That would convert a luxury watch with an expensive need for servicing into some cold hard cash.

MinceR

the more useless something is, the more devil apes love it

*agentcasey has quit (Quit: leaving)

IsambardPrince

Use the cold hard cash for a Casio watch and put the rest into an investment.

MinceR

yeah

https://ipwatchdog.com/2026/07/29/outdated-protective-orders-are-impeding-software-code-analysis-in-copyright-and-trade-secret-cases/

IsambardPrince

This is why Dave Ramsey says you have stuff all over your house you can sell to help you get out of debt.

Jul 31 00:19

IsambardPrince

That one watch could probably fetch nearly $1,000.

IsambardPrince

MinceR: Next year I'll be porting my phone number to a Lifeline plan and eliminating the cell phone bill entirely.

Jul 31 00:32

IsambardPrince

If you get any amount of food stamps, you qualify for a free cell phone plan with data.

Jul 31 00:32

IsambardPrince

Mint Mobile is costing me $264 a year right now.

Jul 31 00:33

IsambardPrince

A lot of people are paying about that much every two months because they use a postpaid carrier with "ZOMGFREEPHONE!"

I finally caught something in one of my sticky traps.

Jul 31 01:36

Just a beetle of some sort. Not a roach.

The reason I stopped using Firefox is because when it overflowed 16 GB of RAM(!) the oom-killer decided to go after Konversation, an IRC client that was sitting there using 2.5 MB of RAM.

Jul 31 03:03

MinceR

Jul 31 03:04

IsambardPrince

Then I got a notification from KDE that the oom-killer crashed Konversation.

Jul 31 03:04

MinceR

i stopped using firecocks because they tried to push shit like poetteringaudio on me after dumbing their browser down to a chromium clone

Jul 31 03:04

MinceR

i resumed using firecocks because brave decided it would be a good idea to fuck up the save dialog so that enter does nothing and it doesn't ask you whether you want to overwrite anything, it just silently overwrites files

Jul 31 03:05

MinceR

"modern" web browsers are an abomination

Jul 31 03:54

IsambardPrince

The only sticky traps I found that had roaches were in that utility closet, especially under the water heater.

Jul 31 03:54

IsambardPrince

I laid sticky traps flat around the edges of the walls so any roaches that ran through from the neighbor's unit would run across one.

this iss not what you did:

schestowitz[TR2]

you make fun of the company

IsambardPrince

Like "We can get these people to pay you 46% more money by making them lose track of what they spend."

IsambardPrince

schestowitz[TR2]

it is like loan sharks

schestowitz[TR2]

don't mock desperate people

haha, book

IsambardPrince

It wasn't a bad book.

schestowitz[TR2]

piiyushgpt?

IsambardPrince

I wonder who actually wrote it.

schestowitz[TR2]

Piyush is propbably not stupid

schestowitz[TR2]

based on his past career

schestowitz[TR2]

but he hass no streetsmarts

schestowitz[TR2]

he thought

schestowitz[TR2]

hey

schestowitz[TR2]

there is this estate market

schestowitz[TR2]

that he never worked in

IsambardPrince

No, I believe that he was actually really good where he was.

schestowitz[TR2]

and he does IT something something

IsambardPrince

But he's not good at property management.

schestowitz[TR2]

he will "invent" something

schestowitz[TR2]

then he brought in people without vetting

schestowitz[TR2]

and found out how expensive evictions are

schestowitz[TR2]

he might be ok at IT

schestowitz[TR2]

but..

schestowitz[TR2]

day-to-day is another matter

IsambardPrince

He should have kept the 401(k) and the salary job.

schestowitz[TR2]

that's like me running a bakery

schestowitz[TR2]

and thinking

IsambardPrince

He'd be truly wealthy now.

schestowitz[TR2]

hey, let'e hire a good cook

schestowitz[TR2]

and sell this and that

IsambardPrince

An everyday millionaire.

schestowitz[TR2]

"cashless payments"

schestowitz[TR2]

"IT something"

schestowitz[TR2]

there is a lot more to it than that

IsambardPrince

Right, Roy might be good at one thing.

IsambardPrince

He might not be good at running a bakery.

schestowitz[TR2]

right

IsambardPrince

Totally different area.

schestowitz[TR2]

as a son of a cook you might know more

schestowitz[TR2]

or somewhat who grew up in one

schestowitz[TR2]

IsambardPrince

schestowitz[TR2]

it sold electronics

schestowitz[TR2]

he was second gen

schestowitz[TR2]

but not TOO permissive

schestowitz[TR2]

to assess if someone will pay

schestowitz[TR2]

same for other shops you distribute to

schestowitz[TR2]

one mistake and you can lost your pants

one stupid lawsuit

schestowitz[TR2]

there goes his pension and he is maxing up debt cards

schestowitz[TR2]

it's a dumb lawsuit

schestowitz[TR2]

in 2021 it began

schestowitz[TR2]

same time graveley was arrested

schestowitz[TR2]

instead of sending me email

schestowitz[TR2]

"hi roy, can you check this tweet"

schestowitz[TR2]

nno

schestowitz[TR2]

he went to a lawyer first

schestowitz[TR2]

schestowitz[TR2]

did not even ask me first

schestowitz[TR2]

which would be simpler

schestowitz[TR2]

after that ytou cannot trust a person

schestowitz[TR2]

i bet he still regrets this

schestowitz[TR2]

maybe that escalation was more to do with his gnome friends

Rob assured and insisted to Tobias and I that the Foundation would make an effective fiscal sponsor for the 1M€ STF grant. We knew that under Rob’s (long) presidency and directorship it was dysfunctional but we chose to trust them rather than looking for another fiscal host or creating a new entity because we hoped it would bring the community together.

Shortly after joining as a director I realized the situation was even worse than I thought. I won’t go into detail here, I believe that new directors are aware and working hard on the issues. I took my mission as a director seriously, in particular the responsibility of care and of loyalty, including to the foundation members who elected me in hope for change."

CareCredit did a self-selecting survey and found that 91% would recommend CareCredit. The people that answer surveys are the people who paid it off during the deferred interest period. People who got sued and went to bankruptcy hearings are not answering surveys.

schestowitz[TR2]: Car dealerships send people Demand Letters sometimes.

IsambardPrince

There's a finance trick.

schestowitz[TR2]

that make a loud sound

IsambardPrince

if you finance a car, the dealer gets a bribe called a reserve.

IsambardPrince

If you immediately do a loan payoff within a certain number of days, you can pay off the car with no interest.

IsambardPrince

The dealer made you a better deal assuming a 5% reserve.

IsambardPrince

So when you payoff, they lose money on the car.

IsambardPrince

Many of them introduced language called the "reserve clawback".

IsambardPrince

Basically the finance company claws back the reserve from the dealer if you do that.

IsambardPrince

Then the dealer inserts a clause that says that you owe them that money if they lose the reserve.

IsambardPrince

So if you do that, you might have the dealer demanding you come down there and pay them $1,000 or something.

IsambardPrince

But you're under no obligation to.

schestowitz[TR2]: Usually what happens is the dealership just writes it off.

IsambardPrince

They might ban you from purchasing another car there in the future unless you pay cash.
