    Sure they are Chinese criminal organisations..but they are based in the USofAmerica.
    the lowest cost servertime, the ability to buy thousands of phone numbers makes it all too easy.
    Just the cost of doing business in the USofamerica.

    Never been an issue to be different before.. so many examples.
    -change the spelling of the metal Al from aluminium to aluminum the only country on the planet
    -use of imperial units..very strange for a country which went to war over imperial governance..….the only response is, if you don’t like it, there are plenty of countries willing to allow you a fresh start…

    Recruiting the disaffected has already started..

  • M4 Mac mini may have a USB-C connectivity problem

    garybaugarybau
    M4 512 Mac mini HDMI 27’ and USB-C 32’
    set to energy saving
    on wake up the 32” will not pick up the signal and requires on/off to get an active screen.
    Been doing this since day one, swapped USB cables, altermnated HDMI connections, so it was then the 27” which didn’t start.

    Both front and rear USB-C ports have been swapped..makes no difference.

    so I just switch off screens, then on and no further issues..

    It’s annoying though and consistent with other comments.
    I hadn’t thought of ‘low energy’ setting though..that was in a previous comment I read in this forum today….
