It's a uniparty and it's not there to help you, prole.
Please explain how malware would get on my laptop now in a way that it didn't, oh, say, in the last 12 years?
Browsing from a 12 year old laptop running Win7 ... what's the issue?
Weird, I thought I added the URL to this post, but I don't see it. So here it is
I noticed the "coming soon" sign a while back and now it's open. It's definitely a sense of "déjà vu", it looks pretty much like a Value Village in its layout, prices are the same. Lots of clothes, pots and pans, a few shelves of electronics, and lots of DVDs and VHS. Plus it's a 5 minute walk from the St Jacques Renaissance.
The banhammer is pounded quite randomly over there.
T.C. is pretty cool
One of the best theme songs ever.
I thought those were just standard embossed letters but they're actually stickers and look really good. This is why I like physical media. And 1980s cheese.
Couldn't believe it. Not a big fan or anything but I paid 10$ for both sets.
Another one of my lucky finds. It's in pretty good shape but needs new belts. It's a monster to take apart and I don't have any belts so it's a bookend for now. 20$ is reasonable, and it looks so cool.
Heathkit Model O-12 tube oscilloscope. Found this among old suitcases and kid's toys at a Friperie Renaissance/Goodwill in Montréal. It still works, it's clean, I didn't need to do anything and it powered up.
Sure, at step 17 you are certain it's showing ngwt14 but it fails then takes you to an almost twenty year old "identify the motorcycles" with 8 pictures of a partial wheel... or is it a bicycle? And do they mean plural as in for the whole thing or in each image?
Besides Value Village and Renaissance, what stores do you go to, and for what type of goods? I mostly look for physical media, and electronics that I consider valuable.
I haven't found too many other stores yet in Montréal, but there's Friperie Notre-Dame in Lachine. They have decent physical media.
On the other hand there was the Habitat for Humanity Re-store, the one in St-Henri. They sold books and some records. It just went out of business and I can certainly see one reason why: selling donated or trash-picked furniture for as much as twice the price of a new item. Crazy.
I think they got upset at me one day because I saw a 9" Sony Trinitron in perfect condition with no price tag and the cashier just said "five bucks" and I barely had the time to slap a fiver on the counter when the manager came running at Mach 2 but too late.
I wanna seed a few discussions here... Anyone else look for HD-DVDs or 4K discs? I lucked out to find a HD-DVD player for 14$ with remote, and a XBOX drive that I can't figure out how to use on a PC. I'm still holding out to see if I can find a 4K Blu-ray player next.
So far I found the first season of Battlestar Galactica on HD-DVD in a nice picture case. Found Midway on a 4K/Blu-ray release, I don't even think I'd enjoy the movie, but how cool is that?
No idea what I'm doing here so I'll just type out whatever pops into my head.
Has anyone noticed that in the last few months the offer of DVDs and Blu-rays at Renaissance has shrunk and on top of it, the prices vary a lot store by store? Some Renaissances sell Blu-rays at $4.50 while some like Cote Des Neiges are at $8?
And you still need to check for scratches, or missing discs, or if it's the right disc.
Uh huh, but collecting Blurays is just silly I've been told.
