Remember when you could just go to a Radio Shack and buy parts to fix stuff or build your own death ray, instead of having to climb over piles of R/C cars and cell phone crap only to find the guy who insists on helping you doesn't even know what a resistor is...
Granted you can buy it all and more on the Internet... It's just that having a brick and mortar store like that said we still cared about fixing and building stuff, not being served up shiny disposable newness on a garish conveyor belt of pretentious demand...
Yeah, I remember Radio Shack. Meh, an OK place for garden variety pieces, but I remember back when I was in college (I lived up the road from Fred & Wilma Flintstone) and there was a local electronics shop that had a whole warehouse of teeny-tiny parts in a back room behind the counter. You just went in and talked to the guy behind the counter and he went back and found what you needed. He was always busy. Fast forward 50 years and I was back in my college town a couple years ago and that same guy is still in the same store and he's still there and still gets the parts you tell him but he's not busy at all anymore. The racks of pre-packaged parts in the front of the store (a la Radio Shack) are the same parts he had 50 years ago in the same but now yellowed and disintegrating plastic bags. Back in the old days he had some high quality HiFi gear on shelves in his (then) modern fancy listening room, i.e. Marantz, Fischer, AR, etc. Speakers, tape recorders, amps, receivers, etc. but he didn't sell much of that, his bread and butter was teeny-tiny parts sold at the counter plus TV & CB & ham radio antennas & equipment. When I checked out his store recently I noticed that his listening room still had the same equipment still sitting on the shelves in a disheveled disorganized room and a little dustier but still sounding good! When he passes on, someone's going to inherit or buy in auction a gold mine in antique stereo equipment!
One thing that was nice and still is, is that if you needed a cable repaired or were building a special cable, you'd buy the end plugs or pins & shells and the cable and if it was a crimp connection he had all the special crimp tools and would put the plugs or pins on for you no charge. Find a Radio Shack that will do that!

spline might be perfect for making lightning strikes, if can find how to add thickness. keyframe on/off ticks
...off my pizza menu these days as the combination of the greasiness and spiciness is always a sure ticket to bad indigestion. I can have (good quality) pepperoni on a sanny, as long as it is not heated.
Oops.

Yes, this "better" forum makes it more work. And forget one little step (like I did) and you get more work to fix it. Or just leave it, like I'm doing.

There was a shop like that in Fall River, MA, too, back then. I could get things there that they didn't have at Radio Shack.
Dana
Look for RSRconverter. it's a freebie somewhere. It takes the RSR files and makes PNG files from them.
Dana
Did you see my earlier reply? That coupler is only $1.37 and free shipping!
Dana
...yep. and they were once an affordable place to shop for electronic components as well. wnt to one the other week figuring I could get something there to deal with my cable issue at a reasonable price but all they had were the "standard" male/male Ethernet cables or female/female couplers, the latter which were priced at 10$.
As I mentioned earlier, going to go down to the local geek co-op tomorrow, I can probably get a 4 port switch there for less than that (if they have one).
...there used to be a place like that here in Portland called Wacky WIlly's, but it closed down back in '06. Lot's of components and gizmos of all types there.
...hmm 3 pages to go...
iz really 1:19am?
thinkin on something like a floating aircraft carrier, but for dragons and vertical lift vehicles.

It is raining and this bus stop has no shelter complaint
@ kyoto kid : Re "mayo" based dips.
The days when name brand means better quality are long gone. The next time you are in a grocery store look at the ingredient list on the lowets priced dips. You might be surprised.
I think Richard H and a few others might remember my post here several years ago when I discovered the following:
Highest priced (Kraft) was vegetable oil.
Mid priced (Plains) was vagetable oil and sour cream.
Lowest priced (Shur Fine) was sour cream.
You may find the same to be true where you are.
I feel like quitting my job as I am so frustrated. I work so hard but get so little in return.
Back in the 80s there were great little places like that all over the "Canal street area" in lower Manhattan... There was one that was a mad scientist's buffet... They had brand new stuff, really old stuff from liquidated stock, salvaged stock and manufactures surplus... One of my favorite things were these "half built" things that would show up... Clocks, stereos, meters, transmitters, radios... Boxes of all manner of devices that seemed as though the production order was canceled in the middle of assembly... Those were the best because they were really cheap and in many cases, could be modified into something else. But there were all sorts of "surplus" and "liquidator" type stores there... The best were camera, plastics, military and tools... You could build practically anything if you knew where to go... It was like Mos Eisley within walking distance of Chinatown. Those places are all long gone now, they disappeared in the late 90s -early 00s. Even the last vestige of those days, Pearl Paints finally closed a year or two ago... It was five (or six?) floors of artist's paradise... If it existed, you could find it there... The top floor was for sculpting and industrial model making supplies as well as mold making and casting supplies and materials... If it were not for that place I would never have learned how to make silicon molds, or use RTV casting material... And probably never would have become an industrial model maker. I really bummed me out to hear they closed. As a kid, me and my friends would trek the ten or so miles over to canal street to get supplies to make whatever it was we created... Art, machinery, computers... Crazy inventions or silly junk... But just going into these places fueled your imagination... "What the hell is that?... I could so make something out of this!... Dude... An instrument cluster and joystick from an A4... We could make the coolest video game controller out of this!! "... Granted nowadays, you can track all that down on the Internet, you can buy anything you need to make whatever you want to build or create... But having it physically in front of you, to see it, smell it, touch it... Stupid thumbnails and click to zoom images don't even come remotely close to that experience... You could be a young Tony Stark, Doc Brown or Leonardo (not the turtle) with only your imagination to limit you. I guess what really bothers me the most is not the loss of those stores, but what inevitably comes in there place... Just another sneaker store, overpriced jeans and sweatshirt shop or cell phone joint... I could walk into one of those in Seattle, Miami or Boston... Probably even London or Munich and it would be the same stuff, same store, same old crap... It's sad really.
God, I'm depressing... Oh well, enough of that.
can totally commiserate
