themselves so you never get a "disable Adblock for this site" pop up anywhere. It's really cool. It of course requires a raspberry pi and a router that will allow you to select a new default DNS server to route all requests through but I already had one lying around.

Smashing Link posted:This has been informative. Although once again I should clarify that I am not in a position where IT could fire or discipline me, I guess I will leave the device as issued. It doesn't sound like it's foolproof from either the CCC cloning perspective or the MDM perspective anyway. The more you know! Also this forum seems to have gotten a bit more conservative with age, or maybe SH/SC was always more mature. It's not IT that fires people for that, it's IT that reports it to people who can fire people for that. It's a security risk. It's a multi-user unix OS so install things in your ~/Applications folder if you need stuff that you can't install in /Applications.

I use pi-hole for network wide ad blocking. Basically it is a raspberry pi that acts as a dns server that points known as serving domains at itself instead of the ad servers so in place of an ad you see nothing. And since it works network wide and is not a browser plugin it can't be detected and it works on all of my devices.

Don't really consider that as AV though. It's extremely unlikely any AV would have picked up what that thing was doing though, heuristics or no because it wasn't really doing anything "virus-like" that a normal app shouldn't do. Run AV if you want. I don't really give a poo poo what other people do with their computers. I was just saying I doubt it would have prevented anything in this particular instance.

Transmission works pretty well for me. I rarely use it on my Mac anymore though, I have a Linux server on my network handling all of my downloading and plex server duties. Transit though, an ftp/sftp/scp/file transfer client is great. I used to use CuteFTP until transmit came along.

There's probably a setting I'm missing in Handbrake, but I'm done trying to figure it out. I found something that works and that's ultimately what I wanted. Isn't downloading faster than ripping? Why not just download them and feel good about owning them on disc too instead of going to the pain-in-the-rear end length of ripping them?
