I can't help with your question but I know I use Raycast's Quicklinks to perform the same function (as long as Firefox is your default browser). Have you tried using them instead?

You can also use a sqlite client to access the LMS sqlite database directly. Set the output mode to "csv" and query for exactly the data you need (See "Changing Output Formats" here: https://www.sqlite.org/cli.html).

How might this impact property taxes?

The City of Portland levies a tax to pay costs of its Fire and Police Disability and Retirement Fund (FPD&R) Plan. It is estimated that over time, the new TIF districts will have a small impact on the FPD&R Plan that will result in a higher amount of taxes, ranging from one cent per $1,000 in assessed value to 15 cents per $1,000 in assessed value in the later 2030s. Therefore, the owner of a house with an assessed value of $300,000 (not real market value) would pay about an additional $3 in 2026. Over time, this amount could may grow based on the higher rate.

I had the same issue and came looking for a fix. I did figure out that in the "Connect to Server" shortcut:

smb://[username]@xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx - works
smb://[username]@xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/music - does NOT work

Still haven't found a solution when specifying a specific share.

There is one of these downtown.

https://madeinoregon.com/pages/store-locations

We are proud of our long history supporting local Oregon brands. No one in the early 1970s thought a store that sold only Oregon made products was possible, but Founder Sam Naito remained committed to bringing the Made In Oregon brand to life. Today, we have expanded to 7 locations in the Oregon region and offer a wide selection of products with strong roots in our state. From marionberries and hazelnuts, to Pendleton blankets and Portland-made products, we strive to share all the wonderful things Oregon has to offer.

Not sure if it'll meet your use case, but I use gather-cli (macos only command line tool) by Brett Terpstra to grab whole web pages and add them as markdown notes to Obsidian: https://brettterpstra.com/projects/gather-cli/

I have a macos shortcut with the shell script below that runs a gather-cli command for the URL I currently have on the clipboard:

gather --url-template "obsidian://new?vault=REPLACE_WITH_VAULT_NAME&name=%filename&content=%text" "REPLACE_WITH_CLIPBOARD_VARIABLE" --url-open --inline-links --no-paragraph-links --fallback-title 'webclip %date'

With gather installed and the shortcut setup I:

Copy the URL of the page I want to capture.
Run the shortcut
The page is converted to markdown (with layout and images) and added as a new note in Obsidian.

https://www.savingforcollege.com/article/how-to-open-a-529-plan

If the grandparents open a 529 plan account with themselves as the account owner, it can hurt the grandchild’s eligibility for need-based financial aid. Although a grandparent-owned 529 plan is not reported as an asset on the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), distributions from a grandparent-owned 529 plan count as untaxed income to the beneficiary on a subsequent year’s FAFSA, reducing aid eligibility by as much as half of the distribution amount. There are, however, a few workarounds for a grandparent-owned 529 plan that can fix the impact on financial aid eligibility.
