AG: Out of warranty so $$$ (60% of original amount)
Me: (wtf?) Really
AG: It's entire motherboard replacement .. bla bla

The only reason I use Linux is because I can't get a mac.

I'm scared

I understand the muggles on Facebook saying it was Apple and Amazon that were hacked, but here on devrant where people know WTF is up, I'm still not seeing people say where the hack actually took place, and what makes the news truly terrifying: SMC.

Clearing SMC and NVRAM on a MacBook is the new "have you tried to turn it off and on again?"

You know you hit rock bottom when can only comunicate with a chat bot.

When you gotta sleep rn to wake up for college tomorrow but you've got a competitive programming problem stuck in your mind that just refuse to go away.

Someone sing me a fucking lullaby pls...

!rant Just letting it out !

From my childhood days I never used to make it a habit to remember our house address as we used to change it often.

My father was the eldest in our family and he took care of his siblings. One younger brother got a nice job and was financially sound to own a house, and we were still a joint family for some time. After a year or so my father was insulted and he moved out in a fit of rage and for ~20 years we have hopped around from one place to another.

This week I will be moving in to my new house along with my parents. Hope I will remember this address forever.

I am still in college and will be going for a job next year. I want to learn Java with all the best practices associated with it. What I would like to do is do a large enough project that would enable me to learn industry standards and use the best practices(effective java etc) in actual code.

So I would ask the devrant community to give some project ideas that would use these practices extensively. I don't know if I am making myself clear here, but any help would be appreciated.

Cannot figure out why my MBP slows to turtle speed every time it hits under 20% battery and fans spin up so loud and fast it sounds like a damn drone. I’ve reset the smc and everything!

My MacbookPro won't shutdown fully. Also while on sleep mode, my apps automatically gets closed for auto shutdown (which will be prevented by iTerm's dialogue box for session saving).

I tried clearing SMC & PRAM multiple times now.

Am from southern India and the temperature here varies between 28 - 35. And my usage is heavy - approx. 13+hrs a day. 'Pro' is meant for heavy usage right?

And I dont usually shutdown my MBP I simply closes the lid, is that a problem? Have you guys experienced such an issue? If so, how do you overcome?

Am concerned about it, gimme ur usage patterns / tips to solve this..

The sticker would look amazing on my laptop, too bad i'm not going to get one soon 🙁🙁

Anybody using Jetbrains PyCharm on Linux ?

I need a scraper, or a f$$$in api

I'm using Fedora 25/ pre-release, and It's rock solid except for wifi hotspot and I don't need it.

Now my school gave me a Windows 10 pro key, and I'm hesitant.
Should I install it ?
Will I need it ?

How to fix the “Service Battery” Warning on Mac ? I have done the prescribed method before— reset SMC and recalibrate battery. It only hides the warning for a certain amount of time. I am looking for a more permanent fix.
