snsabot: Logged on 2020-08-17 23:43:18 thimbronion: Just bore witness to the Tide economy IRL - $10.00 per bottle, several bottles lined up on the curb near a burger joint. Mexican bystanders showing serious interest.
thimbronion: asciilifeform: was low on cash - but would have otherwise. I took some pics. Very nice meth head couple.
asciilifeform: thimbronion: reminds me of ye olde stolen goods market in timis., ro.

thimbronion: lol I hadn't seen these pics. That's ridiculous.
asciilifeform: thimbronion: it was in center of town, right next to the veggie market, erry weekend
asciilifeform: thimbronion: pretty lulzy, if seen up close -- lotsa '90s pnojes w/out mains bricks, mains bricks w/out pnojes, early 2000s pc mobos w/ broken-off corners, piles of cpus w/ pins bent from being carried in sack w/ 9000 rusty wrenches (presumably -- pinched from plumber trucks?) , half-full bottles of various household chem, and countless similar wtfs
asciilifeform: 'pssst, wanna buy half a stick of ram?'
thimbronion: asciilifeform: I've never seen anything like that. The brazenness.
asciilifeform: no moar brazen arguably than the open-air dope peddlers in baltimore, usa
asciilifeform: both exist through sheer force of tradition
thimbronion: asciilifeform: at least dope peddling is an honest profession.
asciilifeform: thimbronion: debatable. afaik they ~always water down the dopes.
asciilifeform: at least if you ask g. laddel...
snsabot: (trilema) 2017-11-24 gabriel_laddel: 1000x magnification seems unrealistic - that being said: if I crush some product, take hundreds of images of each sample & use them as input into a neural network along with a 1-10 (bunk-absolute fire) rating y'think it'll get trained to recognize the real deal?
thimbronion: asciilifeform: don't know if I mentioned - I met laddel in person - bumped into him at a lisp meetup.
asciilifeform: dun recall this mention
asciilifeform: thimbronion: was this before or after he vanished from net ?
thimbronion: asciilifeform: pre-maiming, pre-disappearance.
asciilifeform: thimbronion: did he try to sell you an ancient lappy w/ old gentoo + sbcl ?
thimbronion: asciilifeform: He did - I bought one and never used it.
asciilifeform: lol

asciilifeform: whaack loox like it's eating, atm.
asciilifeform: meanwhile in long-vanished #t folx : 1 of'em apparently selling a py walletron thing quite reminiscent (and possibly ripped directly off) jfw's item.
asciilifeform still finds the apparent absence of a chinesium-fg interesting.
asciilifeform: simplest hypothesis is prolly that grabbing a vtree and wrapping it in a payware is trivial, but baking irons 'too much like work'.
