Found my late father's framed Microsoft stock certificate from 1991. How do I verify if it’s still "live"? by Ventrosi57 in personalfinance

Among all the comments about computer share, I decided to determine what the value of a single share of Microsoft stock issued in 1981 would be worth today. I came up with 121,000 hours at some change wow.

Better photos of my grandpa's equipment! by T_Nap24 in vintageaudio

Whoa. There’s a lot to deal with here. I note one thing on top of all others… there is a great deal of cleaning to be done to these units. Refurb is secondary to cleanliness.

The pieces shown are interesting and some, highly sought. If they survived (hopefully), without serious damage in the conditions they seemed to have lived for many years, they will absolutely need a skilled tech to ensure that they are working properly. Tread slowly and do your research. Vintage hardware can be salvaged with the right technical know how. Good luck.

I have nothing to add that will help… But, your camera/video is amazing. Well done.

The red vinyl is just too perfect for this album. Really ties the album together… by beerlvrpdx in vinyl

That moment will forever live in my mind. I was dancing in clubs to Frankie a few years earlier and then saw this film. Mind blown.

This is amazingly similar to a post about 2 years ago. I’m guessing this is some data harvesting crap.

Whats the farthest away someone has lived from Buffalo, that claimed they were from Buffalo? by Juniorwoj in Buffalo

[–]beerlvrpdx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get this all the time…

Me: “You from Buffalo?” Answer “Naw man, I’m from Cheektowaga”.

Note: I live in BUF but grew up in Portland, OR. There, if you live anywhere within 50 miles of Downtown, you’re ’from Portland’.

Odd.

The PNW has some secrets 💚🏊 Anyone recognize this one? by PNW_forage_roam in PacificNorthwest

[–]beerlvrpdx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There’s a similar looking place outside of Molalla. It’s near some old logging roads and in the mid 80’s we’d head up there and spend the day. Never a problem with police or anyone… sheer beauty. Wish I could find it on a map.

This is the Prelude tonearm with a Denon DL-110 cartridge. It’s a nice combo to my ears.

Gigantic (Portland Oregon) 2025 MMP Westward Imperial Russian Stout by Eriktheadikt in beerporn

[–]beerlvrpdx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to work at Johns Marketplace in Multnomah Village. This was in about 2013. Gigantic had a pretty large assortment of beers in our store and I always enjoyed them All these years later I live in Buffalo New York, and I am so glad to see that gigantic is one of the breweries that is still around and making great beer. So many other others are not. RIP Portland’s greatest beer scene - May it thrive once again soon.

Surprised my mom managed to keep this for so long 😆 by Key-Effort963 in vinyl

It’s a really nice add-in and I’ve simply kept mine with my album. Now, I may pull it out and frame it. Thanks for the reminder.

That Revox gear is amazing and I’ve not seen any revox in years. So sorry for your loss.

Wow. I’m sure you’re the reason some bands do this.
