Is it looking for a network-accessible drive that may no longer be accessible? (DropBox,GoogleDrive,etc) Is it looking for an Apple Store account? Is the desktop full of files and folders strewn about? Each one requires a process to be started. Does a browser launch at login (Firefox,Chrome,Safari,Opera,etc.) with a lot of windows and/or tabs? ...network traffic with long latency ...

Waiting... Hoping... Got a 14-year-old iMac (C2D,20") to replace...or not. Still runs well, though 4GB ram (pc5300...so slow) is limiting. Spinner HD died long ago, replaced with SSD. Maybe an M1x iMac ? Or an M1x MBP ? max mem, retina display, speed nearly infinite by comparison... Excuse me, gotta get some beers for the cooler over here. And some chips. Back in a few...

M1ssing Register Access Controls Leak EL0 State M1RACLES (CVE-2021-30747) is a covert channel vulnerability in the Apple Silicon “M1” chip. This is a hardware silicon vulnerability 'baked' into the M1 (and A14) cpus, and no software mitigation is possible (save, possibly, running a VM on the bare metal and running your macOS or iOS in the VM, and losing performance).

From the early 1950s thru the mid 1960s, not a word. I did think it strange that there were no non-whites in the small community I grew up in south of Boston MA (given that there certainly were non-whites in Boston metro).

The original had developed sticking keys, non-responsive
