Explaining to a company I work with that traditionally, we like to schedule downtime for services in the future, not retroactively. Call me an old stick-in-the-mud.

Can you make good use of an original Commodore PET computer? This one is yours for free if you can pick it up in Los Angeles (near USC). My parents bought it in 1978. It has the famous chiclet keyboard and integral cassette tape drive. It doesn't work at this point, which someone told me is probably due to some bad RAM chips but I don't actually know. The screen shows random squares when it's on.

Boosts for reach appreciated.

ETA: email me at [email protected] or DM me here.

Trying to research local Tai Chi classes and so far I've found one that would rather teach Alexander Technique instead, one that would prefer we all did Kung Fu, two that would rather go for QiGong and one who's actually more into Hermetic Meditation.

As far as I can tell, no-one local actually teaches Tai Chi as their main thing.

I get that it's a continuum of practices and techniques with all kinds of convoluted history and lineage and all that but sheesh.

I do not use AI at all, at any stage of writing my books. I have the &udm=14 code in my search engine so I don't even use it for research.
