  If any of you guys are having an issue with… Impulse control. May I suggest… On a whim… Get a puppy off Craigslist. That ‘cured’ my impulsive tendencies. I now have a reminder… Every time I move… My toes are attacked… By a 3 lb gremlin. No impulsive behavior…

  @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…

  Part 2 of When technology meets traditional business. After we figured out how to generate demand, we almost destroyed the business. We built an SEO-driven website, dominated Craigslist (this was 2011), and cut quote turnaround from days to hours. Sales exploded. The problem? We had optimized customer acquisition—not operations. Orders piled up faster than we could process them. Deliveries slipped. Suppliers became frustrated. Our showroom filled with customers, but we didn't have enough salespeople to help them. Some visitors waited hours after driving across Southern California just to see us. Six months in, we did something that felt completely backwards. We shut off almost all of our marketing. For nearly two months we hired staff, rebuilt our processes, reset customer expectations, and only then turned growth back on. Luckily, the business survived, and started to re-ramp. Year 1: $750K Year 2: $1.5M Year 3: $3.5M Founders spend countless hours planning for failure. Spend some time planning for success. Your biggest risk might not be too little demand—it might be more demand than your business can deliver. #30YearsHardKnocks

  The alternative is to find an obscured listing on Craigslist or Facebook or drive down industrial roads looking for handmade rental signs. I'm not trying to play 6D chess just to replace the assets I already have.

  I've only ever been employed for less than 10 days my entire life, split across 3 different jobs. Funny enough, 2 of those jobs I got scammed. So, I can understand why a lot of young folks may have negative opinions on businesses. 1) Dog walker when I was 19 years old, found a small business on craigslist. Said $13/hour. I spent an hour training with the owner, then went to work the next day. During a normal shift of 6 hours, there'd be a scheduled route for all the clients. Many of the clients were 15-20 minutes away from each other, and you didn't get paid for the travel time. Additionally, gas wasn't reimbursed. Net I was making about $5-6/hour. quit the next day, guy seemed annoyed 2) Cable salesman for DirectTV, but I didn't work for corporate directly. Some guy who ran a 3rd party sales business through them and had a booth inside of Costco. We would stand at the entrance and try to get customers to the booth to sell them cable. Pay was $10+ 20% commission I did nearly a full week of training to start off -- the work was paid to be clear, that part wasn't the scam. However, it wasn't until after that entire week did he show me the employment contract. The catch? You only got the 20% commission once you got over $1000 in sales, and that number was reset weekly. Thus $1200 in sales would only result in commission on the $200 surplus = $40 instead of $240 He didn't even apologize for the lack of clarity, in fact, he doubled down: "If you do a lot of commission sales why's that a problem?"

  3/N But here's the thing: Craigslist ads get you applicants. They don't get you world-class data. That part comes down to how you treat the people collecting it. My management philosophy is simple: treat people like people. More precisely: - pay people well - make them feel like part of the mission - trust them and believe in their potential

  @grok @cryptorover @grok this is a copy and paste to a post I made. You agree or disagree that we need to not rely on old data as much as past and continue mapping the market? “The lesson isn’t just conviction. It’s surviving the volatility long enough for that conviction to matter. But I’d add one more thing: don’t confuse an old cycle rule with a law of Bitcoin. I watched Bitcoin change in phases. I got into Bitcoin back when we used Craigslist to trade it for cash, ****, pizza, PC parts, whatever. You met people personally. Like any network, eventually you figured out where everyone hung out, where information moved and where people traded. Then exchanges came along and gave Bitcoin a real market price. Then derivatives, perp trading and DeFi showed up. By around 2016, we had enough history to map what looked like a real pattern around the halving. But the nerds watching this **** develop understood something important: The cycle was a map of Bitcoin at that stage of its life. It wasn’t doctrine. Bitcoin was still a baby. The infrastructure was still being built. Now look at it. Wall Street is here. ETFs are here. Corporations are holding it on their balance sheets. Governments that once treated Bitcoiners like criminals are accumulating it, regulating it and building policy around it. Stablecoins, institutional custody, derivatives and massive pools of capital are now connected to the same market. That’s a completely different machine. The problem is that as new people entered Bitcoin, they were taught the four-year cycle without being taught the most important part: The map can change. Over time, a useful observation became a rule. Then the rule became doctrine. I’m telling you now, after going back through the plumbing: The map is changing. The old cycle isn’t necessarily dead. But it isn’t running Bitcoin by itself anymore.”

  @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.

  @justalexoki Find an old one on Craigslist 20+ years old or something. You can find any part and fix it as needed. My washer and dryer are not modern and every few years I spend 15-60 minutes changing some $20 parts following YouTube.

  Ducky (@insultduck) reported 24 minutes ago

  This is absolutely correct. In fact, it's a good lesson for when you start dating someone new. Don't go looking in his or her web browser history or anything like that. Just open his or her computer, pull up any site with ads (like yahoo, or reddit, or facebook, or youtube... even Amazon... anything really) and pay attention to the ads that are displaying. They're being suggested because he or she has searched for, or interacted with content, about those topics in the past. Wanna know if your new boyfriend is a crossdresser? Pull up Amazon and see if he's being suggested ******* and butt plugs. Lol. Personally, I love all the famous dudes who get caught with tranny porn on their phones, and instead of simply admitting that they think a man who is pretending to be a ***************** is hot, they start babbling about how the stuff just magically pops up on their phones. This happened to Alex Jones years ago. He showed a screenshot of his phone on one of his shows and he had tabs open to hardcore tranny **** scenes. Then, he ridiculously tried to deny it. Lol. I had started dating a new girl many years ago and was using her laptop while staying at her place one night. I kept seeing various ads for discreet encounters, Ashley Madison, stuff like that. Did some digging and uncovered her long history of giving anonymous blow jobs to dudes on craigslist for free back when they still had personal ads. Ended that one pretty quick. There's a huge difference between a girl with a high body count, and one allowing herself to be throated by any random dude who wants to do so. Nothing wrong with doing some investigating when you start dating a new guy or gal. You shouldn't expect your crush to be perfect. But, you don't want him or her to be a totally broken individual either.

  7 HIGH-PRESSURE SITUATIONS GOLDEN HIPPO PUT ME THROUGH IN 10 YEARS 1) Every brand was banned from all ad networks at the same time. Revenue on the front end went to zero. People were wondering if we'd have to shut the company down. That's when I found out I do my best work when things are actually on fire, not when it's a drill. 2) I made my first $1M/month during that crisis. Before that, I didn't think email was exciting. I was excited about the revenue number, not the channel. I didn't understand what email could actually do until it was the only thing left standing between us and closing. 3) The higher-ups noticed, and changed how they ran the whole team because of it. What I did under pressure became the new expectation for everyone else. That was the first time I saw performance turn into policy. 4) We built an entire brand, filming, backend, everything, and the front end just never took off. We walked away. Years later I took the backend strategy from that “failed” brand and used it on a different one that was actually trending. The month I spent on the first one wasn't wasted. It just paid off late. 5) They handed a small team a brand they'd basically given up on, told us to just play with it, and nicknamed it The Sandbox. It's now one of their most profitable brands, and most people don't even know it's theirs. 6) Less than a year into my marketing career, I built a product testing program from scratch, starting with people I recruited off Craigslist to try products and answer surveys. I had no business running something modeled after a medical study. It evolved into the system they still run today. It became core to how they validate products before launch. 7) For years I couldn't let go of any brands I had already optimized. I thought it was faster to just do things myself than teach someone else how. They kept pulling me off writing and putting me on copy chief instead, training other writers rather than producing the copy myself. It felt like a demotion from the thing I was actually good at. What I didn't see yet was that every hour I spent training someone made me need them less later, not more.

  The other day I talked about buying a used gun. I had several comments about how I should never do that because you have no idea if the previous owner took care of it. I am near to tell you that is hogwash. Buying used guns is safe as long as you know what you are doing. I love buying used guns. You can find great deals and as a devoted cheapskate, I love saving money! But you have to know how to do it or your low priced used gun can quickly become a high priced gun. If you buy from a gun store you have some built in protections. If your used gun doesn't work properly the store has an obligation to fix it for you. Check their return, repair, and warranty policies on used guns before paying. But if it's a reputable gun shop they have already test fired it and verified it is in good working condition. And if there ends of being a problem a reputable store will apologize profusely and repair it for you at no cost within a reasonable time frame. If a gun store selling used guns doesn't make any guarantees, walk away. You want nothing from that store. But what about the gun you saw an online ad for from someone you don't know? It's a cash deal and an 'all sales are final' situation. The burden is on you to make sure it's a good deal. First off don't impulse buy a used gun you know nothing about. Believe me, I understand the temptation. I have more than one that was acquired due to raw emotions and thoughts of the "Must have the new shiny" variety. So I'm not judging you. But knowing what you're buying makes a huge difference in how well things work out for you. So you see an online ad from a guy nearby for a gun you think you want. You can afford his asking price. But is it worth his asking price? The first thing you need to do is see if it's a reasonable price. Just because you can afford it doesn't mean it's a good deal. Look up the new prices of that gun first. Often I've found that the used asking price is $50 less than a brand new one. If you really want that specific model gun, spend the extra $50 and get a brand new one that comes with factory warranties and no unknown history. It's always worth the extra $50 to buy those assurances. Then look at used prices. Search engines are your friend. No matter what gun it is, there is a recent sale of one. If the asking price is $500 you want to make sure you can't find 5 other copies of the same gun for $400. It is on you to make sure you are getting a reasonable price. If you agree to a high price and find out later you overpaid, that isn't the seller's problem. It's your problem. If you don't know how to valuate a used gun, learn first. On that note it is perfectly reasonable to be willing to pay $50 over market value because the seller lives two blocks away and you wouldn't have to drive an hour and a half to meet him. Your time has value. You also need to know how to evaluate the condition of the gun. This is more important than the price. If you overpay for a great fun that works fine.... oh well. You still got a nice gun. If you get a gun with problems it doesn't matter if you underpaid. You're out money and still don't have a working gun. When you meet up with the seller he will let you inspect the gun. That means dissembling it and checking the parts. Tell the seller up front that you'll want to do this. If he says no, walk away no matter what the price is. It is unreasonable to not let a buyer inspect the item. Doesn't matter if it's a used gun or a used leaf blower. But it is not unreasonable for the seller to want you to evaluate it quickly and make a final decision fast. So you need to know what you're looking at. You should know how to disassemble the specific model gun before you show up. You don't have to be an expert that can do it blindfolded while hanging upside down. (To anyone who gets the Major Payne reference there, you are my people). But you need to know how to do it. The seller should know too, but you'd be surprised. I bought a Glock off a guy once carried it every day for years. It was his go to side arm. He had no idea whatsoever how to disassemble it. You want to inspect the barrel to make sure there isn't pitting on the inside. (meaning rust that has been scraped off) You want to look for surface rust over the entire gun. You want to make sure there are no cracks in the frame or any signs of serious neglect. Any chips out of the metal around the chamber or rust are big red warning flags. Does the firing pin or striker come come through the breach when manually pressed? Check all these things and more. But what if the gun looks fine overall but the barrel has some pitting on it? Circle back to knowing what the value of the gun is in advance, you should also have an idea of what the individual parts cost in advance. Say you have a Glock 19 you want to buy. You should already know how much under new retail the seller is asking. If it is $100 less than retail but it has a bad barrel you should know that a replacement barrel will run you $100 or more. So suddenly this gun could cost you as much or more a brand new one. But maybe everything looks fine except the striker. The seller tells you up front it is broken and he just wants to get rid of the gun. You should know that the striker is a $25 to $40 part depending on where you buy it. And it's easy to replace. If that is the only problem you add $25 - $40 to the total price and if it's still a good deal, great! If you put it all together and function test it and everything seems to work like it's supposed to and the price seems right, enjoy your new used gun! For a gun like a Glock this is easy. They all work the same way and quickly break down in to 4 parts that are easy to inspect. If it has a red dot sight just make sure that work as well. Same for an AR-15 or any other easy to dissemble gun. But if the deal is for a .22lr rifle that has a bunch of tiny parts and requires tools to dissemble, that's a bigger risk. I can field strip my Glocks and inspect them and resemble them in 2 minutes. But I have a .22lr rifle that takes me 20 minutes to disassemble and needs a wrench and a screwdriver. (Guess how often I clean it? The grey gunk that oozes out of it will give you a hint.) A seller isn't going to spend an hour letting you figure out how to take apart his gun for a $200 sale. So this is more of a risk. I recently passed on a .22 rifle with a scope. It was $250 but I wasn't an expert in the model rifle. And with all the parts of the gun, the scope, the rings, any one of which could have been a problem this cheap rifle had the potential of being a really expensive rifle quickly. So I walked away. You don't want to buy a project gun unless you're into fixing up old ones and know how to evaluate parts needs quickly. No matter what, you're taking a risk buying a used gun without firing it. Now, if you can meet at the range and test it first, all the better. Nothing like seeing that it works properly before buying. That covers how to check the quality of the gun and pricing. But you also need to consider the seller. If you are bad at judging people quickly, buying used guns from strangers is not for you. When I buy a used gun I am evaluating the seller as much as I am evaluating the condition of the gun. Does he seem honest? Does he seem like he is hiding something about the condition of it? Is he covered in blood and in a hurry to complete the sale? You need to observe these details. Maybe I'm not sure about the condition of the gun but I trust the seller. I may be willing to take a little extra chance that it works fine. On that same note, you need to make sure the seller doesn't give off a "I'm going to kill you" vibe. If you are buying a handgun you need to transfer it at an FFL. Do your inspection of the gun and disassembly inside the well lit store. The FFL will want to see your driver's license and the seller's driver's license. At that point the seller isn't likely to be a criminal. I feel very safe in this situation being in a gun store where the FFL has a copy of the seller's ID. Bad guys intending to do you harm aren't going to do all this. They will stick to the Craigslist deals for a TV to lure in a victim carrying cash to a back ally meet up spot. But if it's a long gun and an FFL isn't required your guard needs to be WAY up. First off you can say you want to do a transfer through an FFL anyway. It'll cost you an extra $20 to $50 depending on your FFL fees but that gives you all the protections mentioned above. If you don't want to do that make sure you have a safe meet up place. And be armed. Do not show up to meet a guy you know will have a gun when you are unarmed. Do not be that stupid. When I buy or sell things on Craigslist I like to meet up in front of a nearby bank's ATM because the ATM has a security camera running 24/7. I used to tell people why I picked that spot and that I knew the bank manager who would give me the video (I didn't actually know the manager, but they didn't know that). I've had 1 person who wasn't interested in meeting me there after that and I was happy to not make that sale. Pro Tip: Don't meet to exchange a gun in front of a bank. That's called being a moron. It's a great option for buying a used DVD from Facebook Marketplace. But for a gun sale you want a public place that won't invite scrutiny over a visible gun. The parking lot of a gun store is often a good option. There will be security cameras. The people who are in that parking lot won't freak out by seeing a gun. You should check with the store first to make sure they are cool with it. They may even welcome you to do a non FFL exchange inside depending on how friendly they are. If the seller has any hesitation to a public place with cameras, stop the conversation and block his email. I also said if you can test the gun first, that's better. But don't invite a seller you don't know to your outdoor range where you will be the only two people there shooting live ammo. Be smarter than that. You'll be focused on the gun and inspecting it, not the stranger who you know has guns. If you can't meet at a populated range you should skip the testing part. Get a dated bill of sale that includes the seller's info from his driver's license and the serial number of the gun. If that gun turns out to be a murder weapon you'll be very happy that you have some evidence that you gained possession of it after the date of the crime and have someone else you can point the cops towards. Same thing goes if you are selling a gun. If the gun you sold ends up being used in a crime you'll be very happy you have evidence that it left your possession prior to that. There are downloadable blank bill of sale forms all over the internet. You don't have to make up a custom one. Finally, know the laws in your state. Does this gun have to be transferred through an FFL or is a face to face sale legal? Is the gun you are buying legal in your state? The odds that the seller is actually an ATF agent setting you up is never 0. Be smart. If he tries to convince you that you don't need to go through an FFL to transfer his full auto suppressed SBR it's definitely an ATF agent.

  "the info space is saturated" is the most expensive lie in this industry. there's a huge difference between SATURATED and CONCENTRATED. anyone who understands that difference will get filthy rich look at any info niche and you'll see the same thing... one aesthetic swallowed the entire category: Trading → Lamborghinis, penthouse charts, Dubai skyline, 22-year-old in a watch he financed. Agency → same Dubai, rented Rolls, "I was broke 9 months ago," whiteboard, hoodie. Fitness → shirtless 24-year-old with abs he had at 16, screaming about discipline. Real estate → no-money-down, "I closed this off Craigslist," podcast studio nobody records in. every single one of those lanes is a bloodbath. 400 people fighting over the same customer. now ask the question nobody asks: who does that aesthetic actively repel? because that person still wants the outcome. they just refuse to become that guy to get it. the 44-year-old dad who wants $2k a month trading before work and would be embarrassed if his wife saw a Lambo video in his feed. The guy in Ohio who wants $15k a month and to stay in Ohio, near his parents, in his house. the 38-year-old with a bad back and 45 minutes, who cannot be coached by someone who's never been tired. the nurse who wants one duplex. Not thirty doors. One. run the math on any of these. If the dominant aesthetic pulls 15% of the market, generously, then 85% of the buyers in your "saturated" niche have no one speaking to them at all. there is no second option for them to choose. you'd be the only one. this is Counter Positioning, and it's the only reason to enter a crowded market. You don't beat the category leaders. just become answer for everyone the leader repels. I did this with a women's day trading coach. 2,000 followers, $200/month when we started. This past July we hit $250K in a month... in the single most saturated niche on the internet. Not by being a better version of the Lambo guys.

  Drew Houston on the growth hacks Dropbox used to acquire millions of users Dropbox founder Drew Houston reflects the distribution challenge most startups face in the early days: “You can buy all the AdWords in the world but if nobody’s searching for what you’re making, you have a problem.” Drew eventually landed on a two-step solution to solve Dropbox’s cold start problem. Step 1: make a product that people really love to use. “Good engineering and good design are part of it, but one of the ways I think about it is maximizing the probability that your customer ends up with a solved problem. That’s why Craigslist — which was started in the 1990s and doesn’t appear to have been updated since the 1990s — is by far the most successful business of its kind. You show up at Craigslist and you leave with your concert tickets or your casual encounter or whatever you’re looking for. Even though the design isn’t that great and it isn’t that hard of an engineering problem, it was unbelievably successful . . . [Distribution] starts with a great product and all of the marketing or tricks in the world won’t help you push a rock uphill.” Step 2: give people tools to spread the word “Two things drove the vast majority of our signups today. The first was we created this incentive-referral program where if I tell you about Dropbox you get some extra storage and I get some extra storage, which gave us this kind of currency to work with and people were just doing it for its own sake. People weren’t even using the extra space. They were just referring their friends because they got points. We’d now call it a gamification mechanic, even though I’m not sure that word was even around back then.” Drew continues: “The other thing we did was create this idea of shared folders where if I’m working on a shared project at work or if I want to share photos with my family, then all these new users are brought into the fold just by using the product . . . Now there’s whole body of art and science on how to do that, how consumer internet companies grow, and how viral growth works, but these things were instrumental to how we got started.” Source: @ECorner (Jun 2012)

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?

  @EscambiaFLMan When I was in Florida, I had to escape in abusive relationship. Because of the 2019 DV scandal in Florida, there were no beds available or relocation funds. I had to find a place to stay on craigslist because I was stuck in complete Lawfare. I ended up in Hillsborough, staying with the daughter of an attorney and her boyfriend. I rented a bedroom. The other roommate rented the couch. The woman who was renting the apartment out was also doing OF with her boyfriend and getting food stamps and other benefits from the state. The boyfriend stole my car and drove under a red light camera. I was tracked down by an attorney and I had to pay $400 even though I wasn’t the one driving the car during the time in question. The crazy bipolar person renting out the apartment had plans to sell my dog and cat. She was also going to sell the girl renting the couch for $1200 and keep the money, considering it her rent. When they realized that we were not going to just allow ourselves to be abused in such a way, she started taking lightbulbs out of the lights and keeping the bathroom door locked so we could not use the restroom. I was forced to leave and take her with me. By then I had a UTI. And the only place to go was back to my ex-boyfriend‘s who abused me severely. I thought maybe if we went together things might be OK. They weren’t. My ex did what he always did and lied about me hitting him. He told my friend that if she ever told the truth about what happened that night he would find her. It’s a legitimate threat because he’s a realtor. He forced her to do things in return for having a roof over her head. I tried to save her. But I only brought her to another devil. I don’t know how I can ever forgive myself. All I can do is continue talking about the failure of the system where the police believed that they gave us a packet of information with a solution that will keep us safe. The packet was a false promise. I hope you run for office. We need honest people in the government. We need people who care about humanity. We need people who tell the truth. You are brave and I truly hope good things come your way.

  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.

  @MidlifeCrysis_ It still can’t be functionally equivalent at all. Consumer initiated transfers transfers work from a business standpoint or a legal stand point. If this were to happen, then Sony would be getting in the middle of sale disputes between random people. Bob down the street could agree to trade games with his neighbor Steven. Then go to initiate the transfer from Sony (or do it themselves if you think that would happen). Then the key gets transferred and what happened? Steven didn’t pay Bob!! Who would they have to go to fix this or dispute it? Sony! This is just one instance. Multiply that by millions. You have to think about the big picture. Companies aren’t going to put themselves out there to be legally liable for crackheads selling video game licenses on Craigslist.

  @NickPocheVOTE Reminds me of the H St Streetcar. My first landlord in DC pitched the streetcar in the Craigslist ad (!!!) in 2009. I moved to Boston for a year in 2011 & back in 2013 and it still didn’t open for another three years. And then shut down for good 10 years after that…

  I used to own a recording studio. So I've watched this movie before. Around 2010 everyone and their grandma bought an Mbox, a $40 condenser mic, and a cracked copy of Pro Tools. Suddenly they were "audio engineers" charging $5 per mix and master on Craigslist. Recording artists in untreated bedrooms with foam taped to the walls. People flocked to them because it was cheap and fast. The music sounded terrible but it was "out there" and that's all that mattered to them in the moment. It nearly destroyed the mixing industry. Studios that invested in real equipment, real acoustics, and real skill couldn't compete on price with someone working off a laptop on their bed. But eventually the market corrected. The bedroom engineers disappeared. The artists who wanted quality came back. The studios that survived were the ones that never lowered their standard to compete with the bottom. That's exactly what's happening in the research supply space right now. Vendors popping up overnight with no testing, no infrastructure, no compliance. Just a Telegram channel and the cheapest price. And people are flocking to them for the same reason. It's cheap and it's fast. But cheap and untested doesn't last. It never has. In any industry. The vendors who test properly, build real infrastructure, and treat this like a business will still be here when the dust settles. The $5 mix and masters won't. #Tuesday #Peptides #Music
