starting the process of setting up a legit 501-3(c) I have a meeting with a lawyer on monday, so some of the goonbucks might need to go towards that, it's been a long time coming

A good use of goonbucks to keep everything going. Thank you for taking the time required to do all this.

In for $50 (69.42 CAD) as long as I stick to my 2021 diet.

If I cheat, even once, that month's donation goes to Trumps Make America Great Again Committee. Check is in an envelope, stamped, ready to mail.

Goon eat a food and have a beer so I don't have to drat it.

I have a family member who's in some dire straits. Unemployment ran out, state's behind, the whole nine yards of.

Is it appropriate to make a post or email on their behalf?

I was thinking I might hook them up with an account, but they have a lot on their plate getting ui straightened, etc. There's a family pet involved too, if that's relevant. Don't want them to stare either.

No, I just had a lot going on this weekend into early this week, sorry I'm not always able to fit a timeline so the sooner that you know that you're gunna need money or have an issue the better, this isn't a job for me, it's in my free time, and I don't get paid for it.

I’d run that past the guys in the computer forum, I’ve personally never heard of that brand and that might be an issue keeping it working in the future. For not much more you can get an equivalent spec’d Brother, but for all I know (someone who doesn’t exactly keep up with printer news) these might be the hottest guys in town now and a great buy.

ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTY NINE DOLLARS?!?!

nice

seriously though if you want a good cheap all in one go with Brother: https://smile.amazon.com/Brother-MFCL2750DW-Monochrome-Wireless-Replenishment/dp/B0763X6TCW

Little more expensive but Brother is good quality with fairly cheap toner cartridges.

I've never even heard of Pantum.

I remember buying a Brother printer over thirty years ago. Inexpensive but very solid.
