I feel you. I still use an intel macbook with tweaks i cannot remember plus 3rd party utils like Turbo Boost switcher. That experience alone has kept me from upgrading to newer models.
In retrospect my powerbook g4 (Ti) and os 9 was peak computing.
Thank you for taking the time!
Feel you. my 8 yr old alt (my only account left) mysteriously has had a total karma of zero.
Since shortly after election strangely enough. Wonder what happened there /s.
Oooh, that sounds like an interesting read. Do you happen to have the DOI?
Bit of a non-sequitur but I recently had success in pulling a “conservative” friend back from the edge by pointing out Naomi Kleins mirror world logic oligarchs and their fascist enablers use and letting him draw his own conclusions.
For example, Qanon’s obsession with “child trafficking” is a mirror-world version of the real crises of child poverty, child labor, border family separations and kids in cages. Anti-vax is the mirror-world version of the true story of the Sacklers and their fellow opioid barons making billions on Oxy and fent, with the collusion of corrupt FDA officials and a pliant bankruptcy court system.
You’re right painting opposition to their weird gaslighting politics as foreign and in a racial light seems on brand for them.
This article is itself just a diversion. The owner is a local oligarch who for example invited musk to his birthday party. This is anything to not talk about the massive multi year Russian sabotage campaign in the real world Der Spiegel recently uncovered.( archive ) This campaign often masqueraded as a green party/progressively motivated sabotage to further damage the image of the only party who is all-in on heat pumps, wind turbines and solar, a cause doepfner and his oligarch allies despise. So they talk about inconsequential shit like this in their rags.
yeah disconnecting the fedora drive while doing repairs is important.
Always unplug your Linux drives when doing windows work, makes your life easier.
I once borked my windows install because I left the designated (not yet installed) Linux drive plugged in - then windows decided for some God forsaken reason to install the bootloader on the Linux disk. Had to copy the bootloader from install disk like someone else in this thread already typed out.
As someone who had been there, done that - please don’t. You matter. Hope you find a way without this shit.
Oh no. Maybe some Incense to cleanse the demons? (⊙_⊙)
Edit: I just remembered I had a similar problem, after changing the battery on my 2015. This thread at macrumors helped me tremendously especially the last entry (did it on three seperate days before it had an effect.) but I’m sure you already tried all of that. Just for the off chance.
these Intel Macs were such a bad experience.
