Seems like in Germany, 2020 ends not with a bang, but a whimper

2020-12-17

So, the Germany government did not let a crisis go to waste and prohibited the sale of fireworks. And for someone who wants to see 2020 go up in smoke and ... loudness, that's a blow below the belt.

Syspolicyd, Periodically High CPU Load, Reading Huge Amounts of Data, on Mac Big Sur (and likely Catalina as well)

2020-12-02

After installing Big Sur, I noticed a periodically high CPU load, and later found out that huge amounts of data (2.8 TB, yep, *T*B) were read from the HDD within a short amount of time. Turns out, it's very very likely some unsigned .pkg files from gog.com were to blame.

A comment for those seeking to use this site for personal gain: Given the increase in requests, let me be clear. I write on this blog because I want to. It’s my hobby, my playground. Sometimes people point me to interesting products/services and I write about them. But any request regarding ads or sponsored placements ends up the trash without a reply. And if you think something would be of interest, differentiate yourself from the spammers by referring to a posting — in an intelligent way. (I get enough auto-generated mails to identify them immediately.)

BTW, posts can get updated after I published them if I spot spelling errors (not a native speaker) or think a different wording might improve precision and clarity.

This blog is not focused on a single topic, or method. As long as it is relevant to improving creativity (or allowing it in the first place), it's fair game.
Some postings on this blog deal with freedom, as I think that we need freedom of thought, of speech, of association, etc. pp. to solve mankind's problems. Thus, some postings may seem a bit remote when it comes to organizing creativity. Freedom is, however, the bedrock of creativity.
The heterogeneity of the postings can make reading this blog a bit cumbersome, at least if you are only interested in one topic. You can either use the search function (above), or use the categories or the tags to narrow down the postings you see.
