reformatt··on Open source tutorial for Hackintosh installation
Can hackintosh machines develop iOS apps and sign apps using XCode? I don't think macbooks or the apple desktops are the best machines at all, but the MacOS is too valuable to leave for Windows.

Hidden behind a paywall, is it possible to get a mirror? I'm curious to see if it will be self-drive or assisted driving. Volvo thinks they can create the tech and mass produce 24,000 in the next 2 years, so how's their progress so far?
reformatt··on Money can be stolen from an Uber account
Yeah, you purchase the game before playing it generally. The justification is that you've only purchased a license to play it, which they'll revoke. Still some BS to get locked out if you pay upfront for a game. It's also way worse when you realize how garbage their customer service is. It's pretty hard to get a human on the other side within a week or two, so it's way harder to get wrong things fixed.

If you could only use 32-bit data types, you can get 64-bits from using 2 integers together like a long number. So the right integer would hit the max, start over at 0, and increment the left integer. Then, using this idea you can create a class of numbers that can have however many bits you want by using more ints.
