Tech garbage #apple #macosx edition:

In Mac OS X Tahoe (and probably Sequoia), the OS downloads between 14G and 40G of these stupid aerial flyover videos. I never asked for this bullshit. I deleted the files and they came back.

~/Library/Application Support/com.apple.wallpaper/aerials/videos

Any way to permanently disable this crap?
