I've been a Crossover customer since their 2012 end of the world sale.

Never used T-Mobile, yet the last T-Mobile breach, I received a postcard from them offering me credit security services because they leaked my information. Turns out that data was from the early 2000's when cell phone store employee checked to see what services I can apply for... WTF!

"Boudin's Bakery" is this the one where their Sourdough Starter, over 150 years old, is so valuable that it is taken from store to store in a Armored Van?

I am certain AMD like most responsible vendors (Seagate) also worked with Apple to correct the issue. Nvidia's issue was that it told all of the laptop vendors to just deal with it. It's why they are hated by other vendors and AMD/Intel worked hard to keep them from creating x86 cpus.

The issue is that Zoom continues to keep the mic open after you quit the App. They blamed it on a bug and said it was fixed in a new version but it's still happening! This is why doing this in the browser would be better or even adding an App Firewall like OverSight to block access to the external devices.

LOL That would be nice!!! Feed an Animated Gif to the Webcam and Whale Noise to the mic!

Objective-See has a utility to do this called OverSight. It's a firewall for your webcams and mics. BUT do not mention this in the Zoom forums as it will be taken down.

MacOS (Certified Unix OS) is bundled with multiple OpenSource projects since it's initial OS X release, just like many other *nix OSes. It's so easy to install your own version and override it that this is not an issue. Simple response... use brew.

Nothing. NVidia still has it's ARM license and as long as they are kept out of the x86 chip business (thanks to Intel and AMD) they are happy to renew the license with ARM.

Yes but Apple's license for ARM v7 allows it to do anything it wants with the tech regardless of who owns ARM. Only 5 to 7 companies have this license and it's very expensive.

"my 2017 macbook is spinning fans, as ... like 3 tabs open on chrome" Chrome might be your issue. Doing the same on on a 2015 MacbookPro and it's silent... Firefox.

But it's not and it has been documented. Apple paid for the 3nm process years before TSMC had the fab ready. I'll bet that the moment a new process is available that Apple will invest in it as well.
