  • The thing that I liked the most - and still do to this day - about Snow Leopard, is the Disk Utility.

    It’s got teeth in a way that every DU released since Yosmite does not.

    I’ve used it to reformat and repartition newer drives that have for some reason, code on them that stops the newer DU’s cold.

    Perhaps something tied to the system and the restore volumes?

    I have no idea, and yeah, one can use the Terminal to get to the drive tools but one shouldn’t have to.

    SL’s Disk Utility doesn’t give a shit about who, or what, owns a volume.

    If you want it gone, it’s done.














  • If you own your car outright, drop collision and keep liability and add glass and theft and bump up the medical on the liability.

    You can get coverage a lot cheaper of you drop the collision part, but it does mean that if you’re not on the ball and run off the road and smash up your car in a ditch or onto a curb/stone wall/ whatever… it’s on you.

    As I told my insurance agent, why should the insurer pay if I’m not paying attention to what I’m doing behind the wheel?

    He agreed.
