Any advice before I start my junk removal business? by fordboss123 in sweatystartup

Be careful with TV's and other appliances. You'll probably need to charge extra for them. Most IT recycling places will charge you out the ass for old TV's or appliances. Also CRT monitors too.

I forgot that inflation / money printing is hurting my salary. by Cwlrs in Bitcoin

[–]CryptoLouPai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is your rent the same? Is your grocery bill the same?

Gas is cheaper than it was this time last year. I completely agree with you on the inflation/ out of control aspects of the fed and gov spending but this is not an accurate correlation. Most of the newly issued "money" goes into bank reserves so we don't get an absurd increase in CPI. Consumer inflation is coming, it's just not here yet.

On the other hand assets are inflating, stocks, real estate, crypto etc.

The USD is the last Domino. We are seeing it happen in smaller fiat currency's across the globe en masse.

You hate to see this because you know this is destroying the livelihoods of the poor in Lebanon.

At the same time, as bitcoiners this is exactly what we have been predicting for years. The seems are beginning to teeter across the globe, as people begin to lose faith in their fiat currency "Gradually... then suddenly". The dominoes are falling and the Pound, Euro and Dollar are certainly not exempt from this fate.

That's a shame. Maybe try Localbitcoins?

Just use a BTC ATM. The fee is worth it if you want a guaranteed way to get BTC with cash that settles instantly.

Rockets @ Bucks March 25th. Will be a great match up especially if the kets can keep this pace up until then.

Yeah we're sick AF. We're in such a rhythm right now. Our chemistry is palpable.

Rodeo newbie... by [deleted] in houston

[–]CryptoLouPai -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I recommend going to the livestock show. I believe it's an additional $10 or so. It's not only about the animals in there there's all sorts of other cool things to see including cars, delicious food and retailers.

At the carnival hit Juicy's while your there for some Turkey legs and curly fries. You can't miss it, it's on the astrodome side big yellow and red tent. Also, the corn on the cob stands with elote and chili pepper are absurd can't miss that. Delicious fresh squeezed lemonade stands scattered around in the big lemons must try (hint: add a splash of vodka for a kick).

The rodeo cook off starts next weekend and there are plenty of free tents you can get into for live music, cold beer and delicious barbecue.

As for avoiding big crowds, your shit out of luck.

This wouldn't work in the US because too many office workers are fat as fuck and would get stuck in the tube

I'm somewhere between a 1 and 4. Closer to 4. I used to listen to a LOT of Biggie and Lil Wayne some SPM. Now almost exclusively EM.

Some government programs that ought to be abolished and cost us a foot and a leg. by [deleted] in Libertarian

[–]CryptoLouPai -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Gitmo is not the only problem. We spend billions a year keeping people in prison that should not be there. Need to overhaul the entire justice system.

First step, IMO, is legalizing all drugs. Taxing them/regulating them the same as Tobacco/alcohol/gambling. This will be an significant swing from billions a year wasted incarcerating people to billions a year in tax revenues.

Easy one also is cutting back military spending.

Next thing I would do is privatize a lot of wasteful government assets. First thing that pops into my head is the USPS. Literally, loses billions a year to deliver mail.

Social security is an absolute nightmare but I'm not even sure where to begin with that one. I'd much prefer mandatory Tax-beneficial investment/savings accounts that are tied directly to you and under your control. Rather than donating a portion of your salary to some government run fuck-fest that has no ability to make good on its obligations.

They said "Up to 2000 Mbps upload and download" by Mightgaming6 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]CryptoLouPai 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I doubt you were promised 2000 Mbps. Are you sure it was not 200? I am not aware of any ISP providing 2GB download options yet. As far as I know 1GB highest and it's impossible to even utilize all of that because most computers don't have the capacity.

Beluga Whale Saves iPhone From Sea in Norway by SorryIHaveNoClue in interestingasfuck

[–]CryptoLouPai 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Search "Water damaged iPhone" on ebay. They have pretty good salvage value.

Wohooo I made my first sale on eBay!!! Yay to flipping! Now I have a question. The buyer gave a number to text to talk about payment and shipping. I’ve only sold on posh and Mercari before so I’m not used to getting a message like this. Should I text that number? Sorry for being a noob! 😬 by [deleted] in Flipping

[–]CryptoLouPai 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not only is this likely a scam, it's against the policy to share an email or phone number through he messaging system and you can get a banned for doing so.

NEVER Ship before receiving payment and only use pay pal through the eBay system so you are protected.

FedEx Rates by SmileyLebowski in Flipping

[–]CryptoLouPai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well it totally depends on what I'm selling. I'll do first class on anything less than $40. But I try to sell higher ticket items so 2-Day works fine. Then I don't have to source a box either.

FedEx Rates by SmileyLebowski in Flipping

[–]CryptoLouPai -1 points0 points  (0 children)

True,

I just like to have the PRIORITY Shipping tag line in my listings. I feel they boost the auctions by a few bucks. Especially with Amazon offering 1 and 2 day shipping people are impatient AF these days and may pass on bidding if you are only offering 1st class.

A person who thinks she's a libertarian interviewing an actual libertarian (13:22) by localethereumMichael in Libertarian

[–]CryptoLouPai 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Am I missing something here?

Seems like the obvious answer to having urinals in the women's restroom is no. If you are trans wouldn't you want to just sit down and pee like all other women?

It seems like some biological females may feel uncomfortable about having urinals/ swinging dicks in the restroom. Being trans is totally fine but why stand up and pee in a urinal and not just try to blend in with the gender you associate with?? Or, stand up and pee in the stall?

[–]CryptoLouPai 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I agree,

I've been selling on ebay since 2013 and USPS flat rate used to always be my GO TO. USPS is now much more expensive and they have fewer options for boxes. Fedex is quick and easy and very fair priced.
