justJanne: yes, they can transport a package for 20
$ across the continent over night, and make a profit.
mats: lets use the US Postal Service as a model. something like 200 junk mailers are responsible for pumping
$billions into the thing, and they pay a pretty penny to be able to shit in your box at commercial rates (in US, cost of letter is
$0.49 -- junk mailers pay 5x that)
jurov: cazalla: the
$1000 figure stays even more so if you're to stay home
jurov: cazalla: so you'll pay

$270 !
gribble: Error: "
$(sleep" is not a valid command.
ben_vulpes: ;;
$(sleep 3600 && echo "!up pete_dushenski")
Apocalyptic: asciilifeform, it so happens that
$shmuck-Q is actually not a prime as well
Apocalyptic: asciilifeform, isn't Π(∀n) the product of all the modulus treated by phuctor ? how do you get
$schmuck-Q *
$otherschmuck-Q by dividing it by (schmuck-P ^ 2) ?

$4k to buy in the pre-order period so that brands will buy it before someone creates yourservice.sucks

decimation: asciilifeform: his remedy: "For starters, (1) Get absolute rid of all tax advantages for setting up ‘Family Foundations’ and ‘Blind Charitable Trusts’ and all that BS. GET COMPLETE RID OF ALL SUCH STRUCTURES. (2) Giant wealth-tax – like 95% flat garnishment – on all net-worth above, say,
