Fixing up this adjustable keyboard, it was not pivoting properly. And going to give it a Retrobright. Released in 1993 at the same time as the short-lived Centris 610.
Not looking forward to putting this back together. Missing the palm rests
Picked up an Atari 800 on an Auction and these Wireless joysticks came along with it. About twice as thick as the original 2600 joystick. Looks like they are new in box. They use a 9V Battery and fortunately the look unused. Will try once I get THE Atari 800 working.
Rotated in some new Macs. The iMac graphite SE and my Cube. Got both of them online with an router/Ethernet bridge.
Having a really hard time moving from Booksmart to Bookwright. I'd used Booksmart for 20 years for our family phonebooks. I suppose no tech last forever, but I find Bookwright slow and hard to use on a Mac.
Specifics:
The whole process is taking my 4x longer. I suppose I'll get better at it, but such as pain right now.
Love this poster in the background of this Apple Insider video. https://youtu.be/HMZkIIn3zIo?is=QJMqxvtNyEb-vF88
Anyone know what it is? Almost looks like a 1939 World’s Fair mashup.
Looking for advice in Montgomery County Maryland.
We backup on an apartment building that was built 4 years ago. At the time, we warned the builder about not disturbing the root balls on the mature trees that grew on the property line and we co-owned. They established a Limit of Disturbance, and worked with an arborist. We took extensive pictures and had an independent arborist come out that worked for us. They said we wouldn't know for 3-5 years.
4 years later and the mature maple is dead.
Do I have any recourse?
I’m trying to attach these 4 pieces together to form a wood Christmas tree. It’s Baltic birch. These are off cuts from another Christmas tree project (see photo 3)
I’d have done this differently for an original project, but now I’m trying to use these off cuts.
How can I attach these 4 pieces together to make a tree? 🌲
My personal card with details blurred. I used the points from this to buy a discounted QuickTake 100 camera back in 1994! I also still have the QuickTake.
Article on the card.

Very excited to have access to a laser cutter again! Did this Kumiko inspired privacy screen around the HVAC Condenser. The sides are hidden by bushes so they just got pressure treated lattice. Baltic birch is sealed with penetrating epoxy and spar varnish. The framing and base have weep holes to prevent water pooling.
My MicroCenter is old enough to still have up the Software sign for when they had boxed software. I miss the days when there were rows of boxed software. This MicroCenter even had a dedicated Apple section in the dark 1990s.

I have the 2022 Hyundai Santa Fe Hybrid. Lots to love about the car, especially the 30 miles on electric from the hybrid drive train. But there are some major drawbacks that are really annoying me over time. Hank Green called out many of these in his YouTube video, so It seems these problems still exist and why I wouldn't buy a Hyundai/Kai again.
There are other annoying features like seizing control of the wheel, refusing to accelerate and incorrectly saying the car in front of me is pulling away. I'm just tired of fighting the stupid electronics and poor design of this car!
I’m experimenting on bending Baltic birch 3/4”. With 10 cuts it has these ridges. I’d try more cuts but then I’d need a narrower kerf table saw blade.
Any way to not get the ridges? Should I sand them out since I’ll be applying a walnut veneer on the final piece.
I used this calculator to calculate the cuts. https://www.blocklayer.com/kerf-spacingeng
Considered bidding on this PowerBook 180, but I already have one with minimal vinegar screen.
Only later did I notice its elusive companion…I’m pretty sure that is the grey ADB PowerBook mouse.
Someday I will have you! Someone tell me it’s just a trick of the light!
