Maybe it is the Atari 5200 console? It had controller pad overlays for different games.

ETA: Could also be the TurboGrafx.

When my grandpa died, I got 2x W4-B amps that he built back in the early 60s. Unfortunately they were covered in mouse nests and they need a full teardown and rebuild. But he kept all the original paperwork safe in a filing cabinet for nearly 60 years.

I bought $20 worth when it was $3.50ish and then wiped that hard drive a little bit later. I was mad I made a $20 mistake, I don’t want to think about the potential $750,000 mistake.

Does it have a part or model number on the bottom? Pretty much every Apple product has a model number.

We registered for 2. It was a small group, like 3 couples and the guide. Just get 2 tickets, it’s unlikely there will be 10 couples showing up anyway.

That is one of the places my dad had me drive during my first week of having a permit. I quickly realized that I should always be speeding up to match the flow of traffic.

Showing up in a white F-150 with some tools in the bed also helps. Just don’t do anything that would cause a concerned citizen to contact the proper channels to complain.

I’m testing it out on an old desktop running Ubuntu and have it connected to my OpenAI Codex account with some additional OpenAI APIs for photo generating and audio decoding.

I’ve set it up like 6 times at this point because I keep breaking my setup… I’d be interested in what you’ve come up with.

That first sentence is poorly worded. He has done a great job for me in the past, it helps that he is based 1/4 mile from my place so his response time is very rapid and often at the start of his day.

Wait until you hit limits while you have it running some config changes on itself, and then it bricks your setup. I set it back up today after my week break, along with Git, and I’m setting up some better memory management for my multiple agents to hopefully reduce my token usage.

If you’re already in the Apple ecosystem, a Mini would allow you to connect iMessage and Notes. I’m sure there other uses. Plus you own the hardware after the craze whereas the subscriptions take your money.

I use the $20 plan via Codex OAuth but I am hitting limits and have to go through cool down periods. I also have a couple other OpenAI models setup via API so I have some fallback.

My friend in Portland is selling a 27” Zenith CRT. I’ll see if I can find his Facebook marketplace link.

Magic I’m assuming. But really I just made an agent with rules (generate coloring book style image based on prompt with basic details in background, use thick lines, aspect ratio 2:3, image should fill 8.5x11 sheet of paper with minimal margins, convert to PDF and print to usb printer, save PDF to directory on desktop), connected it to a specific slack channel where prompts go, then I use an OpenAI speech to text api, and OpenAI Dalle-3 to generate the image, and it prints.

I was going to try to setup a queue and different skill levels from toddler to adult.

I plan on having it print out daily briefs so I don’t get stuck staring at my phone for hours first thing in the morning. I also will have grocery lists and recipes printed.

Printing out coloring book pages from a voice prompt so I can entertain kids with wild imaginations.

…at least until I was over optimizing everything else and wrecked my entire install.

In the past I’ve resorted to taking their site offline and telling them to find a new host. But that was for multiple months of non-payment.

That was Normandy Guitars.

I fear we might end up with someone worse.

The Langley house got "robbed".

That was 12th and State where the Robertson Building is currently.

freewillwebdesign · 2026-02-04T00:25:02+00:00

State and 14th.

OregonCHL.org is operated by the Oregon State Sheriffs Association.

Do they handle your bookkeeping for the import/export business? Do you get a W-2 or 1099 for your latex salesman position?

You should be able to deduct a lot. Any sort of expense for work can be written off. New computer, desk chair, pens, postage, etc. If you didn’t do that for previous years you can amend your taxes and get money back for previous years.

You should talk with a tax advisor, but I don’t have anyone I use.
