yeah, you probably shouldn't touch them they're there though. maybe mixed in with all the standard apple stuff and adobe bullshit is something you'd actually want to remove. who knows.

my suspicion is that theres something left over from old software or a previous verison of mac os that its taking forever to verify or something still very tempted to just flatten adn reinstall

i guess it could be something it's trying to verify the signature for on execute that's just hanging until it times out you can check the system log if you feel like doing some computer janitoring

Gentle Autist posted:people always say this but i listen to 10ish hours of podcasts a week on mine and they are still going strong after almost 3 years Yeah, that's not heavy use though, I've usually got something going 35-40 hours a week or more on my headphones

either way it is more an issue of principle than any real impact (as long as you recycle them properly). few people keep headphones for very long either way, but that is in itself bad and lovely, and it is kind of sad that apple leans into it. not least in that apple has historically been pretty good about making their devices practical lifetime quite long.

I'm in the process of setting up a trade in through apple for my 2018 MBP and the serial number identifies it as having a 2.7 Ghz i7. It's actually got the 2.3 Ghz i5. Does Apple just not give a gently caress about what the serial number actually says when it comes to trade ins? That's kind of weird.

yeah, I only use faceid for applepay because credit card charges are easy enough to reverse. gently caress biometrics to unlock computers

the td bank app has faceid integration*, but it can only be used if the phone is already unlocked. same with microsoft authenticator*. it's good enough for me. i could disable it completely but it's annoying enough to pin unlock, doing it every time for every app is certainly more secure, but to a degree i don't care about *to my knowledge these don't store the actual account password in keychain, they have some kind of auth proxy via faceid. i don't have keychain sync enabled either. infernal machines fucked around with this message at 20:14 on Dec 9, 2020 |

if ur worried about it surreptitiously uploading 3D face scans to the bad guys I don't think turning off the convenient face unlock feature is gonna help you there. you're still letting it scan your face every time you look at it lol

hold power and volume up. takes you to the power-off and emergency call screen and requires the passcode to unlock the phone.
