Thunderbolt port still supports Firewire, so if you have the correct adapters, you can connect your old Firewire camcorder to digitize cassettes, but with Tahoe, Apple removed the Firewire drivers so they no longer work.
The biggest annoyance for me is the removal of Firewire support with Tahoe. That’s why I keep Sequoia for the time being. I’ll probably create a new APFS volume and dual boot with Sequoia for the foreseeable future for Firewire support.
I updated but then regretted since I learned that Firewire support is now removed. I shoot retro videos with an old Firewire camera so to be able to get footage out of it, I had to stop whatever I was doing and figure out how to create a dual boot system.
Apple doing things like this is quite annoying where the hardware has support for Firewire but software removes it.
Sauna is really helpful for getting rid of them, also the usuals, use clothing made from natural materials, wool, cotton, linen, replace your teflon pans with stainless steel or cast iron, replace plastic utensils with wood or metal, replace your plastic food storage boxes with glass or metal, use a reverse osmosis water filter for your drinking water etc. Having them in your blood is bad but passing them to your children might be called negligence.
I’m glad to see that the public awareness is increasing for this issue.
Not the parent but you can set up Dynamic DNS at home and Wireguard in your router and later use the Wireguard connection to connect to your home network and have a safe tunnel.
May I ask for what do you use it at work? I have a few places I think nix might suit but I can’t really put my finger on it.
