Been doing Macs since 1987 or so and just today I posted a question about the new Passkey thing that’s coming with macOS, iOS, and iPadOS in the fall wondering if anybody had more details than I was able to find on googling about it a bit. This is one of the good lists where one can ask a question you don’t know the answer to and actually get helpful answers. Open Office is the only one I’ve got installed since my wife gets documents in it from one of her association people and it doesn’t reference MW…so opening them in MW and exporting as something else should work nicely if you can get Mojave installed (and MW) on another drive. Might also see if Libra Office or Neo Office or one of those other Office like packages will import MW files…I’ve no idea as I’ve never used MW and only rarely those other things. Me…I actually kept my bride’s 2013 or so MacBook Air when she got her new M1 for things like this…and so far it hasn’t been necessary. VirtualBox is free to use but is also probably harder than just installing Mojave on an external drive. The Parallels idea isn’t all that hard either…but it does require spending money for Parallels. I’m sure that many of us here would be happy to sort of email talk you through the process…although Adam might prefer it be taken off line so if you’re interested in something like that drop me your email in PM if one can do that on the website…or you can leave a comment on my travel blog at with it and I can ask questions and help you figure out if doing this is a viable thing within your comfort level. Then use Startup Disk to change to the external and boot, install MW, and open/export the files. I would think installing an older OS on a portable drive that would run MW and using it to export into something useful today or at least importable into Pages or something would be a lot easier than the Parallels idea…that requires Parallels and it’s a bit harder to do than getting a Mojave installer and running it…then selecting the external disk instead of the normal boot drive that’s a newer version of macOS. ![]()

( 347) One of Pythagoras' followers, Philolaus made the first, though awkward attempt to draw a true picture of the Solar System, by suggesting that the sky, the planets, the Sun, the moon, the Earth and the "Counter earth" rotate around the Central Fire. Merely a generation later, Pythagoras (born 572 B.C.) declared the Earth a sphere, and it is safe to assume, he also attributed a spherical shape to the Moon, Sun and stars. Anaximander also made the first attempt to draw a map of the entire inhabited world. However, despite his brilliant estimates on the structure of the Earth and the Sun and their obvious globular shape, Anaximander described the Earth as a short cylinder, perhaps in the effort to explain the visible flatness of his home planet. He believed that the Sun is the size of the Earth. He speculated that the Earth was suspended freely at equal distance from all other heavenly bodies! Anaximander estimated the Moon's "orbit" to be 19 times the size of the Earth and the Sun's orbit 28 times the size of the Earth. ( 348)Īnother Greek thinker Anaximander (about 611-546 B.C.) is the first known challenger to the flat Earth theory. ![]() However, despite his famous ability to predict a solar eclipse, he still pictured the Earth as a flat disk floating in the ocean, which was itself contained in a starry sphere. After a trip to Egypt, he founded the so-called Ionian school of Greek astronomy. The result was a startling string of discoveries, which gave humanity its first chance to see the world as it is.Īccording to Greek historians, Thales of Miletus founded such sciences as mathematics and philosophy in the late 500s B.C. The Greeks borrowed extensive astronomical knowledge from the Egyptians and Babylonians, however unlike their predecessors, Greek astronomers managed to combine observations with an active and persistent effort to explain the origin and the design of the Universe through science rather than myths. Prehistoric structures like Stonehenge point to their architects' awareness of astronomical phenomena such as the movement of celestial bodies, however there is no sign of human investigation into the physical properties of the Moon, Sun or stars, until the rise of the Greek civilization. Along with the movement of the Moon and stars, it had to prompt questions about the dimensions and shape of the world. Yet, the Sun had a mysterious capability to make a night-long trip "underground" to the opposite side of the world and reappear over the eastern horizon every morning. Those living on the shores of great oceans could justifiably see them as the edge of the world extending endlessly into the abyss. ![]() There were no hints of other worlds' existence, let alone their similarity to the Earth. The night sky was peppered with bright dots of light and the lonely flat disk of the Moon. According to the 20th century historians, to a scientifically unarmed inhabitant of the pre-historic world, the Earth looked flat. ![]() However, drawing an even approximate picture of the Universe with conceivable travel destinations required centuries of overcoming counterintuitive concepts. The idea of flight was probably obvious to the earliest humans, from observing birds and objects carried by the wind. Before humans could achieve space flight or even start dreaming about it, they had to discover its possibility. ![]() ![]() The game also topped the 2021 list for peak number of concurrent players - CS:GO reached almost 1.2 million players in a single hour in its peak, with New World claiming second place.

Reading further posts I read that I should try to setup two Network Adapters in the guest OS: It is was not clear to me that bridged networking only works with routers and not cable modems? When enabled, VirtualBox connects to one of your installed network cards and exchanges network packets directly, circumventing your host operating system's network stack. ![]() This is for more advanced networking needs such as network simulations and running servers in a guest. I do only have a cable modem and not a router. I think you may have hit the nail on the head. So what steps must I take to ensure that Bridged Adapter works?

Turn!: The 1960s Folk-Rock Revolution, which documented the birth and heyday of folk-rock in the 1960s. The image below is believed to be a replica of the original monument. The fate of the Shafter monument is not documented, but is thought to have either been destroyed and scattered by the native tribes or scavenged and used in the construction of early houses and other buildings by settlers. Eventually the community of Monument grew up nearby, thought to be the oldest Anglo community in what is now Lea County. The spring was first occupied by Anglo buffalo hunters near the end of the years in which buffalo were plentiful on the plains. The country to the north is for fifty miles, hard high prairie, to the south and west sandy grass in all directions, of luxuriant growth, of the finest quality found on the plains wood abundant (roots) for fuel, and good building stone in the hills near by (limestone).” It can be seen for several miles in all directions… Monument spring is a very large spring of excellent water, furnishing enough for several thousand head of horses. ![]() ![]() This monument is of nearly white stone, about eight feet in diameter at the base, four at the top, and 7 1/2 feet high. Gil Hinshaw quotes Shafter as writing the following about the monument (1), “Monument Spring is so named from a monument I had built on a hill southwest and 1/12 miles distant from the spring. Shafter is said to have ordered a structure erected to help make the location easier to find on the nearly flat prairie. Pursuing them, they came across a large spring in the New Mexico Territory. At a landmark then known as Dug Spring, believed to be located near the Texas-New Mexico border in what is now Winkler County, Texas and Lea County, New Mexico, they were attacked by a group of Apaches. They were searching for Apaches and looking for water sources, the latter was known to be rare between the Concho and Pecos rivers. In the summer of 1875, Shafter was leading troops from the 10th Cavalry and 24th Infantry based in of Fort Concho. Shafter retired in 1901 and lived in Bakersfield, California until his death in 1906. He continued to serve during the Spanish-American War in 1898.
