# Big Sur revision by b0gdanw https://gist.github.com/b0gdanw/40d000342dd1ba4d892ad0bdf03ae6ea
# TEMPORARILY disabling (e.g. STOPPING via 'bootout') unwanted services on macOS 11 Big Sur and macOS 12 Monterey:
# This version is for a special boot that optimizes for real-time music performance and streaming video.
# Due to the read-only system volume introduced with macOS Catalina, this script can NOT be run in Recovery mode's Terminal.
# For my purposes I leave WiFi enabled, for streaming video to a local router with no internet connection.
