Broken ThinkpadT430/T420 (Killarney)
Hey everyone, I'm a Grade 10 student in Vancouver learning low-level firmware engineering and kernel compilation. I am looking for an old, dusty, or broken Lenovo ThinkPad laptop shell to use as an embedded hardware testing sandbox. I am specifically looking for a ThinkPad T430 or a T420 (or any broken donor parts machine from that 2011-2013 generation, like a T520, W520, or X220). To respect your data privacy and keep this process zero-liability for you, I do NOT want any internal hard drives or storage media. I also don't need a battery, operating system, or power charger. I am literally just looking for the bare plastic/silicon skeleton that you might have sitting in your garage or designated for the electronic scrap bin. SHIPPING / ARRANGEMENT: Because I'm a student on a $0 budget without a vehicle, I can't do a local driving pickup. However, I will happily provide you with a Prepaid, Pre-Addressed Canada Post Shipping Label via email so it costs you nothing to send. For information please send me a message!

Board Games (Vancouver)
Hello, I am a young adult living with disabilities, attained in his late teens - early twenties, thus did not get a real chance to develop any of my executive functioning skills I was recently assigned a community support worker, who will be helping me with many things, amongst one of them, try to fine tune my executive functioning skills, A LITTLE LATE, We were searching online, what I could do to improve my executive functioning skills and found that playing board games (chess, settlers of catan were the two specific games mentioned on a University of Illinois page about developing executive functioning skills in adults page). I, even tried to quickly draw a chess board, and sixteen pieces to play a couple of rounds of chess with my community support worker, but had trouble in the middle, getting confused who’s paper drawn piece was who’s :( If anyone has a chess set, or any other board games that they no longer play on, I would graciously travel to the end of the earth (or a transit bus/sky train station near by your location :) ) to receive your gift Thank you very much for reading my post, And I hope that you ALL have (or had, since I am posting this at 5pm :S) a GREAT DAY :D John
