But it's not even supposed to be a "computer".

What did you hope to achieve by posting his details?

It seems like Angela Lipps needs some help. There's no "Go Fund Me" or similar information associated with the article. Perhaps her (former) attorney could provide more information.

No. It's not their money and they don't care.

The keyboard issue was probably caused by the battery, which can be replaced, and the keyboard would have likely returned to normal after the battery replacement.

In fact, depending on the model, the battery replacement may well have also entailed replacing the whole top cover (including the keyboard).

Interesting I will look at replacing the battery if that’s a possibility. Thanks!

The Intel MacBook Air battery was very easy to swap, just opening the bottom lid. Amazon has kits for about 40 bucks with the two necessary screwdrivers included.

Just did this on a 2017 MacBook Air. Battery was cheap ($50?) and it was simple to do. Machine is working just fine now.

Why'd the battery be related to the keyboard issue?

Batteries swell

come on now, let the poor girl have a new laptop to replace her (at least) 5 year old one. what are we doing here.

GrapheneOS not only permits relocking, it prompts the user to do so immediately after installation.

>If you subscribe to the mindset of "new domains are likely to be bad" you just deal with a steady stream of allowlist requests from your users until the end of time.

Newly-registered domains are not generally an issue with enterprise users. However, they are overrepresented in malicious traffic due to domain-generation algorithms (DGAs).

> Newly-registered domains are not generally an issue with enterprise users.

I take it this means enterprise users are not generally needing to do anything legit-for-work on a newly registered domain.

Enterprise clicks on newly registered domains tend to be (a) being phished or smished or cryptomined or whatever, or (b) someone reading X or Bsky or HN or ProductHunt's vibe code of the date -- things the enterprise would also like to have blocked.

Consider the CloudFlare/Proofpoint/NextDNS/etc. domain block on new domains much like updating one's HN home page to https://news.ycombinator.com/classic …
