  • I am Californian and that one snuck past me. I really didn’t hear anything about it until recently and I’m pretty pissed.

    You can’t put the genie back into the lamp on biometrics. We needed real control over outlr digital data and biometrics before this became law. I hope it is repealed somehow, but the elite class don’t give a fuck.

    As for business vs government, government is scrutinized closer but businesses get away with much more. It’s easier to get around red tape to outsource work to businesses than build government infrastructure to do things themselves.

    On one hand, bummer. But on the other, sort of a waste of hardware anyway.

    I was a big time pro user. G3 tower with DVD card, G5 dual, Mac Pro 5,1 with dual X5690’s and other upgrades. But I had to drag those systems kicking and screaming out of Apple’s walled garden to do what is second nature on the PC side of things. Loved the OS back then, but not all users were braindead drones.

    “Pro” stopped being a moniker for advanced capability, instead the most expensive, least hobbled version.

    I hope whomever replaces Cook (rumor has it) once again remembers what it was like to be a nerd under all that businessman authority.
