    This is still Segregation 101. 

    Such things keep dividing us. 

    You are on point One Million percent.  Does anyone know the ethnicity of the coders behind any application - NO.  -  When technology gets political it gets scary.  Ask the Romans - Where are they?

    Right and Wrong are moral terms - Correct and Incorrect are scientific terms.  This is grade (1) English. Crazy....

  • Google Chrome is the most vulnerable browser in 2022

    Has anyone heard of this application called Firefox by the Mozilla group which does not make money or compete with any company - and did I mention it's Open Source.  And the best browser by FAR.  They were once called Netscape - the creators of HTML.  Alphabet or Google whatever they want to call themselves is a governmental entity.

    It mystifies me as to why anyone would want to run Windows on a Mac, silicon or otherwise. Sure you can do it, but in the words of my late mother, "JP, just because you CAN do something doesn't mean you SHOULD." Mom was wise.

    With Windows PCs available for next to nothing, both new and refurb, with Windows pre-installed (you know Windows is not included with either emulator, right?), please, someone provide me with justification for not just buying a cheap PC to run your QuickBooks Pro, or some other application not available on MacOS?
    Why buy a POS low end Windows machine to run a once a year Corp tax program?   I don’t have space for it and using VMWare is much easier and less hassle.  Plus I have MacOS VMs to run a PPC version of an app using original Rosetta in the last version of Mac OS X that supported that plus one using the last macOS that supported 32 but apps.  I have a couple side businesses that don’t make enough money to make it worthwhile for me to upgrade my expensive PLC app or 32 bit app to the latest so I run these in the VM fir as long as I can. 

    I used to use Parallels.  That ended when an update wouldn’t install and I couldn’t run it any more and their support was basically “crickets”.  Couldn’t be bothered to help.  That was like 10-12 years ago but the sour taste has stayed with me and so I’ve avoided Parallels since and have been a paid and happy VMWare user since. 

    And btw. I run Windows 10 natively on a 2008 MacPro.  Run special model train software for configuring and testing some interfaces.  But that computer is dedicated to that task and it is too much hassle to try and use it for my once a year tax need 



    Just buy a Windows machine.  If you need a Macintosh - use your Macintosh.  I can't even come close to comprehend your logic.

    So the morons could not convince people to vote for union and now they want to sue.

    my god, somebody take out the trash please?

    close the stores and make these losers work in Burger King and form union there



    They would not last an hour at Burger King.  You have to make Burgers at Burger King - and the workers at Burger King know the difference between lettuce and tomato.
