> Because yes, it does sound pretty ridiculous that an LLC needs to maintain a $0 balance or else it will penalize the owners of said LLC. That doesn't sound right.

It's definitely not correct at all. Neither is issuing phantom invoices to yourself to put money into the account.

A bank account is just a vehicle to store business cash, it really has nothing directly to do with the way you should be maintaining your LLC's books. You should be recording things like that as "capital contributions" which increase your "capital account."

Similarly, profits and losses should be booked to your capital account. I would strongly recommend doing some reading on capital account bookkeeping.

Who are you talking about?

> Freedom of speech is about legality

It can often be about legality but it is absolutely not limited to that.

> Just like now with police brutality in the US: so much violence from them that expressing/inciting hate toward them becomes acceptable in my book.

So it is you, personally, that is the arbiter of what is and isn't OK? Does your own repeated expression of intolerance for the fundamentals of free speech in this thread similarly allow me to mark "expressing/inciting hate" toward you as "acceptable" as well? Where does this kind of reasoning end?

Free speech issues aren't the exclusive domain of government.

This essay is filled with unsubstantiated suppositions.

> Only someone like Apple could have pulled it off and forced all of their customers to change the way they use their devices but now we are better off because if it.

They didn't force "all" of their customers to change. Some of us left their ecosystem entirely. My ThinkPad now suits me quite nicely using my devices the way I want to.

"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."

These are enumerations, not distinctions. One person's right to protest is not of any more importance than another's right to associate freely at a motorcycle rally.

> How is that relevant?

The relevance is obvious.

> There is a fundamental difference in the urgency of attending a protest versus attending the Sturgis rally.

The constitution deliberately makes no such distinction.

I never got any of that stuff to work reliably before I moved off the Mac completely. It would sometimes work and often not work. Often enough that I wrote both of those features off as simple keynote gimmicks.

> Is this really all that bad? In the era of everything living in the cloud, it generally takes me only a couple hours to setup a system again from scratch.

In the 90s I used to laugh at my Windows friends who had to "reformat the C drive and re-install Windows" every month or so when it became unusable. Their excuses sounded much like yours: a lot of hand waving about how it's "not so bad" and not a big deal.

This is actually why I completely left the Apple ecosystem. I ditched the iPhone for a LineageOS device and, since I think the Mac will eventually end up fully locked down as well, decided to get ahead of that race and migrate to Linux.

Actually, Trump calling it "Chinese Virus" seems to track exactly with the CCP planting those silly stories about the virus being created by the U.S. military. Now that they seem to be toning that rhetoric down, he has also stopped calling it "Chinese Virus."
