But by default, your notes, are stored on iCloud. And this script, may not work if everything is in a shitty iCloud folder. I got the needed file by using idevicebackup2.
Well, I may do without my notes, as you apparently can’t make a local folder in the shitty Notes app. Only if you disable iCloud.
There is an app that syncs iCloud notes with Linux, no idea if it works anymore. But what format are the synced notes? I’m not doing any work to convert them.
I just want a bunch of text files, or some other format, that doesn’t require more then a text editor to view.
Won’t turn Mac mini on to use some app either. Even though I do need a script from it. I need to look for a Time Machine backup extractor for Linux. Then I don’t need to turn it on. TIme Machine backs up to my desktop and an external drive. No need to even plug the external drive in. Also, that drive is backed up to my desktop too, well not the Time Machine partition.
Depending on the macOS version, it has built in spyware. Or maybe all macOS versions do. No thanks. Too lazy to block it from the internet. And what’s stopping it from changing it’s MAC address? And if you only allow certain MAC addresses to the internet, what’s stopping it from changing to one of those allowed devices? It can scan the network and find other Mac addresses. Maybe put it in it’s own VLAN, and hope it doesn’t break through the VLAN. Too much work, and too much risk.
If you want access to it over your network, the safest option is to unplug your internet. But what’s stopping the Mac from installing spyware to your other devices?
You could copy what you need to a USB drive, but what’s stopping macOS from installing spyware to the USB drive and infecting Linux when you plug it in?
Tinfoil might stop it. Cover your drive in tinfoil. Maybe your head too.
