I didn’t go for the M2 Max setup or 64GB RAM as I do not expect to calculate Universe expansion or render multiple 8K video streams simultaneously on this laptop. Honestly, it’s such a massive step from my 5-year-old Intel macbook that I would still be impressed even with the base M2 model.
It’s a very exciting time to be post-configuring this super powerful laptop using Ansible. I’m using Jeff Geerling’s geerlingguy-mac collection for this, integrated into my own Ansible server as part of the homelab.
If you haven’t used Ansible to configure macOS systems - check it out! I’ve only done the Homebrew part so far, but it’s possible to automate MAS (macOS Apple Store) deployments as well.
Will keep you posted!

Excellent! Apple just released new version of macOS, codenamed Ventura. As always, most of the features are visual and usability improvements, so from Unix point of view I do not expect anything more dramatic than uplift of shells and built-in software.
This said, there’s been quite a few security fixes (more than a hundred, I think) made in this release: HT213488 - macOS Ventura - so that’s great news.

I have published a new video on YouTube recently, this time on a separate YouTube Unix Tutorial TV channel.
That’s right! www.UnixTutorial.TV domain will always point to my YouTube collection of my educational videos, so bookmark it and subscribe if you can.
It’s been a pretty hectic year so far so I’m still not ready to publish new content regularly, but each video helps me get a bit better with recording and publishing so I plan on doing it for a while.
Latest video is here: Video: Testing TCP Connectivity with curl
I’m also going to be updating the pages talking about the same topic, so Test TCP connectivity with curl post is updated with the video embed.

I’ve been a happy user of Virtual Box for most of my desktop needs over the past years. But now and then I like trying other options, like VMware Workstation.
Because I’ve been trying to run some VMware VM image not so long ago, I must have downloaded and installed VMware Player.
Turns out, you can’t install VMware Workstation until the VMware Player is deleted: VMware Workstation won’t install unless you delete VMware Player
I couldn’t find how to deinstall VMware Player via main menu, and I checked that my Linux Mint desktop didn’t have any obviously named VMware packages installed:
So after a quick search online I have found the right approach. We need to use the vmware-installer:
Here’s how it looks: VMware Player uninstall
And that’s it, we now can proceed with VMware Workstation install, this time it should complete successfully: VMware Workstation install in Linux Mint
Hope this helps you, have fun!
If you’re trying to access a website over https URL and curl shows you that certificate has expired or may not be trusted, you are likely to get a message like this:
Good news! You can still override this behaviour by running curl with the –insecure command line.
WARNING: be sure you know what you’re doing! this is especially true to knowing what website you’re trying to access. It may be fine to ignore SSL warnings for a local dev environment on your laptop or for accessing internal URLs in your private infrastructure. But anything on the public Internet that gives you an SSL warning must be reviwed before you progress.
curl –insecure
How it works: curl –insecure will disable certificate checks but will still encrypt the traffic and download the https URL you provided.
I’m slowly getting better with my Python coding, and this means I’m looking to optimise my development setup across available hardware systems (MacBook, Linux desktop, Windows laptop).
I’ve been using Nova for the past year or two, but it’s only available on macOS. On Linux desktop I’m using Sublime Text 4.x, but it’s rather tricky to develop new typing/hotkeys memory switching between editors and operating systems all the time.
With the above in mind, I’m going to try VSCode for a while - it seems sleek and powerful enough to become a default development environment across all my platforms.
Will keep you posted!
