00:13 asciilifeform speakin' of collapse & shortages of erryday items, turns out that furniture made of actual wood has '6+ mo' (i.e. unbounded, a la btc miners) queues. and that's with prepay
00:13 asciilifeform and even if willing to pay 5fig$.
~ 53 minutes ~
01:06 mats try RH
~ 1 hours 24 minutes ~
02:30 asciilifeform mats: that RH?
02:31 asciilifeform 'AN IMPORTANT DELIVERY UPDATE. We’re experiencing delays due to challenges from COVID-19 and its impact on our production partners and the global supply chain.'
02:31 asciilifeform some pretty epic overpriced rubbish in that shop... not 1 item loox like it could've existed in 1890s
02:37 mats i know some moneybags who've been shopping there, didn't have problems with availability
02:37 mats what are you looking to buy
02:37 asciilifeform mats: 1 of these
02:45 mats that's a tall order
02:45 asciilifeform unobtainium.
02:45 mats https://rh.com/catalog/product/product.jsp?productId=prod18860244&sale=false they have this in stock
02:46 asciilifeform it aint it tho
02:48 mats i prefer platform beds myself
02:49 * asciilifeform looking for specifically the item in linked photo. for weeks nao. found 0 except asicminer-style 'delivery someday' bullshit.
02:49 asciilifeform of the latter, found dozen+ vendors.
02:51 mats try again in a year
02:57 asciilifeform lolk
02:58 * asciilifeform strongly suspects that next yr even particleboard liquishit will be sold asicminer-style
~ 18 minutes ~
03:16 mats it will be ok
03:17 asciilifeform mats: you srsly think 'temporary shortages' ??
03:18 mats for example, i think auto supply chain will be ok by mid to fall 2022
03:19 asciilifeform can't resist to ask, how ? martians will land and airdrop parts ?
03:19 asciilifeform ( or they will replace the workers who can't live on the inflatola and dun see point in working ? )
03:20 asciilifeform ^ is what is usg.euphemistically referred to as 'labour shortage' in the fishwraps currently
03:21 mats yes, lots of people have and are retiring early
03:21 asciilifeform more often i suspect hobo.retiring
03:23 asciilifeform factory workers aint retiring to villas in costa rica, no.
03:23 billymg asciilifeform: https://www.dwr.com/bedroom-beds/matera-bed%2C-standard-headboard/5114-1.html?lang=en_US (w/ storage, queen, standard headboard, oak: available in 2 weeks -- walnut: 7 weeks)
03:23 asciilifeform billymg: it aint the linked item
03:24 asciilifeform the item billymg linked, asciilifeform can make w/ own hands, lol, in a weekend
03:24 billymg what's special about this one?
03:24 dulapbot Logged on 2021-12-24 21:30:02 asciilifeform: mats: 1 of these
03:25 asciilifeform billymg: the shelf/drawers
03:25 billymg one i linked has drawers as well
03:25 mats prices will go up and supply chains will slowly go back to normal
03:25 billymg under the bead
03:25 asciilifeform no shelf
03:25 mats unless there's something more novel than more variants i don't think the shortages will continue for many years
03:26 mats omicron is not sending many folk to hospital
03:26 asciilifeform mats: i expect Official proclamation of 'new variant' erry 3-6mo like clockwork 4evah
03:27 asciilifeform mats: whole covidiocy imho is quite transparent scheme to wind down the industrial economy. so actual physical effects of variant-of-the-day less interesting from that pov
03:27 mats wind down whose industrial economy though?
03:28 mats china's open for business
03:28 asciilifeform errybody else's
03:28 asciilifeform in china is more of a scheme to up the totalitarian temperature
03:28 asciilifeform (as i understand, quite successful)
03:29 mats sure, beijing is quite emboldened to act aggressively now
03:29 asciilifeform gleichschaltung.
03:30 mats no more 'hiding strength, biding time'
03:31 mats olympics in 6 weeks

03:42 mats i wonder whether putin really wants the rest of ukraine
03:42 mats seems unlikely to me
