Ironically, perhaps, Im listening to Nora Ephrons book I Remember Nothing, while I mow the lawn.
Im going to be 59 years old in a few months. I find this to be unfathomable. Thats just shy of sixty, which is absolutely ludicrous and not at all believable, or even remotely humorous. Thats old people territory. This is when you join a cohort of shuffling geriatrics who get cheap movie theater tickets, free rides on the bus, and pudding for dessert. Old as fuck, as the kids like to say.
*Advice Needed*
I have a Macbook Pro 2017 which runs on Ventura. Because I was not using it much I missed that macOS Ventura has reached its end of life and it's not being updated anymore. The laptop is fine, a bit slower than 9 years ago, and with some light orangy patches on the screen. I really don't feel like it's time to get rid of it yet. So, dear nerds of the , what can I do with this nice old Mac to keep using it
