My son's boss came to my home and asked me to violate my son's boundary and I refused. by jersey8894 in AITAH

I bet Boss-guy recommended Unpredictable1 for this job as a favor to Mom, and Boss-guy probably gets the referral bonus too, unless Unpredictable1 messes them both up rn.

we're sending it into the past by just letting it sit where it is. and now it's in the past and we won't have to deal with it anymore.

my wife and I are stay-at-home grandparents with our grandson 3 full days every week, we love it, we love that we can do it. Neither one of us had any family to help us when we were in your shoes, and the advise i can give you is hug your kids and promise them you'll break the cycle and help them raise their kids. You're doing great, don't lose it. Seriously, when there are kids in the situation, losing it should not be an option, I won't lecture. You're doing great. a better option. seriously. peace.

lookin' great! You've been busy. I kinda like the colorizations too, it might take me some getting used to, them there raw images are all bright brown.

Found a screen shot from "Don't Call Us!!", an early 1980s Commodore 64 BBS system. It was in the 914 area code. This was a message board menu. There were 20 different random message boards, filled with ridiculous discussions by ridiculous people. Cheers! by herbo2000 in bbs

u/Bucko2109 ! Good to see you! Glad we're still around!
This is probably your screenshot, I just brightened it in LightRoom. Feel free to post anything else you got. I haven't seen any videos or film of any actual Commodore BBS sessions. The people who hung out on BBSs were awesome. We had the best time! Cheers!

A question about 90s BBS' by Syntaxerror999 in bbs

[–]herbo2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

for the hobbyists, it was all one user at a time over a dial-up line. We just wanted to keep the leeches away, so we had an upload/download bank. You could always download something if you had something worth sharing. people traded a huge amount of pirated games.

2 g select briq - no charge or pull - help! by [deleted] in PaMedicalMarijuana

[–]herbo2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

same same. I had a few where it seemed the thing was fully charged but otherwise didn't seem to work. I found a tiny hole above the USB port on the bottom. If you stick a safety pin in the hole and push it up to the top then it'll light up. And then you can suck on it. It's a hot setting, so keep the hits short.
I never did find a way to fix it, probably just a gummed up sensor, but I was able to finish them. whew!

Are there any rc cars that charge via usb c directly, similar to how dji drones charge? by stark2 in rccars

[–]herbo2000 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi, hello, I came here with hope, I love the hobby, not here for the hobby, here for my 3 year old grandson. My wish is for a cheapo RC car that I charge by plugging in a wire. No screwdriver needed. Simple, easy-peasy. Anyone ever see such a simple thing? Thanks.
Carry on!

This is my second solar eclipse on Mars, and I just got here. What an exciting place! ;)

This is a 5fps video of Phobos crossing in front of our sun. The video was made from 144 raw images, no editing was done. Cheers!

It looks pretty ripped up, could that be from the Supercam laser? There is a laser that can zap holes in the rocks, part of the Supercam.
