We use CCC, and the clone is not bootable. If you erase and reinstall Big Sur on it, as recommended by Apple, you will see it as an option, but you cannot boot from it. If you then use CCC to clone yourself over it – since you cannot boot from it and use Migration Assistant – it will show up as...

I thought there was a 16" available. :oops: Either way it is a bit "too big" for my needs. Will say, aside from the connection issues – buy those doggles!!11!! – the battery life is phenomenal, it is obviously must faster than my Ancient Mac was, even with notorious bloatware like Adobe. Just...

nice snare rift that. – J.D.

"Forced" to use it after my Ancient MacBook suddenly died and replacement is needed, I am rather pleased with it. The only "complaint," which is more about the M1 chip methinks, is finding an external HD that it will recognize that will make a bootable clone. – J.D.

Hmmmm. . . . Let the Macbook run along during the night. Stayed booted. No shut-down. Tried a reboot. Success! :D So now the final test: t3h d34dly Shutdown! No boot! :confused: You have to disconnect the battery. Once you reattach the powercord, it starts to boot. So it is if by...

So there was this British television show in the mid–2000s. A DCI gets hit by a car and wake up in the early seventies. The title? Of course, it is the song on his iPod which becomes a cassette tape when he wakes up: I like this version, all due respect to the Not-Yet Thin White Duke. There...

You may have the same problem I just developed. My Mac is as in my signature. Suddenly, the Mac turned off. I rebooted, it worked doing the normal surfing for underaged lichen porn . . . shut off. This was with the power cord connected. Would not turn on again! With the power cord connected...

Frankly, everything after 2011 proved superfluous. This latest was an unhelpful LOOK AT ME temper-tantrum.

Do you need your sippy cup, child?

I blame the teeny-boopers with their bobby socks, hot rods, and the rock and roll. And Chad. Because Chad. --J.D.
