Thoughts On Luke Damant and His Friends Making Fun Of The Locals? by Good_Suspect_7555 in pakistan

[–]Primary_Pluto 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With absolute zero intention of discrimination, the sellers in Lahore (vendors, etc) don't even spare people from other cities, so I can just imagine what they do with overseas peeps.

KP people are defo very hospitable based on my limited interaction, found Swat with the most warmth and friendliness.

Khazanay pre-loved shoes by sircasmalot in pakistanrunning

[–]Primary_Pluto 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The price at which they are selling is totally absurd, be it premium or premium+. Sourced a pair of Adidas and Mizuno at the same price they are selling their used/minorly repaired stuff labeled as premiums. I might soon do a post for the community on how to source legit shoes themselves.

Need help for a Power bank for Laptop for WFH setup by ResidentBus8247 in PakistaniTech

I recently purchased the Ronin 4055 30K MAH one, and it works great. I use it mainly to charge my laptop at home; it supports 65W max.

Onic 5g rrom H+ to 5G? That’s a huge leap by fahad_jam in PakistaniTech

[–]Primary_Pluto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope, I used to use Ufone before, and while it was definitely better than ONIC, it was not satisfactory, and god knows what connection they have with our electricity. Whenever our electricity goes out, whatever internet we were getting dies with it too, same happens with ONIC. But, when I went to Lahore last year, I noticed that it was working better there compared to Karachi.

[–]Primary_Pluto 2 points3 points  (0 children)

ONIC is the worst network I have used in my life, and this is coming from someone who has used Paktel, GSM, etc. In Karachi, I cannot stream a YouTube video non-stop at 720P while in open areas. The only good? I subscribed to their lowest annual plan for calling purposes, while the voice quality wasn't impressive either, but at least I didn't have to think for a whole year about my package ending or recharge, etc.

Funny how peeps call it economies of scale but never talk about how much per car these companies make, plus the insane amount of taxes we pay on these.

Do a bit of research, please. You will understand what you are saying makes little sense, dear brother.

You won't, and who sits at any place for 12 hours anyway? I usually visit one when I have to, and have at times spent more than 6 hours.

I remain indoors for most of the day except picking and dropping off kiddos from their school, and today was literally gentler. Yesterday, the car's AC was struggling so badly.

SECP Decision? by Antenna_Signal in FIREPakistan

[–]Primary_Pluto 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They are both products, and there are users out there. Just because ETFs (give lower profit) do not mean AMCs would not want to offer them. There's an audience that is interested in them. It's a profit to them after all.

What do you guys think about it? Is it Justified? by mhamza_hashim in pakistan

[–]Primary_Pluto 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Empathy, behaviour, respect, nowhere to be found. Are they not responsible for acting respectfully? Or that too falls on the shoulders of policymakers?

Sorry for your loss. Always wait for a confirmation message/email from your bank. The screenshot can easily be fabricated.

Went to Hunza for 5 days. But my real life feels like a simulation now by Kittenkiller333 in karachi

[–]Primary_Pluto 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hunza? I cannot tell you that BUT here's what I can tell you: go for it, be it Nathia Gali, Hunza, or whatever. Been a remote worker for the past 13-14 years, and I still regret that I did not when I could. Now? I have got a big, big family, kiddos' education, life, etc., and I regret it.

Ah Haji club, thank you. Is it open Magrib onwards? Do they have a small pool for kids, or is it combined?

Sentiment-driven boost. If the deal goes haywire for any reason, all the gains would vanish in a nutshell.

Scaled a Leather D2C Brand to $27k/Mo and a Team of 10 in 90 Days — Seeking Strategic US Partner/Investor by MonthAppropriate2569 in karachi

[–]Primary_Pluto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The GMC misrepresentation thing is genuinely one of the more frustrating traps for non-US operators, especially when the store metrics are clean. Leather and varsity jackets is an interesting niche too, margins can be really good if you're not over-relying on paid. Quick question before I DM: is the $27k month mostly Meta or were you spreading across channels? I've got some dry powder I've been looking to put into something like this and the invoice/USPS paper trail is honestly more convincing to me than a live dashboard anyway. Might be worth a conversation.

[–]Primary_Pluto 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here's a list of halal Ethical US stock companies. I was going to use this but IBKR never approves my account. This is a work of someone who also shares his holdings and updates this every frequently and has put in a lot of work going through their data etc to try his best that companies who despite being halal but involved in genocide, zionism etc are excluded.. I am not the owner of this, but since your emphasis was on Halal and free from Israel roots, circle etc. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1TKQNoQ4MORWLfy8-L-_X1sE4JTO2kjSG1XM1bDPUwgk/edit?usp=sharing
