My mother-in-law lives with us and has been diagnosed with Alzheimers. We've been dealing with it for about a year but things are progressively getting worse. What are options for care?

She gets social security, and we don't have a lot of money ourselves and are no longer able to be with her 24/7. We are in Maryland, and are scared of what we can do. Will her medicare do anything? Is it too late for something like long term care insurance? We have no idea where to start.

Thanks for any insight.

Install OS X from USB

Hi all, I am not extremely well versed in the Apple ecosystem, but recently I was able to acquire a 2018 MacBook Pro from my company's surplus and wanted to play around with it. However, when I go to do a recovery on it, it forces me to connect to the company's device management and installs a bunch of junk I don't want. I spoke to our IT, and they said they won't remove it from the device management pool until it is out of their warranty period which evidently is still a year or so.

My question is, if I were to be able to install from USB instead of from the internet, would it allow me to bypass the device management, or will it still prompt once I've got everything installed and connected?

If I CAN install from USB, how would I go about getting a Ventura install image without another Mac to download from? I currently only have Windows systems otherwise.

Essentially I am trying to see if it is possible to use it without the device management stuff, because if not I am just going to return it to our surplus.

Thanks!
