GAP Locations

In 1977 I bought an Apple II computer and used it to make a living writing freelance software with it and it served me well in this regard.  By the time I sold it I had 4 apple II drives on it and 2 Sugart 8” drives with an 80 column board, a Z-80 card to develop CP/M software, some kind of fancy sound car that escapes me now, an NEC Multisync color monitor, maxed out RAM and a language card. I sold it the day the IBM PC came out as I already had about 5 clients lined up to do work on the thing and Apple 2 clients were becoming tougher to find.  It was to be my platform of choice off and on for the next 26 years with UNIX or UNIX type OSes filling in the gaps.  I love UNIX but a machin...

I woke up in a jolt, ripped from the cusp of sleep. The realization that I was beginning to slip into a dream was what tore me from rest. I tossed and turned in my bed for what felt like hours. I rolled over, turning my alarm clock to face me. 12:47am. "****" As predicted, I'd been wrestling with sleep for almost three hours now. When I’d finally gotten the first real chance at sleep, a glimpse of hope would burst through me in a wave of unholy adrenaline dragging me back to square-one. For an insomniac, the idea of a sleep schedule was about as foreign as what lay at the bottom of our oceans. I licked and ****** around my gums, which had been coated in a thin layer of s...

hey guys. i’m 16 and i’ve been teaching myself python for a while. mostly doing CS50 and exercises and small scripts. honestly, i didn't think i was ready for the real world yet. but recently, a local clothing brand here gave me a shot. they were struggling with their product photos with expensive photographers, bad lighting. instead of just editing their photos, i decided to build a whole system for them. i coded a script where they just drop flat images into folders, and the script generates the models, fits the clothes perfectly, and upscales everything to 4k for their store. the moment that hit me: when i showed the owner the results, he didn't believe a computer gener...

I’ve been extremely excited to go out for this tomorrow to celebrate for my birthday a little bit early. I’ve been scouring social media like crazy today to see how it went and everything I’m reading is terrible. Did ANYBODY have a good time? Was it pure chaos for getting everything, or just the manga Goku? I really want that figure but I’ve already told myself if it seems futile I’m not going to care. But I would like to leave with at least something to remember the day/event. Did they have other merch? Clothing? Plush figures? I saw a clip from the Tokyo DB store of plush Puar toys and would like to get one for my wife since she loves Puar. Any good stuff for Piccolo, Trun...

Hey everyone. I’ve been learning to code for a while now started with some online courses and yt, and I always wanted to build something that actually solved a real problem, not just homework exercises. I noticed that a lot of local clothing brands here have amazing designs, but their product photos don't do them justice because they can't afford professional models or studios yet. So, I spent the last few weeks pouring everything I learned into building a custom Python workflow to fix this. What I built: It’s basically an automated studio. The brand just gives me a folder with their flat clothing images, and my script: 1. Matches the clothes to specific AI models (that a...

So quick background, I am dating my cis girlfriend who I have known for 10+ years and she works in a clothing store, and we share the same group of friends, mostly other cis women and 1 trans man, and we are all close especially my girlfriend and the cis women. It is also important to mention that I have only transitioned socially via name and privately with pronouns and stuff, other then those things I dress in all black baggy clothes. Now I have felt like this is the past but it happened again today and I just wanted to know if I am being jealous or just disphoric. I met up with one of my cis women friends for her birthday and we decided to visit my girlfriend at work. We got there and st...

Like she's bang-average height and face, but she puts in the effort to exercise and she looks pretty slim. The race is your choice. Works as an accountant. She will physically abuse you if you look at other women(except your family) and start crying. When she gets horny, she doesn't take no for an answer. She gets horny pretty often. You can live in her big comfy house, but she will force you to quit your job(if you had one) and be a stay-at-home. So you're going to have a big fuckin employment gap. She has a tracker on your clothes and phone. If you forget to reply to her texts, she will punish you if she sees you. Oh and if you break up, make her break up with you, o...

So grateful for my new dry erase board to help with active recall for my nursing prerequisite study sessions! Thanks Rhianna 🥰

I've spent way too much time analyzing this. Not because I'm some romance guru, but because I kept missing signals and later found out people were into me. Classic case of being oblivious until it's too late. So I went deep into the research. Psychology papers, body language studies, podcasts with relationship experts, dating coach insights. Turns out there's actual science behind attraction signals, and most people miss them because we're looking for the wrong things. Here's what I learned from credible sources that actually study human behavior, not TikTok advice. \*\*1. They remember weirdly specific details about you\*\* Someone who likes you wil...

Lately I’ve been pulling my hair out over Meta conversion tracking. A bunch of purchases are either missing entirely or showing up way later than they should. I’m running the standard Shopify pixel and after the iOS privacy changes it feels like the numbers just stopped matching what the store is actually doing. I’ve rechecked pixel firing, messed with GTM, and done the usual “is this double-firing or not firing” audits, but the gap is still there.Everyone recommends the browser + server hybrid approach, but the setup feels needlessly messy, especially if you’re juggling more than one ad account. I even did side-by-side comparisons to see if CAPI events were syncing properly, and...

So I have the capital and passion to start a thrift store but I lack the product, I belong to a tier-2 city ( Bhubaneswar)and there are very few to none second hand wholesalers around me, I have an interest in fashion and clothing and I want to create a community via my thrift store towards sustainability and affordability. In today's time many of the clothes which are produced in the markets are very identical to each other and anyone who is like me trying unique designs and not able to find that type of style I want to create a store for them where I can provide them . I very much like the idea of thrifting because it gives you so unique and rare pieces which are very different from ...

I live in an apartment complex with shared laundry and it's been driving me insane. There's one washer and dryer for like 10 units and someone is always using it. I'd have to plan my entire weekend around doing laundry which felt ridiculous. I finally gave up and bought a mini washing machine that hooks up to my kitchen sink. I was skeptical it would actually work well but honestly it's been so much better than I expected. It's small so I can only do like one outfit at a time basically, but for everyday stuff like underwear, shirts, and workout clothes it's perfect. I still use the shared machines for bigger items like sheets and towels but now I'm not fi...

I’m very new to bookbinding, and I’m working on the basics rn, but all the books I’ve made are super stiff (hard to open/keep open). I’ve done some with book cloth and some with paper (although my paper might be too thick), but I’m having the same issue with both types. What could I be doing wrong? Too much glue? Hinge gaps too small? Any thoughts? Thanks in advance!

I’m in search of any good thrift stores in town, doesn’t matter what side (or Henderson). The goodwill clearance center bins down in the airport area is good (pay by pound) and I really like that, you can get alot for cheap there. Now I’ve tried deseret industries and obviously goodwill, savers, salvation.. They are ok, but still steep. Where else would y’all recommend ? Is there any other clothing sales that are pay by pound and you just pick through what you want? I mainly go for clothes, and household stuff. I’m open to any liquidation stores, clearance stores etc! TIA!

“Hello…?”  Rachael sat alone in the center of the dark upstairs bedroom. The faint sound of a late night driver accelerating from the stop sign down the street was her only companion. She laid down her EVP-Pro in front of her, the red light that indicated the device is recording made the only illumination. “If there is anyone here, all I want to do is communicate.”  Raising her digital video recorder she opened the small two and a half inch LED screen. The intrusion of the green night vision light caused her eyes to re-adjust, reminding her how tired she really was. Pointing the camera over her left shoulder at the open doorway she captured the hallway leading to the master b...

The warehouse was silent, save for the low hum of the monitors and the occasional deep creak in the walls, like the building itself was exhaling. I took another sip from my fifth cup of black coffee that evening, feeling the bitterness coat my tongue. My eyelids were heavy, and I was just about to sink deeper into the swivel chair for a quick nap when my phone suddenly buzzed on the table, the sharp sound cutting through the quiet and jolting me upright. It was a message from my brother, Jamie. _Hey, you still up?_ I yawned and rubbed my eyes, the screen’s glare making them sting. My fingers hovered over the keyboard for a second before I typed back a quick reply: _Got the nigh...

My name is Jack Marshall. I’m 46 years old, and I have been an over-the-road driver for nearly a decade. I was used to driving through thick and thin and had experienced plenty of the good, the bad, and the ugly out on the road, but nothing could have prepared me for what I was about to encounter. I'd had a long day and was feeling exhausted, so when I spotted the large blue sign that read "Rest Area," I pulled onto the exit ramp. My bladder was killing me, and my legs were aching for a good stretch. I quickly found a spot right in front of the small building; there wasn't a single car in sight. The rest area was totally deserted. I put my truck in park and cut the en...
