Aren't there any reasonable apple users that don't moan and groan the same anti apple stuff every time the slightest little thing happens?
And why don't you move to Windows and receive those very other day updates? That will give you lots to complain about. I understand how complex computers have become and how hard it can be to prevent issues.
I applaud Apple for what they do. I deplore users who love to complain for the sake of complaining. They should be banned from using Apple products, which frankly, are too good for them. Smilies were invented to add some subtlety to online written communications. In this case, they communicate sarcasm and the emojis used were correctly employed. Next time, when a contributor includes emojis, think about what made them consciously decide to include those in the post.
As a matter of fact, MORE people here should use emojis since there are a large number of readers for whom English is not their first language. Thank you for reading.:D. Man 10.11.6 is running fine on my 12' rMB do I want to rattle the bee's nest? Wait until you crash, lose your data, scream so loud you have a stroke, and then update. Ugh, ANOTHER security update? Can't apple EVER get ANYTHING right?;):rolleyes: Aren't there any reasonable apple users that don't moan and groan the same anti apple stuff every time the slightest little thing happens?

I've been banging my head against this problem for weeks now, trying to figure out what 'kernel task' could possibly be demanding 95% of my 2012 rMBP's resources.:mad: Not sure about others' experience here, but not only has this not fixed my kernel_task errors, but now I'm experiencing even more memory/CPU headaches. Every hour or so almost all of my apps will become unresponsive, they can't be brought to the front or quit normally. If I force quit them then I can easily open them again, so it's not an issue with total load on the system (2012 rMBP/16GB/750GB with 120GB free).
I've already run fsck and other housecleaning tasks and restarted multiple times. I'm about to throw this *&$% computer out the window. Installed this on my 2015 rMBP - I walked away while it was installing, came back about 15 minutes later to a black screen, hit the trackpad and got the colored pinwheel.
Waited 10 minutes and nothing but the colored wheel. Powered off and on, login screen appeared, and I entered my password. Then the 'spoked' wheel appeared and stayed. I left it for 15 minutes with no change. Powered off, booted in safe mode, tried to login and got the spoked wheel again. Started some Googling and eventually followed the procedure here: (thank goodness I had an Administrator account set up). Used Terminal to delete the 4 files and then restarted.
After that my login went fine.
