I have just finished transferring all 46 blog posts I’ve made on this platform into Apple Notes, in a folder named "10C Salvage."
I started with the oldest, copying the relevant text & pasting into a new note each time, then removing the links in the title and posting date, leaving them as text-only.
There were formatting issues, resolved by putting spaces between paragraphs which had been there in the original but lost in the copy/paste process.
@variablepulserate That would require the aquisition of certain cable/adapters which I don’t yet have.
@variablepulserate I have an M1 MacBook Air with the same Thunderbolt port capability as the M2. I can use more than one external display by using a USB-C dock. This one has HDMI, 3 x USB 3.1 ports, Gigabit Ethernet & pass-through PD USB-C. I connect one external monitor to the HDMI port & the other to a USB 2 DisplayLink external video adaptor purchased in 2008 & still able to work with the M1 because the DisplayLink drivers are continually updated.
@streakmachine I still have a soft spot for Word 5.1(a) and its associated Excel 3.1(a) as supplied with my first Mac, a 1993 Mac Classic.

@streakmachine Want to have fun with other operating systems on your Mac? Download UTM from https://mac.getutm.app.
Then choose “Download" rather than the "Mac App Store" option. The former will work free of charge, the latter wants payment.
I’ve been taking a trip down memory lane with Mac OS 9.2.1 being emulated from a 1.13 GB virtual machine and a 310 MB disk image.
Once set up, have a look at the gallery of virtual devices if you don’t want to set up your own.

A brief history of Physics.
Aristotle said a bunch of stuff that was wrong. Galileo and Newton fixed things up. Then Einstein broke everything again. Now, we’ve basically got it all worked out, except for small stuff, big stuff, hot stuff, cold stuff, fast stuff, heavy stuff, dark stuff, turbulence, and the concept of time.
@variablepulserate Someone suggested they need to shift a bunch of the 13-inchers, but that’s illogical. The design is just that little bit different with the addition of the MagSafe port, the 2020 version didn’t have enough room between the Thunderbolt ports & the hinge to fit a comparatively lobg MagSafe port. The things are made from recycled aluminium anyway & could be recycled again if excess stock was the problem.
@streakmachine The cut-off date for Ventura is 2017 for MacBook Pros & iMacs. The oldest machines supported by macOS Ventura are from 2017, so there’s still life in your old Intel-powered machines yet. Here’s a full breakdown of the supported Macs for Ventura:
iMac – 2017 and later
iMac Pro
MacBook Air – 2018 and later
