then it's moral hazard.

this proccess should
take and I don't want
to bug him if he hasn't even started.

the guy posting from

tell
the recipient
that you're gonna send him a board...

that, and where?

trusted member
to confirm
they actually have some chips working

they are keeping you in
the dark.
thank you.
mircea_popescu: TheSeven so basically you're involved in
the sense
that
they want
to abuse your name.
TheSeven: "communication issues" is about
the most detailed answer I was able
to squeeze out of
them

they just fail
to give me any relevant information on what kind of
trouble
they even have on
the
technical side

to do if
they would let me)
jcpham: i'm a part-time internet stalker and your rockbox and other involvement makes me
trust you a bit
TheSeven: it's not like
they'd let me fix
their problems
though :P

the use of only
the occam razor, please specify which path will be chosen.
mircea_popescu: or he could just continue being stupid on
the internet.
pankkake: hmm… he could state his flight, miss it, arrange
the plane
to explode

this
trip
