Now do the cables 😈

If it’s so valid then why aren’t you voting democrat?

My problem with the idea that we all ought to vote for some party whose policies and politics are far from our own in order to win isn’t that it denies the blossoming of everyone’s special flower ideas, but that it collapses all the effects of a third party into winning and losing.

Oh, and the person you’re helping may be better served by either the dosdude Catalina patcher or the open core legacy patcher.

Walk through your process on these with someone who’s used them first before you just go off, if you don’t have access to another device running macos then you can “soft lock” yourself.

If you’re gonna work on macs it’s good idea to have one, even what the kids used to call a hackintosh.

You need to know what you have. Other people have teased out that you have a MacBook Air, but there’s several different versions.

Apple hardware for like twenty years has used two types of naming conventions, the Trade Name (Approximate Date) and the Trade Name Number,Number designation. You might have a MacBook Air 7,1 for example which is an Early 2015. The TN N,N is the model Identifier and the TN (AD) is the model.

You can find out what you have by clicking on the apple menu in the upper left hand corner and choosing “about this mac”. The window that pops up will tell you the model and if you click “system report” you will get a ton of information that should have the model identifier somewhere near the top.

You can also look up the serial on the website everymac.com and it’ll tell you a best guess which is almost always right!

Once you’ve done that you can much more effectively search for the pitfalls of installing Linux on that computer.

I didn’t say the greens are as bad as the dems, I said they’re not the best available option any more than dems are.

Im not gonna rake you over the coals too much for it, but maybe the language around ballot access and chances isn’t the best way to pull people to your particular electoral construction given it’s the same set of ideas that supporters of the democrats are using against both of us.

What do the logs say?

I replied to your courteous response with courtesy in kind, asking genuine questions to understand your ideas and hopefully eventually understand your position.

You’re not under attack or being trolled. I hope you have a great day!

There are other parties that are both more left, more explicitly align with my politics and do not have a dubious history of triangulation.

The greens are not the best available option any more than the democrats are.

How precisely can the slaughter and harvest of meat exist in humane ways?

When and where do vegans place the well being of farm animals above people?

How can you find it reasonable to assert that an industry that famously relied on coerced/forced labor over a century ago and has preyed upon the workers most in need of dangerous, traumatizing work ever since has no causal link to its inputs and outputs which are the bodies of living creatures?

Ty!

That sucks. I’ve done that a lot of times by either not understanding what I was doing or fat fingering some decision.

If you do decide to try again, tag me and I’ll set up a vm environment similar to yours and walk you through any confusing steps.

I don’t, but there’s lots of reasons people do it, there might be additional costs associated with it but everything I’ve heard of it that the person in charge of the trust just pays the property tax like if they were a normal person instead of the agent of a vehicle.

One benefit to a trust it that transfers take place entirely within the framework of the trust, so you can transfer use rights and “ownership” within the trust without incurring the transfer fees and taxes associated with splitting up a plot in the “meatspace” of titles and deeds.

Everyone is saying yes.

They are wrong.

You will absolutely have to troubleshoot in order to figure out how to do what you want to do.

Linux is different than windows or macos and you’re gonna have to gain an understanding (however dumbed down you might describe it) of those differences in order to use the computer.

If you can get over that hump of understanding then I think you’ll be fine.

I meant to write socket instead of port because I was tired.

If for example a program can take rpc over a socket which is a file somewhere is it just the filesystem permissions that determine what can be done or is there more at play?

Can a windows boot usb also not read them? If so and if you have the space to do so, it’s worthwhile to backup, reformat and repopulate the unreadable drives.

If Unix permissions don’t work for you, acls are the next logical step.

Land can be held by a trust

You just use the same phone numbers and accounts and stuff. There’s been standard ways to redirect people to new names for at least centuries.

It costs a couple hundred bucks to start a new llc in most states. People just use their old articles of incorporation and change the names (I know one who just crossed the old ones out with a pen and wrote the new ones in over the top).

Permitting almost always has exceptions for existing operations.

When you close a business on paper you don’t suddenly lose access to services in the name of that business.

If you can figure out a good reason to (any reason counts, restructuring, etc) you can have the same dba filing for your new company, not change anything externally and be fine.

What you’re not considering is that all of the above things might amount to five grand if you live in a particularly restrictive state, but that’s still 45k in tax breaks a year and if there was some reason to restructure internally now you’re getting paid for it.

It used to be that someone with midi controllers could be assumed to be technical enough to say “you’ll be fine, everything will work”, but most of the time nowadays software just automatically figures out stuff and you don’t have to go looking at the implementation chart and using midiox to see where you’re screwing up,

So,

I’ve never seen an interface that didn’t work, but if you’re not comfortable troubleshooting midi signals then give it a shot and see.

What are you using midi for, a daw?

If you can boot back into windows, turn off quick startup/shutdown, run chkdsk or whatever on the drives, reboot back into windows then boot back into Linux and you’ll be okay.

Quick startup is a kind of weird sleep/hibernate mutant that leaves drives in an unclean state when it turns off, so the Linux drivers for ntfs say “I’m not gonna touch that possibly damaged drive”.
