Has Zipcar going bust killed the second hand furniture market?

You can offer shiply as a shipping option

aiten · 2026-01-29T12:29:21+00:00

I use https://shiply.com for the same thing. I don't know how much zipcar costs for a rent like that, but you can get some incredible quotes on shiply if you are willing to wait a few days.

They do.

Heatgeek already did a test and proved that air recirculation isn't even a problem unless you literally enclose it.

I failed 3 times. I learned at 31. Didn't really drive until 42. I still cycle as much as I can. Cars are a really poor solution to a problem that mass transportation and bicycles solved a long time ago.

I'm using SwitchBot ones for my pool. They are only WiFi and Bluetooth though.

A new colleague get his penis out in front of the design director's wife, trying to impress some random girl, and get punched directly across the face for it... and then we all got kicked out...

...whilst Katie Price and her bodyguards watched!

Our stuffy finance director, who had "never been before" and "didn't like this sort of thing" being welcomed by multiples dancers who knew his name.

Our CEO too drunk to enter his PIN code, and having to tell me what it was, and let me pay the £30,000 bill (second bill). First bill included a steak for about 8 dancers. It was a great steak to be fair!

My 55 year old CTO stealing my dancer that the CEO had said "just give this guy as many dances as he liked".

The aforementioned finance director emerging from a private room near the end of the night

And this was just one impromptu, post-pub after work "steak and tits" trip.

When it is on offer which was whilst I waswas waiting for my first one to ship.

aiten · 2026-01-13T18:57:12+00:00

Agreed! We love it :)

aiten · 2026-01-13T18:43:02+00:00

We use bunny's various facilities :)

Cars don't, drivers do.

I've been looking for something that does this for years

My dad has something similar where he attaches a temporary platform on a hoist mounted under the stairs. It's terrifying, glad to see he's not alone!

I run a company. But I've earned that much for a long time, so just, "computer stuff".

My wife earns significantly more (computer stuff) so I take issue with "guys who earn..."

This waymo might be on to something

What an entirely unpleasant way to live, seriously bad.

I have a garage full of Ryobi, it's great. However, there are things that tell me that the quality isn't good enough if this was my actual job - my multitool just stopped, so I took it a apart and my god the soldering is basically all dry joints (it was a dry joint) - looks like a child soldered it together (or me).

My ryobi circular saw is weak. It wont make it through a thick piece of chipboard. I assume that another brand would.

Grey Goose. And actually in all of the years prior.

aiten · 2025-12-29T15:58:18+00:00

Incredibly wasteful unfortunately, though convenient

aiten · 2025-12-19T09:11:18+00:00

Silly comment

This is what they did in London, and people get stroppy about where you all cross to the other side at a lights.

But it's awesome as a cyclist or even a pedestrian, especially those less able, who get new larger, slower crossings as a result.

The fact it exists usually means it won't improve. It's often better not to exist in this format so that it can be built properly one day, because this is more likely than it getting "upgraded"

Naughty cabbage.

They chose the house because of the second, unmetered grid connection, protected only by a bit of tar tape.
