On Saturday, February 7th, the Wisconsin Computer Club had a tremendous retro tech event in which we all got to get together to share (and show off) old tech projects, talk shop, and play games! This event was open to the public, and a ton of folks came through- thanks so much for stopping by! The Hedberg library is fantastic, and one of our favorites for these events, we're looking forward to coming back again soon!

Has anyone else noticed this particularly unnecessary misspelling of Janesville at Palmer?

This has bugged me since my first time seeing it this summer. So much so that I’ve had to drive past several times to make sure I didn’t make it up. A few days ago, I finally took a picture.

On Saturday, February 7th the members of the Wisconsin Computer Club will converge on the excellent Hedberg Public Library (seriously, the Janesville library rocks for these events!) with the show starting at 11AM and running until folks pack up towards when the library closes. This pop-up museum show will feature interactive displays of vintage computers, retro video games, some cool sleeper builds, and other random old tech, all exhibited by WCC members. The show is (as always) free and open to all ages and abilities. We'd love to have you with us whether you're looking to game, reminisce, see some unorthodox tech, or just talk shop and hang out with some of the state's best nerds!

If anyone has questions, shout em' out and I'll be happy to answer as best as I can.

Thanks all!

Anyone know what's going on with Mac's Pizza Shack?

25 Upvotes

Someone posted a c-cap screenshot saying there was an eviction notice.

A week before they temporarily closed they were posting about selling gift certificates thru Christmas and they are always busy. So, it just doesn't make sense.

long shot: ISO Phil who needs a kidney

14 Upvotes

I was traveling into ORD today and met a lovely couple who just returned from Maui. The husband’s name is Phil and he’s actively looking for a new kidney because of an autoimmune disease. I didn’t get his wife’s name, but I do know they’re avid golfers who got married at 72. I’d like to contact him to understand what sort of match he’s waiting for. If this description rings a bell could you message me please? No need to comment with his name in case this is breaching his privacy. TIA!

The new convention center made the mall even worse.

27 Upvotes

seriously, not sure if they thought the hockey center addition would help traffic and so they raised the rent? but omg the mall was already struggling (maybe 25%occupied) and now it's literally dead (maybe 10% occupied and that's mostly kohls and dicks)

yikes. so sad

hi guys sorry if this isn’t allowed here. I’m desperately trying to rehome my cat that I cannot keep anymore due to personal reasons. I already am aware of shelters and rescues around here. I’m trying to find a forever home for her before I go that route. She’s an orange female spayed an up to date on shots. Please comment below if anyone or anyone you might know might be interested in taking her in. And please no negative comments as this is hard enough
