The US federal attack on Portland has resulted in the best advertisement for a city that I have ever seen. Round-the-clock joy, community solidarity and silliness that much of the West has lost and longs for.

After looking at the photos I see they have the same affliction I have.

Seems fairly different, since it doesn't need the external cartridge.

Anyone out there have schematics, boot cartridge ROM dumps for the Philips P2000B/P2500?

Information is very sparse for this machine. The cartridge isn't compatible with early machines and seems to have some kind of multiplexed bus.

Nearly 40% of young men don't see sexual assault as domestic violence. This shocking statistic from a national survey highlights a dangerous gap in understanding abuse.

As an entrepreneur, I can empathize about the struggles of a company trying to stay viable. Without external forces and good communication they'll never change.

I spent years in and near Portland. Not perfect, but better than my time spent in the south.

The GOP will be so overwhelmed with so many trans people to be secretly attracted to.

I've never seen Cabaret, but from the moment I woke up, my brain DEMANDED that I listen to the original cast recording.

I don't even like musicals; I've lamented that I don't have the gene, but holy shit this is so wonderful and I think maybe I got a mutation somehow and I get musicals?

It was so bad. I remember when they started restricting it and the farmers lost their minds. The rest of us cheered.

I remember going down there in mid 80's and making a comment to my dad about the air smelled like burning plastics.

I lived in the country which had fairly clean air, except when they allowed field burning and we had 2-3 weeks coughing.

I'm old enough to remember cars spewing blue smoke and factory stacks covering neighbors in soot fallout.

As a kid, descending down the grapevine into the thick chemical smog would make my eyes immediately burn.

But hey, it's all a liberal hoax!!!
