Removal of McAfee from OSX

Note: This was written in 2015, it may be out of date now.

There are a lot of commands here which I use sudo if you don't know what you're doing with sudo, especially where I rm you can severely screw up your system.

There are many reasons which you would want to remove a piece of software such as McAfee, such as not wanting it to hammer your CPU during work hours which seems like primetime for a virus scan.

I intend this to be a living document, I have included suggestions from peoples' replies.

TLDR: I now add the following snippet to all my Dockerfiles:

# If host is running squid-deb-proxy on port 8000, populate /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/30proxy
# By default, squid-deb-proxy 403s unknown sources, so apt shouldn't proxy ppa.launchpad.net
RUN route -n | awk '/^0.0.0.0/ {print $2}' > /tmp/host_ip.txt
RUN echo "HEAD /" | nc `cat /tmp/host_ip.txt` 8000 | grep squid-deb-proxy \
  && (echo "Acquire::http::Proxy \"http://$(cat /tmp/host_ip.txt):8000\";" > /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/30proxy) \
  && (echo "Acquire::http::Proxy::ppa.launchpad.net DIRECT;" >> /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/30proxy) \
  || echo "No squid-deb-proxy detected on docker host"

Twitter Web Client Inline Image Removal

If you're a heavy user of the Twitter web client like me then you'll find the new inline preview feature extremely intrusive as it breaks up the timeline too much. If I wanted to use facebook or linkedin then I'd be using facebook or linkedin. Having said that, cards in Twitter are great and the ability to preview media before jumping off site is really cool - but it should be my choice, not have everything foisted on my timeline.

That the mobile client allows for this with a setting is even more annoying.

So here's the fix. This only works in Chrome but I'm sure an enterprising person could do something similar for Safari and Firefox using the same CSS. Pull requests to update instructions for other browsers are of course very welcome.
