Grok (@grok) reported@myers_jose49410 @zipfan2005 @drehkicks This video captures a super awkward door interaction: A guy shows up claiming he bought a MacBook on Kleinanzeigen (German Craigslist) and is here to pick it up at this address. The resident has no clue, denies it, suggests maybe wrong city (Berlin?), and they exchange polite goodbyes while the camera guy leaves embarrassed down the stairs. Pure secondhand cringe gold—that's why it "******" the poster's sleep.

EBE 1 (@coloradan29) reported@Osinttechnical @HaroldWren22 @vantortech Has a single tomcat even taken to the air since this kicked off? I feel like they were so down bad for used parts on craigslist that they were probably incapable of flight at this point.

Hurricane Ben (@lukane89) reported@swanlake322562 @DAKKADAKKA1 bought cars consoles furniture and tvs on craigslist no problem, just gotta use common sense if a price is too good to be true there's a reason..Also the structure of the ad is very telling. If the person can barely put together a proper sentence stay away

Krelian (@PoliticianRGay) reported@SecondAmendment @Fat_Electrician I kept running through dryers, used fancy **** on craigslist. I went to home depot, bought the one with two dials and a button for $500 and haven't looked back. Oddly enough the only thing that has broken is the one thing it has, a dial. I had to order a new plastic dial for $8.

lala ✨ (@LakeShowLala) reportedWhen I was 19 I moved to California with someone off Craigslist because the @lakers were down 0-3 to Dallas in the western conference finals and I was certain if I touched LA ground they would come back. (They didn’t)

Joe Edgar (@Joe_Edgar_) reported from City of Sunset Valley, Texas@a16z @aleximm @santiago__rdz Depends on bus model. SAAS is likely done. Software's 1st wave replaced spreadsheets (help find problem - SAAS) 2nd wave replace Craiglist (connect to someone who can solve problem - sub. fee) 3rd will be solving the problem So software is a commodity, but the rails of which each company builds for agents will become differentiators and will warrant much larger revenue streams.

Patrick C. Delaney (@PatrickCDelaney) reported@AngelMD1103 I had this same problem with Craigslist giving away free stuff. Can you help me take it downstairs? No, it’s free stupid

Cosmic Nuisance (@cosmicNuisane8) reported@0xInk_ That slop looks like Gypsy Danger from Craigslist, and the "transformation" is just parts awkwardly appearing out of thin air. These problems could be fixed if you didn't need a ******* clanker to do the hard work for you.

MrPP (@realMrPP) reported@yoxics I got in trouble for asking for a male roommate on craigslist, that's how serious they take discrimination laws.

Brian Christian (@BCVT88) reported@PalmerDesigns_ Ice fishing is actually pretty fun, bought a cheap snowmobile off Craigslist for the kids and we still spend time outside. Can’t just shut it down and stay inside gotta be a little more willing to get out. Throw on some snow shoes and try hiking, it’s actually not that bad

Robert Van Dusen (@RealRVanDusen) reportedCraigslist is terrible for trying to find an apartment, imo. The same property manager must have taken out about fifty or more ads in one area where I was looking. Also, just as a general rule, nobody seems to update the availability on any website, so you never know what's open.

Abomination (@Abomination81) reported@SSB_Rick Quit playing video games, quit drinking. How I started making money, that would work today. Found couches on facebook/craigslist for sale. Negotiated them down to almost free. Took them home, cleaned them, took good pictures and posted them for sale with free delivery = 3,500 a month. Yard sales on weekends. Got there at open. Use ebay, click the search for "recently sold items". Look for old video games, sports stuff, action figures... anything. Search for the real value. Offer pennies on the dollar =2,500 month Flipping items I found at Ross, Costco, Walmart, Berlington, Target etc. Look for clearance items. Same as the yard sale. Flipped those items for about =1,000 a month Get an amazon sellers account. Look for items at stores to resell on amazon. Bought Millenial monopoly for 10 dollars at walmart, sold it for 50 on amazon. Rinse and repeat. This replaced the flipping items above, jumped to 5000 a month. Quit wasting your time. The money is sitting there, go work your *** off. **** your video games. **** your alcohol. **** X. **** sports. **** everyone except your kids. You got this man. You can dm me if you want specifics with any of this.

ludwig (@ludwigABAP) reportedwhatever specs that would sell for 400-500usd max, as this is to unfortunately torture it in incomprehensible ways so I dont wanna buy anything too specced out fb marketplace and craigslist are barren unless I wanna go back down to Palo Alto

Shobit Gupta (@shobitfarcast) reportedEveryone talks about Airbnb's Craigslist hack. The real lesson is the opposite of a hack. They flew to meet 24 users. They knocked on doors. They took photos themselves. The founders who find product-market fit fastest are the ones willing to do unscalable things until they understand exactly what's broken. Scale the insight. Not the hustle.

Possum Patriot🌸🍳 (@PossumPatriot) reported@sarahlol1863603 @Howlingmutant0 This reminds me there used to be these craigslist ads in an area I used to live of some old geezer looking for someone to "come find me in my house already lubed up presenting my ***" etc etc. Then they took down craigslist personals.
