My neck is stiff, I think I slept weird last night, taking some pain medicine (advil), drinking coffee and performing some system updates.

Didn't we just have a conversation like this?

About to head to bed at 6am. Ugh
I've been awake about 40 min and was about to ask if you even slept... but you apparently now sleeping
Yes, got five hours. My daughter woke up early, came into my room and snuggled with me around nine this morning. So I slept very well.

I post what I can when I can. This week has seen the most activity from me at SW in ages.

And from a lot of people. We are heading back to historic high posting rates and almost historic high view rates, which almost never happen together.

Started internet recovery on my MacBook Pro.
Apple only lets it recover to the original OS. So back to OS X Lion.
Logged in and now it is downloading macOS Sierra.
The fun part was the old Mac App Store could not handle the 2 factor auth on my iCloud account. Turns out you have to type your password and then the 6 digit code tacked onto your password and then it accepts it.Going to troubleshoot the weird wireless behavior I was having again with a clean macOS install and see what I want to do with the laptop.

Yeah. It was flaky before. That is why I decided to wipe it in the first place.
It steadily got worse. So I expect to have the same issues again.
But it is not my laptop. It is a company machine. So once I troubleshoot it, and replace/repair if needed, it needs to be reloaded clean yet again and set aside as spare or I have to buy it out.

If its hardware is flaky and it's an older machine, I'd pitch it unless it's something you can replace yourself. I hate keeping flaky crap around.

was only the wireless. so if it stays flaky, I can replace just that easily enough.
