  1. Hype for the Future 219/284: Town of Remington, Indiana

    Overview The Town of Remington is a notable smaller community within Carpenter Township, Jasper County, Indiana, at the junction of Routes 24 and 231 and near the Interstate 65 corridor to the east. The community is notable within the immediate area for Bob and Connie’s Restaurant and Pub.

  2. Any #typewriter buffs around here? My daughter inherited an old #Remington Monarch (not sure of what vintage, 1950s or later probably). Where do one get hold of replacement ribbons for these? I see references to Gr1 and Gr51, but can't really tell which is which, or if there are others.

  3. As someone who has had a beard more or less nonstop since the Carter administration, I find this troubling.

  4. If you can, please pitch in to help The Computer Museum in the small town of Camburzano, Italy.

    They've got hold of a haul of ancient big iron in surprisingly good shape and they need funds to safeguard this rare machinery:

    We are about to save an enormous quantity of extremely rare machines, some of which may be unique, dating back as far as 70 years.
    Among the equipment to be saved are machines from both #IBM and #Remington #Rand for the creation and management of punch cards (one of the earliest methods of loading programs), huge #Sperry #Univac #mainframes complete with their tape units, disks, and printers, as well as the earliest #Olivetti systems. All the machines are in astonishingly good condition and perhaps, with good care, even functional.

    The brewing gun-control fight that could be headed to the Supreme Court

    #Buffalo is suing several gun manufacturers, including #Beretta, #Smith & Wesson, #Glock, #Remington and #Bushmaster, arguing they have fueled gun violence in the city, endangered the safety and health of the public and “must be held accountable.”

  6. As a warmup for #TypewriterTuesday, here's my latest love, a quirky Remington No. 7 standard typewriter from the end of the 19th c., in need of much TLC. Quirky because the type bars hit the paper on the *underside* of the platen...meaning you can't see what you type (and we think texting with our thumbs is hard!).

  7. Het is rommel, het spul van #Remington. De baardtimmer laat niet zien wanneer die volledig is opgeladen, en als m’n haartrimmer onder de 50 resterende minuten duikt… is het in vijf minuten gebeurd.

    Eens kijken of ik ergens een klantenservice vind…

  8. Remember, after every mass shooting, the executives and employees at #SigSauer, #GLOCK, #Beretta, #Bushmaster, #Remington, #winchester, and the rest of the #GunInduatry are laughing all the way to the bank.

    It’s not about sport, it’s not about protection, it’s not about the #2ndAmendment, it’s about profit, wealth, and blood money.

    The perpetual #GunSlaughter is a uniquely American plague, it’s a policy choice. We allow this to happen.

  9. hey #Remington how fucking bad are you at business that you're a gun company that somehow managed to fail IN THE UNITED STATES?

  10. @garius I miss bashing out stuff on a #remington

    The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog.

  11. Remington Arms is summiting random cartoons and videos as part of the "discovery" process in a court case, as a stall tactic, they are being sued by Family's of the Sandy Hook Shootings. Over 18,000 files that depicted cartoons and Emoji were submitted

  12. You have no idea how much enjoyment this #remington #typewriter is giving me :) The noise of it clacking away, followed by the end of line bell, and then the ratchet as you move to the new line is like #ASMR to me.
    New ribbon and special spools arrived from the US today!
