# 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.

# NOTE: This script must be run from Terminal within RECOVERY MODE. This version is for macOS High Sierra.
#   There is no need to disable SIP (via csrutil), because recovery mode is not constrained by SIP.
# WARNING: It might enable things that you may not like. Please double check the services in the TODISABLE vars.
#
# For OSes newer than High Sierra, see comments in the original gist author's Catalina version, at

#   (see the "Note about Big Sur" at the top, and there are comments about Monterey further down).
