<mod6> Can I get your assurances that this won't come up again for a long time, at least a year or ever? We're just dumping cash. And we're not going to be in business long at all.
<< You have my assurance. This discussion was started in Februay had been tabled without activity since then. Hence reviving it when we have a path to get to where we need to be, but before we get another infusion of iron down here.
BingoBoingo:
<ben_vulpes> plus table, chairs, bed, cutlery, hot water heater?
<< Whiteboard
BingoBoingo:
<ben_vulpes> yeah, it's fuckin tricky, though. i'm trying to estimate what could reasonably be packed into uy1 from a shared shell and ftp perspective, but i think 20 shell accounts and 100 lower-end ftp-only accounts is probably the max that box can carry without overbooking it, and if we can get to that point within a year i'll be pleased as punch, as it'll cover a significant fraction of the whole pizarro operation's

<mod6> And the per-diem money, if we can get it to "reasonable bump" per month, is a done-deal in my opinion.

<ben_vulpes> BingoBoingo: am i crazy in trying to push for an apartment for you?
<< You aren't but the monthly expense of an apartment isn't so different from the hostel+cowork.
BingoBoingo:
<asciilifeform> BingoBoingo: elaborate re what's wrong with normal btc ( you can sell it now, or later, or convert to whatever suits you )
<< Normal BTC is fine for this, but for pizarro's sake I am denominating this in Dosiedoes
BingoBoingo: I am saying the "
<mod6> So that'd be ok with ya? 5000 now, 2500 september 1st?" is not objectionable. Breaking it down into even payments is objectionable.
BingoBoingo:
<mod6> What I want, is a commitment for no further renegotiations until at least this time of next year.
<< That is the goal. It's also why I started the push this month before any more machines are holding me hostage in the cabinet.
BingoBoingo:
<ben_vulpes> yeah in re the apartment, BingoBoingo you want to live in the dorms forever or why wasn't that in your ask
<< It's something I am flexible on.
