The CD/DVD burner I'll use regularly for burning older software etc to run on a Win XP system etc..and or music CDs for myself and others (I just got a request last week from my hunting buddy (the one who gives me lots of hot sausage) to burn some "country" CDs for him so he can listen to them in his truck while driving up to Oklahoma to get me some more deer sausage.
The burner I currently use is a bit flaky on my main PC for some reason.
does win XP still have any usable internet browsers to connect to the internet ? -

I've certainly lowered my dealings yes. Now Ebay report anything over $1000 to the IRS now so I kind of slowed down...getting hit by ebay fees and income tax at the end of the year doesn't make it worth my while...I still go but most stuff I wont bother with anymore. Just the big $$ items or stuff I know I can sell locally on offerup. -

2023-06-28 at 1:14 PM UTCNot so much a thrift store find, rather an ebay extravaganza.
Codename Iceman by Sierra, SEALED and perfect condition. (for PCjr, Tandy and MSDOS)
Looks like sealed copies go for $100-$150 or so.
My cost? $0.
Seller sent me the wrong item (this) and said "keep it, I'll send the correct item out today".

2024-08-15 at 2:39 PM UTCMy recent thrift store find made me think of Jiggabo’s lil thread.
Last Sunday’s attempt at my 1st Charcuterie board.
*A bit chaotic but I’ll get there… 🤗
but couldn’t keep the artichoke cheese dip I made hot/warm so, I looked in the thrift store & found this lil warmer for a few bucks $3.99. 👍
Now, I can’t Wait to make another one! 😁 -
2024-08-15 at 2:46 PM UTCThifting finds have been thin on the ground here lately, the last thing I got was about 3 weeks ago...a stainless steel sauce pan after the handle fell off my old one.
Price was $7.
I've mostly quit the "flipping stuff on Ebay" thing after they've changed the tax rules about you only being able to make $600 in a year off Ebay sales before they send you a 1099 at the end of the year...another bullshit tax burden. -
2024-08-15 at 2:55 PM UTCI also found a really good quality bunt pan I got for baking. I am pretty stoked cuz… This week, either muffins, home baked bread, or a bunt cake is on the agenda ☺️

Really nice! Usually in club med countries it's just a bunch of olives (cos those are what is cheap), a bunch of bread, and a bunch of feta cheese, and that is about it. Nothing else.
