    Does not surprise me one bit, once you come up with a design that is manufactured in china (and I am assuming this is where LMG is buying them from?), its basically open season.

    Been lurking this thread for a while now, figured I'd stop in and say hi!
     
    My truck is nothing special, dirt cheap '97 Toyota Tacoma base model rescued from 225k miles worth of pool repair duty. 4cyl, 5 speed. It's not quick at all, but surprisingly fun to drive! Im too tall to comfortably fit in a Miata, though I did have one for some time and loved it.
     
    Been a car guy for most of my life, just too poor to foot the gas bill for something pretty like a 61 caddy.

    Well, I'll put in my best to put my 2 cents in then, make this thread atleast a little constructive.
     
    This is pretty big for jailbreaking, but there is something that atleast to me is a little concerning. Even the current "soft" jailbreaks do not work on A12 and A13 devices. What does this mean? Apple knew of this exploit. I am almost 100% certain Apple was just waiting down the clock until somebody found it. The fact that something like this exists doesn't really surprise me, nor does it worry me. As others have said, this requires physical access to the device, and at that point it's GG anyways.\
     
    I am a fan of apples products, I use an '08 Mac Pro as my file server, a 2014 Macbook Air for school, and both my personal and work phones are Apple made (XS Max and 5s). I 100% understand why people don't like Apple. I didn't used to like Apple until I used their products more often, but this reddit PCMR group think BS is really tiring for basically everybody involved who isn't blind enough to jive with "haha apple bad tim apple make hot product go boom boom" having never used or even interacted with an Apple product. As a company they are not perfect, no company is, but come on guys.
     
    I have 4 or 5 complete part phones that are A11 or older, and 13 5s and 5c motherboards that are all ICL. All I hope of this ROM exploit is that we can find a way to bypass icloud locks again, like you could on older phones.

    If PCGuy is correct, then it is not broken in a way that disfavors based off sex in such a way that it is designed at such. The sex that has been disfavored have proven themselves to be unfavorable, hypothetically.

    I'm not a lawyer, but if Corellium are copying iOS and selling access to it then they are indeed infringing on Apple's copyrights on iOS, as well as on other Apple software such as iTunes.
     
     
    The original court filing is here: Apple Inc Vs Corellium, LLC
     
     
     
    What Apple is suing for:


    TLDR; Corellium is copying Apple's copyrighted Software, redistributing it and selling access to it. Apple is suing them to force them to cease infringing, distributing and selling their intellectual property.
     
     
     
     
    And for balance here is Corellium's recent response to the filing: https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/6532002-Corellium-Answer.html
     


    Well, if Apple didn't make it clear before then they certainly did by suing them. ?

    I'm not going to quote it all as it's quite long, but if you read their response their claim is that even though they use exact copies of Apple's software, they 'transformed' Apple's original work by offering the software in a virtual environment instead of on a physical device, and that their use of Apple's software is "fair use" as it's not a substitute for Apple's products (iPhone) as it's a virtualised client and not a physical device.
     

     
     
    The claims made by Corellium that they have been working with Apple and have Apple's support are quite a strenuous connection to make.

     
    Basically comes down to a personal conversation that allegedly took place with a single Apple employee in which Corellium claims an Apple employee described a different software developed and owned by a different company which was run by one of the people who later went on to be involved in Corellium as being "awesome" back in 2011.
     
    (Disclaimer: There is more in this section where Corellium claims Apple has a good relationship with Corellium employees, however it has been redacted from public)
     
    The other claim that Apple was "working with Corellium" is that Corellium participated in Apple's "Bug Bounty Program". Participating in a bug bounty program does not give you permission to redistribute and sell access to their licensed software.

     
     
    Corellium deny all claims made by Apple that they are infringing on Apple's copyright/Intellectual property and request that the court dismisses all proceedings against them.
     
    TLDR; Corellium claim they're not infringing on Apple's intellectual property because they are 'transforming' the software by offering it in a virtualised environment instead of on a physical device (phone).
    Corellium also claims that Apple endorses their company and has a long-standing working relationship with them, however based on what has been presented in Corellium's response (by participating in the Bug Bounty Program, and claims that someone who later went on to work for Corellium previously had a conversation with someone who worked at apple back in or around 2011), is basically bullshit and/or heavily overstated.
     
     
    Apple isn't the bad guy here. Corellium dun goofed.

    Unless you want more than 2 addressable RGB channels you do NOT need the Lighting Node Pro. You can join Corsair RGB devices together as shown in the wiring diagram you linked.

    That PSU has a USB port for data logging and fan control, it goes in to the Commander Pro as it acts as an internal USB hub.

    Vega scales frequency dynamically with temperature, voltage and power, so don't be bothered by GPU-Z readings.
     
    You should push memory frequency first, that's key for AMD cards in general
