  @_ClimateCraze In Florida, it is possible to find very cheap—and even free—solar panels. When existing systems are removed or upgraded, word spreads quickly and the used panels are snapped up fast. Professional installers and businesses can earn extra money by alerting friends and business associates where the discarded panels are located awaiting disposal. The removed panels are the property of the land owner. It’s cheaper to just let the public take them than to pay to have them hauled away. For example, last year the Orange County Convention Center gave 6,000 panels away. Used commercial panels are often listed on Craigslist and Facebook Marketplace. I have several in my yard that powers my refrigerator, microwave, USB devices and lights. When a tropical storm or hurricane hits I'm ready for when the grid to go down.

  @Kintakus @RobotPerson78 I hear the cost for escorts has gone up from $25 per hand as was on Craigslist to $100k on 𝕏 or 60k if in San Francisco. As long as can afford it and not fording someone unwilling to do it and threaten them with guns and extortion probably can do and gets you in trouble for hiring escorts if not CEO or billionaire as extra risk

  That’s protocol control. I’m asking about economic control. They don’t need to control development, my node, or the miners to matter in a split. Miners will go where the money is. So if Wall Street controls a growing share of the capital, custody, ETFs, and liquidity, and Bitcoin splits, which side gets that money? I’ve been in Bitcoin since 2009. Back then, we had to guess what the damn thing was worth. We’d post on Craigslist and trade BTC for $25 so we could grab a quarter sack, or swap it for PC parts. Trust me, that loyal era of Bitcoiners is gone. When it comes down to it, they’ll go where the money is.

  @Neutral_OC This is what home warranty gets you. Home warranties are a ******* scam. They send out the bottom of the barrel technicians from random companies. They send out a guy from Craigslist and after he doesn't fix your problem and charges you money you will never see him again.

  Dave Ramsey breaks down how a caller got trapped in a horrible $30,000 car loan "You got screwed twice" Caller : "I owe right around 30,000 on it... I pay like 900 dollars a month" Dave: "You owe 30 and... it's worth around 20... you could put it on Craigslist and probably sell it for 25"

  @AnarchoDarling And the problem with Craigslist, is here anyway it’s just become “boom-list” where boomers with nothing better to do relist the same junk priced ABOVE new retail again and again for literally decades. They need to de-prioritize sellers who don’t actually want to sell there…

  In the same way that Craigslist was a generic solution to the problems better served by more tailored solutions like Airbnb, TaskRabbit, and other marketplaces.

  The Automotivist (@_automotivist) reported 36 minutes ago

  Bought a broken Ford Escape Hybrid off Craigslist for three grand once. The previous owner swore the hybrid battery was dead and priced it like scrap. A fifty-dollar charger and twenty minutes online said otherwise. Everyone else read the headline on that listing. I ran the actual number underneath it, and that's the whole difference between what happened with the Fed today and what happens at your own dealership every time. Friday's issue breaks down this week's freshest price record next to who can actually still afford to buy it.

  @r_zthai lol right? At 20, I’d reverse engineer the damn board in Eagle if it would save a few bucks. Now? Ehhhh. Nah, thanks. Read your post this morning and thought “well ****, why don’t I?” Got me to actually diagnose the problem, and I snapped some pics of the washer + dryer so the missus can throw ‘em up on Craigslist now. Done deal. Buying a new one was arguable if it was just some crap that froze the pump. Burned out motor controller means I’d be waiting around until next week to see if that was even really the root of the problem. Or at the very least I’d have to dump another couple hours into verifying everything that gets plugged into the board is okay. On top of… finding a laundry mat while I waited, I guess?

  @sssarahohhh Like 6 months ago I tried posting this onto Craigslist (I don’t have Facebook so marketplace is out) and I didn’t get any takers and took down the post so I’m accepting any and all ideas!

  Hello. I am Arben. I have a terrible track record online. Tried to sell a bunch of stuff on Craigslist. Several women offered me their body in lieu of cash. Joined a dating site. All responses were fetish chicks. I didn’t know that adult women like to pretend to be babies. It was weird. Been on x for about 1-2 years. So far, so good.

  @realkarenjean They're burner cars bought from craigslist. Purchased from private party, with zero intent on registering. They smash into someone / something, abandon the vehicle, then they track down the original owner, who then has to defend themselves...

  @Bl00DBaptism Well done. The Holy Spirit lets us see our ways are retarded and end up causing pain and suffering to ourselves and the ones we love. I'm trying to live insanely frugal while my mom tries to hoard all the materialistic things she can. She doesn't realize at 70 she doesn't have much time left. Or maybe she does realize it and is doubling down on sin. Have been selling all the stuff I don't need on craigslist and tossing out the stuff that isn't worth anything. Whatever is on your mind will be your god at worst, or at best interferes with obedience to God. Obedience to God = peace while disobedience = dread. I prefer peace.

  Every free-stuff feed — Buy Nothing, Facebook, Craigslist — has the same decay problem: listings rot, pickups fall through, nothing gets logged. Stoopling is the 24/7 agent that closes the whole loop. Verify, match, schedule, report. The stoop just went autonomous. Live soon.

  @r_zthai I’m glad I decided to pull and inspect the motor controller before completely pulling off the front panel - There were quite a few more screws to get at before that was gunna be done lol. Yeah, this machine is like the opposite of serviceable. Contributed a bit to my desire to replace it. What’s that old saying? “If you can’t fix it, you don’t own it”? Guess in my case its “if it’s a PITA to fix, maybe I don’t want to own it” lol Question remains: I can get a replacement control board on eBay for about $85. There’s a case to be made for fixing it and slinging it on Craigslist for a couple bucks to recoup some cash. Or just slinging it as-is for less, now that I’ve identified the problem.

  A company hated a tiny newsletter. So it sent the writers live spiders and a bloody pig mask. It just cost them $55.7 MILLION to say sorry. > Ina and David Steiner ran a small trade newsletter called ECommerceBytes from their home in Natick, Massachusetts, covering eBay and other online marketplaces. > In August 2019, Ina published a story about eBay suing Amazon over poaching sellers. > Thirty minutes later, eBay's CEO Devin Wenig messaged his communications chief: "If you are ever going to take her down now is the time." > The instruction to eBay's security team was even blunter: "Whatever It Takes." > What followed was a coordinated harassment campaign > The Steiners received live spiders, live cockroaches, a bloody pig mask, a funeral wreath, and a book about surviving the death of a spouse. > Pornographic magazines were sent to their neighbors under David's name, and their house was listed on Craigslist as a nightly destination for "swingers." > That same month, eBay's security director and two employees flew from California to Natick, followed David around town, and tried to plant a GPS tracker on the couple's car. > The Steiners reported the rental van's license plate to local police, which unraveled the entire scheme and brought in the FBI. > Seven eBay employees and executives were criminally charged; all pleaded guilty, with the ringleader sentenced to 57 months in prison. > Wenig resigned in 2019 but walked away with $17 MILLION in compensation that year plus a $40 MILLION severance package. > The Steiners sued in 2021. > This week, nearly seven years after it began, eBay and several former executives agreed to a final $55.7 MILLION settlement, $48.7 MILLION to the couple, $6 MILLION to free-press charities, and a public statement admitting the conduct was "wrong" and "reprehensible." A publisher wrote one story a CEO didn't like. His team sent dead spiders and a pig mask to her house. It took nearly seven years and $55.7 million to fix.

  @Rationale_Male No it's not. I used to run with a whole gaggle of knuckleheads from poor and broken homes. 1 is in prison. The cousins he was raised with are both dead. Some are alcoholics and burnouts who are 30 to 40 years old still living with their parents. The ones that are ok are divorced, sometimes 2x over, or living lives of service doing charity work for troubled kids through churches. The few determiners between me and everyone else I grew up with is slightly more money ( I was lower to middle middle class) and the fact I had a two parent home. Where as most of my friends grew up in poverty , raised by single moms , or an aunt in one case. Or by an alcoholic step mom in another case. I wouldn't trade my life with anyone I was friends with. I wouldn't trade the outcomes or lessons learned between me and them either And given the account I'm replying to, a couple in some instances may have attracted more women when they were 15. But not by the time I was in my 20s , and I'm the one who ended up in a stable marriage with a kid that excels. At best they ended up with baby mamas with kids that curse them out in the grocery store. If they got a woman or a kid at all There's nothing glorious or glamorous about struggling as a youth 1 out of 100 learns amazing lessons from it. Most get trampled by the experience and never exceed the adults that raised them Come back and talk when you know girls that went into porn and it just seemed like a no duh bc her mom sold her *** on Craigslist. Or when your buddy who's mom was a ****** and dad was a unknown John , mom died so Grandma took him in. Grandma dies so he becomes a foster kid . Aunt figures she can get social security check so she brings him in but soon as he's old enough to work odd jobs he has to buy his own toilet paper, toothpaste and grew up using water with cereal bc he wasn't allowed to touch the milk used from his aunt, cousins and whatever man she was sleeping with . He ended up in juvie and later as an adult . prison . Or the twins who were raised my mom and daddy number 3 with 4 other siblings who got beat by their sherrif step father Or the dentists child who got divorced and dentist won custody. Remarried. Dentist gets nailed for dealing drugs. Step mom raisj the child and she's passed out on the couch every night from drinking Or or or..I could write. A book of stories. The fights. The theft rings. The drugs at 13 and 14 years old that most people don't even get offered until they're in college , at best. My childhood first girlfriend was raw dawged ********** at a house party 3 houses from where I grew up. About 2 to 3 months after we broke up. I had to turn down ' my turn'. I was barely 14. She was 13. So yeah. Uh. **** kids struggling. A whole lot of other **** comes along with being raised by struggling parents who are trying to do it alone , they're over worked and come home exhausted and stressed to the point they hide in a bottle or zone out in front of TV while their kids run around tearing down the world.

  @collin_ruth89 Biggest difference maker for me has been the ability to process a higher volume of candidates with less effort: - Build a semi-automated applicant funnel in GHL or Breezy - Run continuous job posts on Indeed, Craigslist, Facebook Ads - Have my AI agent screen and evaluate all incoming applications - Have my AI agent conduct and evaluate the initial voice interview screen - Actually interview only the top applicants after the steps above This, especially the AI voice interview screen, has allowed us to interview 3X more people in a month, and identify more good candidates this way. I’m finally able to solve my capacity problem.

  @TheAlphaThought Buy a used car from a private individual who listed on Craigslist or marketplace in the last 2 weeks to ensure you're getting a deal. Beat them up on the price. Cool if it's needs a detail or has a little scratch you can fix for cheap. Then you resell for same price in 2 years.
