jfw: lobbes: auctionbot down again [01:49]
lobbes: ty jfw [02:07]
BingoBoingo: jfw: Do let me know if you have any questions about Uruguay logistics or the hardware in the pile [02:08]
jfw: BingoBoingo: know the depth of the SMG servers? (my present bags should just fit 26") [02:11]
jfw: Thanks lobbes. Do I infer rightly that auctionbot's clock is ~6h fast but its display of time remaining is correct? [02:14]
lobbes: jfw: your inference is right on both points [02:16]
lobbes: server is UTC timezone, iirc [02:17]
BingoBoingo: jfw: The deeper of the 2 (testing) is right at 26" The other, production, is 24" This is without the ears, drive caddies, or power supplies installed. [02:21]
jfw: perfect [02:22]
BingoBoingo: The rails, if you want them, are presently longer, but may be able to shorten up for travel. Going back to Panama, you probably want the rails. [02:23]
BingoBoingo: means non-destructively disassemble the rails when saying "shorten up" [02:24]
jfw: yes, or perhaps they could be shipped separately with less difficulty than the servers [02:25]
BingoBoingo: Logistics wise, the most helpful thing I can offer on the information you presented is that Copa's the only airline you should be considering given the city to city pairing. [02:25]
BingoBoingo: jfw: Yes, still a bit of weight. [02:25]
BingoBoingo: Tomorrow I'll make some time to open the rail bundle and see if they do. [02:26]

dorion: back at desk and proactively communicating I haven't heard from jfw yet, but he was up quite late. [14:09]
diana_coman: dorion: thanks for the update. [14:10]
diana_coman: will be back in ~1 hour [14:15]
jfw: I'm here, catching up. [14:55]
jfw: asciilifeform: ty, I'll comment there as requested once I figure out where I want 'em. Might also bid on the 2 sealed Piz FGs in your possession if they're put up for auction. [15:00]
asciilifeform: jfw: ty. and, that auction is already live and ends on fri. #1075, #1076. [15:03]
jfw: BingoBoingo, I'll follow up on logistics in a bit, def interested in your lodging recommendations. [15:04]
diana_coman: I'm back and I'll be around for the next couple of hours. [15:09]
jfw: waves [15:10]
dorion: jfw probably best to give an eta for when you expect to be ready for #t. it is evening in europe by now. [15:37]
jfw: 10 mins. [15:40]
jfw: ready, trying a self-voice. [15:52]
diana_coman: jfw: ok; let's see if MP is on anyway. [15:53]
whaack: diana_coman: I am considering again buying http://younghands.club/2019/11/03/wh-review-of-week-3-oct-28th-nov-4th/?b=selling&e=btc#select . I am also looking at some other cars. I'd like a car because it would greatly increase my freedom here, and I want to gain some driving experience (I have ~0 having lived in NYC/Boston for most of my life). But I know nothing about buying cars, so I ask humbly for advice first. [16:17]
diana_coman: whaack: the first thing if you know nothing about cars is that you should most probably buy a *new* car [16:19]
diana_coman: for all that it seems more expensive and that; your lack of knowledge means that you can't properly evaluate a used car so you can't properly speaking buy it [16:19]
diana_coman: that being said, those toyotas-in-cr have a rather poor reputation iirc; I suggest you go again and ask hanbot about this too since she is quite an experienced CR driver. [16:20]
whaack: diana_coman: alright I will ask her and look into the new car route. [16:22]
diana_coman: other than that, it does make sense to buy a car and start exploring too, sure, why not. [16:23]
whaack: diana_coman: mhm it would be nice to know some more than the pics on my blog and the road to the store, lol [16:27]
BingoBoingo: All I can really offer re: Latin Driving is beware of the Chinese cars [16:27]
diana_coman: whaack: you can always *rent* a car too, no/ [16:28]
diana_coman: ? [16:28]
diana_coman: I doubt it's terribly expensive [16:28]
BingoBoingo: Renting may be the way to get started as a very new driver. [16:29]
diana_coman: and hm, fwiw I actually got around during those 2 weeks in CR without driving myself (because I wanted a holiday and the driving I saw from locals didn't look all that conducive to calm). [16:30]
whaack: diana_coman: I believe I can rent, yes. The only trouble that I may run into is I only got my license last June and some places require you have had your license for a year or so. [16:31]
whaack: BingoBoingo: What's wrong with the Chinese cars? [16:33]
diana_coman: dorion: meant to check - did you see http://younghands.club/2019/11/04/rmd-week-1-plan-nov-4th-10th-2019/#comment-109 and http://younghands.club/2019/11/01/rmd-review-october-15th-november-1st-2019/#comment-110 ? I'm not sure how visible comments on older posts on yh are atm. [16:34]
diana_coman: whaack: heh; what's wrong with Chinese things-you-find-outside-china in general? [16:35]
dorion: whaack I recommend checking what the license requirements in CR are. In panama, one can legally drive with foreign drivers license for 3 months upon entry; after 3 months continuously in country, need a panamanian license. [16:35]
diana_coman: I suppose he would probably want to get the CR license anyway. [16:36]
BingoBoingo: whaack: From what I've seen the build quality isn't inspiring. The ones I've ridden seemed to have a prematurely aged ride quality, loud gearbox, and other faults. The ones I've seen wreck didn't seem to have much structure to them at all. [16:37]
whaack: diana_coman: I can guess they get sent out of the country cheaply for a reason lol [16:38]
whaack: dorion: Pretty sure it's the same here, ty though I will double check. [16:39]
diana_coman: and those importing stuff anyway pretty much look for the *cheapest*, myeah; so it will be what it usually is, mostly crap. [16:39]
BingoBoingo: has seen "Chery" cars with suspension components dragging. [16:39]
dorion: diana_coman I'm subscribed to younghands comments feed on feedbot and see not I somehow overlooked those. thank you for the ping, my apologies for the latency, digesting now. [16:39]
diana_coman: dorion: no rush. [16:41]
whaack: BingoBoingo: lol. diana_coman: alright I will be extra careful if I'm considering a used car. [16:52]
BingoBoingo: whaack: Hanbot is probably the best resource. Otherwise you can look at the local taxi fleets, see what they use and pay attention to the model years they drive, if everything is incredibly new... the potential for longevity may be lacking. Also, if you've got a handyman putting together your desk... avoid the "quirky" classics you may see in numbers. Down here the sir cooled VW Fusca is common. I've considered one, but... the [17:04]
BingoBoingo: maintenance isn't trivial. Gotta adjust valve spacing every oil change, etc. [17:04]
diana_coman: dorion: that's most likely your fly there. [17:27]
dorion: diana_coman hm ? where there ? I'm not hearing a buzz. [18:19]

ossabot: (trilema) 2019-11-12 mircea_popescu: it's not an idle question on my part. there's actually reflected in the very history of the republic as logged, the case of some dude showing up years later to push ridoinculous claims. look for grubbles sometime. [18:20]

jfw: trinque or others: I'm seeing the following strange behavior with deedbot, not sure if user error or what. I sent a !!received-invoices by PM, to see if MP's invoice had gone through. It returned a paste encrypted to an unknown key. I tried again after a couple minutes and it didn't respond. I have not made a deposit yet, perhaps that's [21:07]

jfw: the problem, but I'd like to confirm before sending coin. [21:07]
trinque: when did you register with deedbot [21:07]
jfw: a bit over a month ago [21:07]
jfw: (can check precisely if you'd like) [21:08]
jfw: ah, 2019-09-15, ~2 months ago. [21:09]

jfw: BingoBoingo: since I'm making the trip, I'd be interested to meet up for a chat at greater leisure than merely picking up the gear would entail. I expect you'll be pretty busy but would you be up for grabbing a coffee? [22:44]
BingoBoingo: jfw: That'll be fine. I can also do tours of the city. [22:45]
jfw: great, I'd love to explore it a bit too. [22:45]
BingoBoingo: If you promise not to evangelize, asciilifeform can speak to the tour guide credentials. [22:46]
jfw: Are there dates that will be better or worse for you, within the window of early December? [22:46]
BingoBoingo: December 6, 7, and 8 are ExpoCannabis. I'll be networking that weekend and working local contacts. [22:48]
BingoBoingo: I really recommend being in Uruguay on a Sunday for the tourism potential the Feria Tristan Narvaja presents. [22:50]
BingoBoingo: Also 6, 7, 8 you are probably too late or nearly too late to book a hostel bed if you were thinking about that. [22:51]
jfw: Do you know a well-located hostel (vis-a-vis lugging the gear) with private rooms + internet? That could be an option [22:53]
BingoBoingo: The Rambler Pocitos is the only hostel I'd recommend on this side of town. They have one private "double" room. That was rarely price competitive with the Punta Trouville hotel. [22:54]
BingoBoingo: So I just stayed in the barracks and made sure to book hotels for date nights. [22:55]
jfw: I don't need luxury but would just as soon not let inquiring minds get too curious what's in the big case... [22:56]
BingoBoingo: I never tried the "Regency Way" Hotel, but it is close though uphill. [22:57]
BingoBoingo: jfw: Punta Trouville isn't luxury, but it is clean. Rooms are the same size and layout as the local studio apartments. Good location. [22:57]
BingoBoingo: A bit of peaking at room rates suggests substantially lower prices than 2017-2018 high season. Probably because Argentina's economy shat the bed in the interim. [23:00]
jfw: perhaps Dec 14-16 is a good stay, I recall you wanted the gear out by the 15th [23:00]
BingoBoingo: jfw: That can work. asciilifeform has his ticket set for 13th through 17th iirc [23:01]
BingoBoingo: 7th through 9th can also work [23:02]
BingoBoingo: I'll just shake more hands on the 6th and 7th [23:03]
jfw: ah ok [23:03]
BingoBoingo: Anyways, December means you are about as likely to be surrounded by Portuguese as Spanish in most places. [23:06]
asciilifeform: BingoBoingo: 12-17, but lengthy wait in peru. [23:40]
asciilifeform: landing in the wee hours of dec 13. [23:42]
asciilifeform: http://logs.nosuchlabs.com/log/ossasepia/2019-11-13#1010082 << will confirm, BingoBoingo is a+++ guide. [23:42]
snsabot: Logged on 2019-11-13 02:40:39 BingoBoingo: If you promise not to evangelize, asciilifeform can speak to the tour guide credentials. [23:42]
jfw: I believe it. [23:43]
jfw: BingoBoingo: what would you suggest for local comms - can one buy a SIM at the airport? [23:52]
