For those unaware, the saying used to be “If it ain’t Boeing, I ain’t going”. The reason for this was because Boeing had a well deserved reputation for quality, reliability, and overengineering. It was a company run by engineers. Another company named McDonnell Douglas, with the polar opposite reputation, went or was about to go bankrupt. It was a company run by salesmen. Boeing decided to buy McDonnell Douglas but instead of firing the entirety of MD’s executive branch, they decided to absorb them.

Win11 ARM as a VM on Apple silicone runs faster, with less power draw and with significantly less heat than the original installnon raw metal. I’m not sure what dev tools your shop is using for the Macs, but we have had no issues.

I see someone mentioned B12, but have you checked your vitamin d levels? I (53m) was feeling like that back in spring and my doctor gave me a ultra high dose of vitamin D (50,000iu) and it was like someone turned on all the lights in my brain. Now I am on 5,000iu daily.

What a dumb move. All this does is discourage me from getting another BMW when my lease is up.


What models? I have an i4 and I have never been hit with this or those subscription services everyone kept talking about. I wonder if it is happening only in certain models.


So…never.

And they are providing the OCR’d text free of charge to the masses, right? Right?



I’m sorry, but I’m having difficulty mustering up some fucks to give about “the kingdom’s” woes.
