mircea_popescu: meanwhile in other chicks can code moments, "I earned my degree and license in cosmetology and had a horrible career as a hair dresser
that I ended in 2015 due
to social anxiety. I still love hair
theory, and I even really enjoy working on people with whom I share a close relationship, but now I'm in pursuit of a new path."
mod6: im having a grand ole
time
mod6: (this one has aggressive push blocks
too)

TRB do not mix.

mircea_popescu: but i can't go
that way after having specifically organized a painstaking and complex process
to rule out
teh comcasts.
trinque: and so, instincts
tuned
to
those cockroaches
trinque: at question wasn't
the amount of money, but
that
two different answers came out of a vendor. I have dealt with many, many a credit card processor.
mircea_popescu: (for noobs : most fiatola businesses keep an excel spreadshit detailing
the per account roi.)
trinque: I can give
the benefit of
the doubt
that DC will see it
that way, sane foot
to start upon.
mircea_popescu: trinque i expect you know exactly how it goes, a couple hundy extra puts you way at
the
top of ~the excel spreadsheet~. which is worth it from a service pov. i
think you follow
the strategix involved.
mircea_popescu: oh and btw -- if your expensive imported german car isn't rolling on
tubed
tyres, do
try
them on. it... it makes a fucking difference.
mircea_popescu: i
think with some minimal
tweaks
that shop could go on
the f1
trackside.
mircea_popescu: they
talked so fucking fast I HAD
TO
TELL
THEM
TO SLOW DOWN FOR ME! I!!!
mircea_popescu: was regaled with
the most incredible display of local competency ; indeed global competency ever encountered.
three kids switched out and back in five
tyres in like 12 minutes.
mircea_popescu bought
tyres + inner
tubes at place which had shorter "guarantia" and charged slightly more
than place which did not offer
the inner
tubes. "why not just buy
tubes and
take
them
to other place ?
they said
they'd do it" "stfu"
mircea_popescu: what i don't want is
to leak 10x
the sum
to unrelated
third party scammer-whores, ie whores
that don't even strip.
mircea_popescu: i don't because i want
them
to have a vested interest in sucking my cock.
mircea_popescu: trust in
the non-idiocy of
the lordship, you will rarely be disappointed.
mircea_popescu: trinque i deliberately didn't want
to hussle on
the price ; i don't want
THOSE $200. but it was understood.
trinque: if not what,
trinque's playing some game?
trinque: well for starters, when I get a quote out of folks for something
that's 200 cheaper
than another quote, oughta be understood
that I'm helping
the damned negotiation.
that was annoying.
mircea_popescu: ^ guy somehow managed
to get a boxful of pogos
through customz.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform are you basically willing
to sit on newegg/amazon/whatever and package boxes
to mail over ?
mircea_popescu: check out new meaning of PUBLIC company coined in
tmsr forum!
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform possibly because other parties assemble
teh boxes.
trinque is
trying
to not let
the ad hoc process here rustle his jimmies
mod6: Just was
thinking I'd be/foundation would probably be happy
to purchase 4 from whatever gets shipped down
to bb.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform
that he eventually wants
to have
the infrastructure down
there for his own boxen
mircea_popescu: mod6 imo it's counterproductive
to do it
that way ; but each his own
mod6: i'd be fine with
the ones
that are alreday down
there
though.
mod6: lol, i didn't mean mine no. but i guess i could do
that.
trinque: BingoBoingo: pls
to send shipping address my way as well
mircea_popescu: mod6 i
think ima just get s.nsa
to make bbisp an offer buy some
to have on hand.
mod6: I wanna send like 4 down
there.
mod6: Can I get in on
that fg order?
mircea_popescu: $900 writeoff for "expert"
that didn;t as much as write on her
tits, now $3k write-off for "month of pulling dick atop empty rack",
the joys of business over here.
trinque is on
the same page, wants
the list
mircea_popescu: trinque i have been pushing him
to produce me a list of machiens
that can be bought for what,
three weeks now ? six ?
trinque: guy's
talking about vacations. shipping has been plan B if
there's no machines
to acquire on
the spot
trinque: I'm definitely not flying a box
to bbisp
trinque: idea of
this is nonsense. why don't I contract with latechco directly for a 1U if I have
to do
that
BingoBoingo: Someone here has
to need a vacation, mircea_popescu might be
the only other person in
the republic with better weather scheduled for
the next
two months.
mircea_popescu: and in case it's not obvious:
there's a MAJOR opportunity here for someone wanting
to deliver a service for pay. why is nobody advertising "i will produce boxes and ship
them
to bb" ? have "the boundless blablas" buffett assigned
to america died QUITE
that dead ?
BingoBoingo: I haven't recieved it. I'm going
to poke
them again now.
mircea_popescu: that's
the
top priority, else we'll be paying for an empty rack while
the endless doodling goes about with getting servers delivered.
BingoBoingo: Anyways musl servering is going well, building a
trb on
the box because gotta
test for republican standards compliance.
BingoBoingo: Nah I mean with
the butterflies
there I refrained from gassing
the stinkbugs.
They crawled from
the milkweed
to
the
tomato cages
to
transform.
mircea_popescu: you mean
the butterflies ? iirc
these only eat milkweed
BingoBoingo: All I know is
they like
to park
their asses on bare galvanized with for
their personal
transformations. For
two weeks
the
tomatoes suffered mucho de stinkbugs.
mod6: <+mircea_popescu> gold sparks and everything ? << ya, mine
too.
mircea_popescu: pin
them on naked sluts piece montee in
the middle of
table.
mircea_popescu: anyway,
this is suggesting new peaks of luxury.
they spend ~half hour waiting for
their wings
to dry / batting
them slowly. if you get a few dozen coordinated chrysalises you could have quite
the grandiose dinner
table.
mircea_popescu: i still have nfi how
they do
those. is it what, copper ?
mircea_popescu: i suspect
this is slightyl different, iirc northerner monarch chrisalis looks more like a
turd
mod6: <+asciilifeform> mircea_popescu: asciilifeform actually had 1 of
these as homework in american school, 3rdgrade << yah, same.
BingoBoingo: asciilifeform:
This summer
there were a few in my garden
mod6: ok DC said
they'll
throw in an SSD for me. so
that's awesome. hopefully
that'll get my node caught up and stay caught up.
