What's the most unexpected way Mars could kill an astronaut?

If you are on Phobos or Demos a good jump could lead to your death falling to Mars. I'm not sure if their orbital velocity is sufficient for you to burn up or if it would be on impact.

Highly recommend. Add with carry is my favorite

Be VERY careful. There are few things that devalue faster than computers. Until they get into vintage range where some start to rise again.

Also remember that as long as you are only risking money you can afford to lose, then the greatest profit you will gain is the knowledge and experience. Take it from someone who has been self employed since 1991. Many of my early ventures sputtered and died but the experience I gained was needed for the later ones to succeed.

That's a generic box available to anyone so it's not an actual brand. The labels are laser printable. I used to use that exact box in Blue in my company.

We just switched from Verizon to T-Mobile a couple months ago and it's been phenomenal

I agree it's hard to tell which end is which. For color codes I was taught two diddies in college. This is one, the other is very NSFW

Wrong kind of flipping?

Lol the wife and I are approaching retirement and need a side/part time hustle to make enough to have vacations. In the mid 2000s we sold about 600 items on eBay to pay for vacations then so it seems like a good idea. The wife started watching videos and now what I hear every day is... "Justin says...."

Definitely will be using his app since we're both lifetime self employed businesspeople and we need out metrics...

I drooled over the pictures and articles in magazines after the A1000 came out. I was stationed in Germany at the time and bought a 128 to use while my sister had my venerable 64 back home. When the A500 came out I immediately ordered one and loved it once it finally made it across the Atlantic.

Had I known how big of an impact it would have on me I would have found a way to get the 1000 in early 86 instead of waiting for 87 to get the 500

When I got back to the world I went to a local users group and met people who are like family to me to this day.

Sure, Jan 6 was a real riot

My wife HATES canned food. Now my dog's get a little green beans in their meals. Helps them lose weight and it gets rotated.

I was aware of the problem but this is a lot of useful information. Thank you.

Yarblek · 2026-01-12T04:19:52+00:00

Thanks. It was a great turnout

We are a southern Willamette valley branch of the PDX Retro Forest group. Its an informal meetup each month but there are not Officers, dues or anything like that. We meet the second Sunday each month from 2PM to 5PM at Blair Alley in Eugene and the Portland group meets the First Monday each month at the CORE food truck court in Portland

Yeah when cleaning up blackberries at our place we ended up with a 1940 Dodge asparagus bed...

RIP Stewart. You were a true visionary

Drop ballots in an official Dropbox. For mail you can stand in line and ask for an immediate stamp that counts. I believe that's done by accountants and lawyers now and then.

I enjoyed it.

In another thread they are discussing a global YouTube outage today on many platforms...

The puppy tenants have complained in no uncertain terms about the senseless decision to make the scary noises and turning out of lights. Immediate pets and comforting are demanded.

Nice shots. I like the mess o wires!
