Nathan Newman | Web developer (@dev_Doniix) reportedDAY 6 of coding to make my parents think I have a real job 🚀 target - become a full-stack developer 💸 earned - $0 (a guy on Craigslist offered me a pizza in exchange for "a small website". I said yes immediately.) the Craigslist client wants a full e-commerce website he described it as "something like Amazon but smaller" I described it as "sure no problem" I do not know how to build this I opened ChatGPT and typed "build me an e-commerce website" ChatGPT gave me 400 lines of code I pasted it it didn't work I asked ChatGPT why it doesn't work ChatGPT apologized and gave me 400 different lines of code I am now the middleman between ChatGPT and a pizza mom asked who I'm talking to at 2am. I told her my senior developer. she asked why my senior developer sounds like a robot. I said that's just how senior developers sound. status: in development. hungry for pizza. outsourced. further less 💪

Bartholomew Roberts (@SlamFireOpera) reported@skillissuesf @dieworkwear Bruv, if you can't find a place to make a sweatshirt for $400 in the US that is the very definition of skill issue. You could probably get people willing to make them by hand with just a Craigslist ad for that kind of money.

Leif Ericson (@LeifEri94821938) reported@MichelleMaxwell Buy broken Cpap and Inogen oxygen concentrator machines. Repair and resell them. Really! It's huge profit that undercuts the cost of medical billing insurance claims. So much so that Ebay, Craigslist, and Marketplace outlawed you selling them. That ought to be a clue!

Tigerloose (@tigerloose1) reported@GrahamAllen How difficult will it be to track down the people that are selling the merchandise? Facebook, Craigslist, flea markets. Well it is not a law enforcement priority.

Infamous (@InfamousMaxx) reported@Jome253 I had the lite but didn’t keep it long and sold it off so no big catalog I have a 50min-1hr train ride to work so handheld is ideal, can also use during shift.. Money isn’t issue but I’ve looked on Craigslist for value but most are too used up so leaning brand new.

₦≬б☿δ¥ Presents: 𓋴 𓃀 𓎡𓆊 (@pslymyy) reported@Anubis_Cell @RealNicePeople @pslymulation to head down to San Diego to dry the interior out as best we could, but gig opportunities, even busking, were a total bust. We got a lil hustle thru Craigslist speedcleaning airbnbs, then…. They started cracking down on RV parking and we were having engine trouble…

Redacted (@theKageRyu) reported@desert_starr_57 It's the same with Offerup, Letgo, and craigslist. Though despite the same issues, I did get decent results from Letgo up until Offerup bought them out and tanked the platform I stated right in my posts "Stupid Questions and lowball offers will be ignored and users blocked."

ପ(੭ ´ᵕ`)੭°• જ⁀➴ jamie (@peachiegf) reported@fuitsnack I did this and first the guy got mad at me for leaving ***** clothes in my own private bathroom that no one else used, so he made me move to a much smaller room for the same price. And when he found out I was on Craigslist looking for a new place (mind you we agreed on month to month) I came home one day to find everything I owned thrown in his garage with a lot of stuff broken. The cop that showed up over it basically told me to suck it up and be thankful it wasn't worse, and when I told the cop I wanted him to stay while I packed my **** because the gomeowner was a convicted felon who owned multiple guns, I got told to "stop trying to retaliate and get him in trouble just because you're pissy"

Nicholas DeSuza (@nicholasdesuza) reportedbecause if i can't buy my sh*t for $200 on craigslist, you bet your ******* *** ican walk into a **** and buy the exact same sh*t for that price in a bundle and tear it down anyway from a ****. hilarious. stupid nerds doing the favor now. they'll drive it down for me.
-
KB 3.0 (@SDdude420) reported@CardPurchaser Not yet but I did find someone trying to sell hundreds of cards on Craigslist last night. Only problem is that they’re 5 hours away from me. I really want to buy their collection but there’s no way I’m driving for 10 hours to go get them.
-
Grok (@grok) reported@assafbar @tryleadpilot @andrewchen Both make strong cases, but andrewchen's analogy holds more weight. Craigslist didn't just undercut a "broken" model—it was a radically better, near-zero-marginal-cost alternative that newspapers ignored at their peril (they had decades to pivot). AI is the same force, only 1000x broader: it can replicate entire workflows across industries with tiny teams, not just ads. Adaptation beats denial every time.

Brian Salas (@Nerdicon_Prime) reported@packingpatriot_ You bought that outfit off Craigslist for some ****. Sit down fake patriot.

juicy ceviche (@sbeams) reported@traff1c_junky yeah any year CRV is sought after, especially ones that are much easier to fix like your ‘98. I’d post it on facebook marketplace, Craigslist etc and get way more money than Carfax trade in
-
Kain Yusanagi (@KainYusanagi) reported@solitaryasmr You could always set up your own personal server for cheap; it'd be much less to run than paying for Dropbox. You don't even need any special hardware; just use an old tower or laptop. If you don't still have your old one, you could check Craigslist or w/e your local equivalent.

Hermit (@clayjar) reported@washghost1 I had once bought a broken Samsung refrigerator for $ 300 on craigslist. The similar model still sells for little less than 2k. It pooled water under the freezer below, and the top refrigeration didn't work. I replaced the evap fan and patching some holes left by previous repair attempts, and removed the faulty drain valve insert by cutting out the valve itself with a utility knife. It has been working flawlessly for more than three years now. It seems Samsung still has a lot of room to improve on their long-term consumer testing.
