asciilifeform: ( i'm not even opposed, there's a rubbish bin right at the post office )
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: tell'em all waste is to be mailed to gringolandia
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: prev 3 datapoints suggested 'can mail with 30% bakshish' ; but apparently yes, will have to return to orig hypothesis.
asciilifeform: there is no substitute for experiment.
asciilifeform: anyway i have no opposition to an experimental test
asciilifeform: i'd normally expect would be dismissed with prejudice, under 'article 12345: we do whatever the fuck we want and suck it' but this is possibly biased by life in usa
asciilifeform: what's it even cost to file, in orcistan, cost of a whiskey?
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: sounds like winning idea, imho.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: unless i'm thick, this needs a specialist who's actually trustworthy, neh
asciilifeform: this was my impression as of this morning. and was also my impression that BingoBoingo went and danced the asked-for dance with the orcs, and thereafter eggog is to vanish. but turns out -- not.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: i'm satisfied that BingoBoingo sniffed erry possible local arse for local source.
asciilifeform: the old newspapers is worth a shot. and if this fails, it'll have to run like antarctic station, i.e. supply rocket quarterly-semiquarterly, and priced in.
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: can you think of less braindamaged ? ( say i had budgeted 9000 spares for april expedition. then we'd be sitting on 8994 lemon drives. )
asciilifeform: full text : 'Estimado: Me informa el despachante que se encuentra inhabilitado para importar por DINAMA. Agradezco una vez regularice la situación nos informe para procesar el permiso. Saludos cordiales.'

asciilifeform: rk plant currently has 0 spare parts !!
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: plox to check that emailbox asap

asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: hey, usg 3ringbinder talmud prolly decreed that they must try at least 11 times..
asciilifeform: imho there is substance to mircea_popescu's 'winblowz was created by supernumerary children who failed to find grave in time' hypothesis

asciilifeform: 'configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables' << wat
asciilifeform: makers of physical objects, i can reluctantly forgive for failing to produce shelfifier. but those of ideal objects -- for them there can be no forgiveness
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: reminds of ancient convo b/w asciilifeform and pet : 'p : 'i want a shelfifier' a: 'you mean, a shelf' p : 'no, shelfifier' a: '...' p: 'device that produces shelf where and when needed, then removes' '
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: 'catalogue of tcp braindamage' is prolly ripe for an article. ( sadly asciilifeform is mired in liquishit and prolly will not write it this wk )
