@timapple FWIW, the Darwin binaries built by GitHub work for me. These binaries are not notarized, so you need to jump through the system hoops of allowing unsigned binaries.

@iChris Great post. I do not post nearly as often as I’d like, because I mostly think, “who wants to hear from me?” I’m not sure if I’ve ever had a “real life” friend mention my blog. As far as I’m aware, they are not aware of its existence. If I’m being honest, I’m not sure how I feel about that. With those things in mind, I’ve always thought of my blog as a public journal that no one reads except for me.

@collin Happy Birthday. I, too, will turn 40 later this year. 1985 was a good vintage.

@sod The adapter chain is a bit ridiculous, but I am very glad that these can still be used with modern computers. It’s always sad when hardware is obsoleted and there is no way to make use of it anymore. I’m always amazed when iPods still sync with modern macOS, for instance.

@dfj I like it. I own a Speedmaster, even though I don’t race or fly to the moon. 😁 What is the battery life like? I’m assuming is just a replaceable cell battery.
