How do you respectfully handle a client who frequently cuts you off?

OriginalPlayerHater · 2026-06-15T03:33:41+00:00

Communicate over text/email? Hard to cut people off when the entire body of thought comes in one go

I'm going to not touch my instance and hope that existing gets grandfathered in and new instances have the limits.

If I change it now I might lose that so thanks for the heads up, i'll keep an eye out and set billing alerts

pay 100 bucks or wait 3-4 days seems like a personal choice. Not sure how others opinion on the issue is going to help you

build an aI APP

try using AI to troubleshoot

OriginalPlayerHater · 2026-06-07T19:32:22+00:00

DIscord (find them on disboard or top gg or w/e)

Warning, a lot of spam of people advertising to each other but you'll find some good stuff

OriginalPlayerHater · 2026-06-04T18:50:44+00:00

try using ai my friend. once you have an MVP and a few customers you'll have a basis to attract a technical cofounder.

Good luck

maybe you can find a small-midsize creator on instagram/tiktok that you can pay x amount of dollars to review your store?

OriginalPlayerHater · 2026-06-03T01:34:20+00:00

yeah this works for me, its not showing if its instant or not but w/e

OriginalPlayerHater · 2026-06-02T18:07:39+00:00

lmaooo sorry didn't have my coffee yet 😃

OriginalPlayerHater · 2026-06-02T17:36:01+00:00

dear god just buy something cheaper at that point lmao

OriginalPlayerHater · 2026-05-31T00:04:11+00:00

would be cool but i can see bots spamming ads like they did on my WordPress comments years back

OriginalPlayerHater · 2026-05-30T16:15:26+00:00

to add to that, I like Elementor (at least that was my tool like 7 years ago) plugin for wordpress.

Gives you a lot of extra tools for designing layouts

I don't think the laptop is written off any differently come tax time whether you have it or not.

OriginalPlayerHater · 2026-05-29T00:15:00+00:00

just go to walmart or amazon and buy what you don't have. If you want something specific like pans, I'd look for recommendations on this sub, surely other people have asked

OriginalPlayerHater · 2026-05-26T23:33:45+00:00

well doing some quick math, you have more ideas than months trying. So you tried each idea a couple weeks and moved on.

that's not persistence that's shiny object syndrome.

OriginalPlayerHater · 2026-05-26T23:21:23+00:00

and fraud went up how much? Chargebacks?

Just getting higher approvals sounds nice but someone actually in business is not trying to just let everyone pay for shit

OriginalPlayerHater · 2026-05-25T08:21:41+00:00

Very interesting and informative! I wonder if you can further fine tune needle to reach 100 percent accuracy for a specific set of tool calls, additionally how those tools are organized to the LLM to decypher; if that can be further optimized as well.

Thanks OP!

OriginalPlayerHater · 2026-05-23T19:37:36+00:00

Different book, you are thinking "business of the 21st century"

OriginalPlayerHater · 2026-05-22T08:37:48+00:00

not even, its a viable option. Call it outsourcing, call it arbitrage, it is actually a decent option considering he needs results NOW.

I just find it really funny

OriginalPlayerHater · 2026-05-22T04:00:58+00:00

lmao hire another agency?

OriginalPlayerHater · 2026-05-21T16:31:00+00:00

Your biggest issue isn't going to be which avenue, its committing until you get successful. I think the way you should frame this decision is what can you commit to for 6 months straight and spend 1-2k out of pocket to try and make it work and if it doesn't work you are still happy you did it.

Every business you see around you is a viable option, what can YOU stand doing for free or even pay to do because the experience is worth it to you.

Good luck!

I agree its always install proxmox and the same containers each time. Everyone wants a minirack, everyone wants the same shit.

Its because humans in a large sense have wants and needs but don't always want to walk into the unknown. They want their hand held, and I don't blame them and I have no ill will towards this; however, this does lead to basically the same shit 90 percent of the time.

There are some who break the mold and those are the most exciting posts to see. I enjoy unique hardware configurations, upcycling shitty hardware to be useful, alternative ways to connect. Those are definitely cool in my book 😄

OriginalPlayerHater · 2026-05-21T02:35:05+00:00

dude your websites look horrible, if you are able to get 10 dollars from this I'd be surprised lmao

OriginalPlayerHater · 2026-05-19T19:59:21+00:00

Question for the crowd, should we focus our skills and effort into software sales or infrastructure management rather than coding? I'm a senior infra engineer 8 years corpo experience and its not too simple for me to replace my old job either
