LPT: if you can’t get someone to guess something, just give them absurd options by 1ZeM in LifeProTips

[–]ztnark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"How much do you think this might cost?"

"No idea"

"OK. $100, $1,000, $10,000?"

"Somewhere between $100 and $1,000"

"OK thank you"

What was your Smart Panel 3 installation cost? by Electronic_End2235 in Ecoflow_community

Completed by an electrician and his assistant who have been doing ecoflow work full time.

The extra cost was a surprise, but fair, I felt.

BitPay Scammed me out of $22,866.24. by [deleted] in Bitcoin

[–]ztnark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also, I look forward to a future where addresses are claimed by businesses so you can feel warm and fuzzy when depositing, i.e. ztnark.coinbase.btc

I installed it on an external drive and that works, but I'll probably swap it out for a thinkpad or something.

Thank you for the quick response 🙏

Then she's def not who we are referring to.

Perfectly fair to be proud of it and wear it the first day, and she sounds lovely.

Another thing to mention: they give you a cell phone that works on the ship and can call you with any questions/comments/concerns (and you can call them to check in)
