He wasn't referring to you, he already knows what you do.
He was trying to ID which one of his "friends" told you about
his dismissal from the Royal Navy for "behavior unbecoming to an
officer".

ol’ yellowstain doesn’t even know which county I’m in. Hell, his
various attempts to dox me by looking at IPs will cause him to be uncertain
which _state_ I’m in. If he’s been paying attention, which he hasn’t,
and if he had even a room temperature (in degrees C...) IQ, which he
doesn’t, he might have a problem IDing which _country_ I’m in. (Hint:
North America has three counties in the main landmass plus several others in
assorted nearby islands. I’ve posted from two of the three mainland
counties and three of the nearby islands. Plus one more island which isn’t
so nearby. And isn’t usually considered to be part of North America.)

There are now 11 sources. Only an idiot would consider any of them to be
‘factory workers’. Of course, the vile one _is_ an idiot.

You are once more responding to a *LIAR*. Shadow is not significunt.:-P

I was *NOT* dismissed from the Royal Navy - for *ANY* reason.

Hard to believe you're still on active duty after all these years. I
guess the stories of insurance sales scams and financial management
scams, not to mention the stories of boating on sewage canals, were all
a ruse to hide the fact that you're still a member of the RN.

Or, it could be that you're simply being dishonest again.

You haven't told anyone which adapter you are talking about, as far as I
can tell.

I do recall that you mentioned removing the .AppleSetupDone file. But
that's not going to allow you to start up the Mac, since firmware
protection is enabled.

As you are well aware, JR, I'm not a "techie" but do realise that there
must be SOMEWHERE within an Apple computer where, for example, the
Serial Number is stored. If the hard drive is removed and replaced,
Apple can still identify the hardware.

So, in what type of electronic component is the information held?

Does that situation pertain in the hardware used to run Microsoft and
Linux operating systems? I think not, so that makes Apple hardware
'special'!

Philo could probably identify that chip and remove it.

Please provide further information on where this 'chip' may be found.
Or are you simply guessing (again!)?

nobody said otherwise.

the problem is that what you are attempting to do does not qualify as a
discussion.

you don't think at all.

that's highly unlikely given his deep lack of knowledge about macs. he
mistakenly believes removing a file on the ssd will affect the
firmware.

removal of the chip would render the mac non-functional, and given what
he's trying to do with the firmware, that might occur anyway.

unfortunately, the mac is not his to experiment on.

> Please provide further information on where this 'chip' may be found.

on the logic board.

> Or are you simply guessing (again!)?

nope. i do not guess.

you said you're not a techie, so i explained it in non-technical terms.

if you do not understand, i can try to use smaller words.

What an odd thing to say given that you've been asking the same

To dismiss:
"1. To end the employment or service of".

What do you call being asked to "retire - or else" long before
you were due to official retirement?
Seems KP speaks better English than you do.
Why are you STILL posting about your personal vices on a Mac
group? Do you feel no shame?
OT up.

Snit is one f*cked up puppy - who steals our hard earned tax
paying dollars from the government by running a long con for
welfare - who can be reached via telephone - text message - or in
person - by using the publically available contact information
below:

Michael (snit) and Anne Glasser (life-like troll lady)
3181 Willow Dr, Prescott, AZ
86301-4855 
1.928.445.3425 or 1-(928)-445-3425
1.928.776.9519 or 1-(928)-776-9519
They are professional Grifters who live on the benefits your hard
earned tax paying dollars provide. Animal abuser = snit pissed on
his own cat!

In case I end up making things worse, I will simply rename rather than delete.
I already stated I am getting a 7x17 to ssd adaptor.
As to the firmware, AFAIK, that's on the T2 chip, not the ssd.

One tutorial I saw said the T2 chip could be replaced in order to get by a lost passcode.

They suggested taking one out of a scrap MacBook.

Even though for my job, I did repair control boards...I had the equipment to do so.
Now that I'm retired, I do not have the complete workstation that I'd need.

you keep saying that. you keep not supporting it.

i believe him... because, among other things, a lot of what he says is also
reported elsewhere, and by people not on usenet and who have no connection to
him.

Meanwhile, no-one supports your version of events. and you refuse to provide
support. you just had the chance to show where the lies were... and declined
to do so. This, of itself, speaks volumes about you, none of it good.

nearly a dozen others disagree. I believe them. I don’t believe you.

You simply have not, or can not, show why they would lie after OVER 40 YEARS.
Either you or they are lying... and they have the same names, dates, places.
Occam’s Razor says to believe them, not you... unless and until you can
come up with a reason why so many would tell the same stories. Either it’s
the truth, or you did something 40 years ago to really, really, REALLY anger
a lot of people. So which is it? Where you a serial homosexual sexual
harasser, or did you _seriously_ piss off a large number of POs and warrants?
It’s one or the other... and my money is on both: you were a serial
homosexual sexual abuser, which seriously pissed off a large number of POs
and warrants. And they intend to see you burn at the stake for what you did
as your ‘punishment’ was far too light.

I’m not the vile serial homosexual sexual harasser.

He likely does so merely for the attention. Just looked at some of the posts
by Gremlin and Carroll... they are addicted to the attention and cannot help
themselves from begging even when I have mostly ignored them for quite some
time. It is not that these folks believe their claims, or are having
discussions in good faith, they just want to hurt others because of the pain
they feel.

I feel sorry for them.

Personal attacks from those who troll show their own insecurity. They cannot use reason to show the message to be wrong so they try to feel somehow superior by attacking the messenger.

They cling to their attacks and ignore the message time and time again.

that doesn't matter since macos looks for that file by name, so the
effect is identical.

the bigger issue is that won't fix a firmware password, nor could it
possibly do so.

the fact that you think that removing a file on an ssd/hd would affect
uefi firmware indicates you have *no* idea what you're doing.

however, what it will do, and just as you noted, is it will make things
worse, much more so than it is already.

tip: don't remove files whose purpose you do not understand.
tip #2: don't try to fix something that you cannot fix.

> I already stated I am getting a 7x17 to ssd adaptor.

yep, but not which one, which matters.

it's quite possible you're getting the wrong one.

> As to the firmware, AFAIK, that's on the T2 chip, not the ssd.

there is no t2 chip in that mac and you obviously don't understand what
firmware is or what it does, which is a *very* important detail when
dealing with a firmware password. you also don't know what a t2 chip
is.

!!!!!!!!!!

words escape me.

you're in *way* over your head.

stop trying to fix something you cannot fix.

put everything back together the way you found it and give it back to
the person, hopefully with it functioning exactly as it did when you
first got it. tell her to go to an apple store for further assistance.

*stop* experimenting with someone else's computer, unless you are
prepared to buy her a new one when (not if) you fuck it up.

no, that's definitely not what's needed.
