Nope. That is just for T2 macs. Anything prior installs like on any PCs

Yeah, like: tell me you’re American without telling me you’re American

In France they don’t care unless you pirate French content

If you own the domain you can do everything. iCloud has a very generous 50gb plan for 1€ per month

Yep, check Orion browser

LMDE is snappy as hell and stable as a rock

LMDE is fucking fantastic

You are probably the best candidate for something like LazyVim

Same…

Nice

Fedora might run well but LMDE will 100%

The battery is definitely replaceable but in latest models used to be glued on… I haven’t checked on the Apple silicon models… worse case the Apple Store can do it for you for 70/80€ You can also remove the glue yourself, there must be an iFixit tutorial on YouTube for it

Nice

Ouch… I had this years ago but now I am lucky as the drivers are probably embedded in the kernel

what distro have you tried?

noice! I guess you had to setup the wifi drivers while connected on ethernet, right?

i am not expecting any SSD to be worn out unless the previous owner was into heavy workloads, which isn't the case for a lot of mac users. You can technically write over the whole SSD hundreds of thousands of time before losing some capacity. Assuming the OS runs on BTRS you'll be fine as the file system will auto flag bad sectors.

thanks, yes I did swap the numbers, this machine is from 2012

nothing, they just worked

even if they cannot be upgraded they are incredibly well built (excluding those with butterfly keyboards, steer away from those) and will likely outlive any PC you might have from the same year
