02:54 Mocky another thing was that Qatari business men highly value honesty since many foreign partners actually do try to rip them off and are deceptive.
02:56 Mocky word was that they may be angry if they feel forced to pay for an intangible, but that will fade and you don't lose respect. but get caught in a lie and they are done with you
03:06 Mocky I'm still not used to friday and saturday being the weekend & so many places being closed between 1pm and 4pm every day
~ 10 hours 49 minutes ~
13:55 BingoBoingo Still alive. Switched from crushing antibiotics to make a suspension to just returning to the pharmacy and buying appropriate amount of bubble gum flavored suspension for niños over the loud protests of elderly lady disenfranchised by the act.
13:57 BingoBoingo "Medicaciones para niños necessitan recetas" "Es para yo mismo. Llamé a mi medico."

14:22 Mocky BingoBoingo, isn't bubble gum flavor just as gross?

15:10 diana_coman BingoBoingo, don't they sell just pills to swallow?
15:15 Mocky so, working on day 3 of no AC. Everyone I mention it to here laughs at me and says that no repair men here actually know how to fix anything, only to install new. AC, cars, computers, machinery. They just spend hours spinning bs to talk you into buying new.
15:16 diana_coman see, that might be why "no intangibles" - because everyone selling intangibles there actually sells "bs to talk you into buying new"
15:16 diana_coman but is it *your* AC or what?
15:18 Mocky no, i'm subletting a room via airbnb from a nigerian who rents it from someone who also sounds african on speakerphone. and thankfully unseasonably cool with now 2 years worth of rain in the last 2 days
↖
15:19 diana_coman sounds like a mess though
15:20 Mocky yeah, but not a big deal for me. I wouldn't want to be a landlord here tho
15:20 diana_coman but AC there is rather basic requirement, isn't it
15:21 Mocky yup, but seems like central air in homes is pretty rare. wallmounted units are the thing, with compressors on the roof.
↖
15:21 diana_coman ah
15:22 Mocky So can be replaced individually i bet! lol
15:22 diana_coman sounds like it, yes, lol

16:06 BingoBoingo <diana_coman> BingoBoingo, don't they sell just pills to swallow? << They do sell them, but at the moment with their size... they don't go down without fighting the surrounding environment
16:07 BingoBoingo And Gloria, the Peruana frowns upon breaking up the pills with oily pliers to make my own oral solution.
16:09 Mocky lol, why not stomp with boot heel :D
16:09 BingoBoingo Boot heel has touched dogshit. Hay muchos perros acá

17:19 mircea_popescu http://btcbase.org/log/2018-10-20#1864422 << yeah, ideally no js, and write against lynx ftw.
17:19 a111 Logged on 2018-10-20 18:01 billymg: curious what type of browser environments the lords use -- when writing a theme for mp-wp will need to know what kind of font, css, js support to expect
17:21 mircea_popescu http://btcbase.org/log/2018-10-20#1864427 << nothing imported from google servers will ever work for me, for instance. so keep everything local. don't add more javascript. keep markup to the absolute minimum.
17:21 a111 Logged on 2018-10-20 18:04 billymg: is there perhaps a list of "definitely don't use [feature], will never load for republicans"
17:23 mircea_popescu http://btcbase.org/log/2018-10-20#1864445 << not so, was briefly dead but then adobe released a new set after 5+ years silence and it's catching back up.

17:23 a111 Logged on 2018-10-20 18:10 asciilifeform: lol afaik even the heathens have largely forgotten flashism
17:24 mircea_popescu because html5 was done by morons (ie, "community" in pantsuit style) and it couldn't be later or more useless (cue here, how opengl managed to LOSE its having defeated directx, a decade later)
17:25 billymg mircea_popescu: acknowledged, can definitely stay within those bounds
17:25 mircea_popescu cool.

17:40 mircea_popescu http://btcbase.org/log/2018-10-20#1864461 << this sounds like a recipe for certain failure...
17:40 a111 Logged on 2018-10-20 18:27 Mocky: because insurance was to expensive for the given coverage, but because "paying money to get nothing".

17:58 a111 Logged on 2018-10-20 18:28 asciilifeform: Mocky: is the implication also that they dun bother to look into totalcostofownership before buying ? hence the legends of bedouin sheiks buying a merc and leaving it in desert when fuel tank empty ..?
17:59 mircea_popescu http://btcbase.org/log/2018-10-20#1864468 << you're very much not there to sell anything ; you realise this, do you ?
