Im not looking for implementing such services but i can use my skills and talent to low the barrier for others. Generally investing in currency per se, Fiat or crypto has been for past 200 years the tool for scam architectures. Don’t believe the hype.

What got me interested in blockchains? It was food delivery services. I disgrace Finnish food delivery service Wolt and how they ”Cosa Nostra” restaurants and enslave the drivers. I hope they burn in hell. So i realized year ago that only known algorithm to take away the middleman is a blockchain. Not by burning cycles and destroying the planet but by having distributed book keeper based on stake. I compared the existing smart contracts and with my evaluation Polkadot has the right core arch.

So I did off-by-one with the week with my flights. I'm flying today Berlin and coming back next Friday to Finland. So week #1 on-site.

That means also that I get my contracts ready one week faster, and I can get back in sync with LKML one week faster too.

So... let's adapt to the situation :-) Now have to run to the airport.

Hmm... A gym at Berlin in the Kreuzberg area? I neither Zumba or anything physical jerks activity. Just weights and like one-time fee style [and there is a person to pay this too, you never know what to expect these days]

It's not an issue if there is some group exercise type of stuff but sometimes that will map having to queue and loosing motivation or the gear feels like shit. So with that condition that will work too.

@pcwizz If they want wet ink, I will bring them wet ink. I don't mind not questioning that. And since I have no idea there could be also legit reason too so neither going to slander it :D Ignorance is a bliss. #lemmingshack

@pcwizz So they wanted wet ink. I supplied scans.

I don't know why exactly but I don't I have time to figure and debate everything :-) I.e. i get your question 100% but I focus on debates that matter. Also, since I have my plane tickets I'm already adapted to this :-)

Good point anyway. Dunno :D

No luck with sending a letter to #Germany but going to #Berlin to deliver my letter containing ~30 A4's of various contract papers.

I'll spend there almost a week from 29th to 4th. I thought that it's good to not cut with traveling the very first week. I.e. that is the week when I trash my laptop and week 2 is the week fix it up :-)

Now off to the UPS Access Point (this was the corporate UPS, not the wet consumer UPS).

I don't mind going to Berlin so I guess "Finnish honesty" and 'German accuracy" delivered.

All my fixes in progress or landing them to rc2 might be postponed to rc3. There was one keyring (by someone from Huawei) and one TPM (by me). I don't care to check them now as I need to do Fedora reinstall.

For next week I cannot commit much promises, as it is my first work week and I need to also fly to Berlin for quick visit. I might check over next weekend, or then I just get drunk or eat döner. Perhaps I multitask dunno yet.

Eventually all will be addresses and landed v6.12. WIth a single rc delay. I might also send one patch that makes boot-time tracing just a bit more robust for CI style testing (with RFC task).

PS. If you want to blame someone, send your complaints to the Finnish Post Office, German Post Office and UPS ;-)

I checked corp DHL offer for 6 times per year delivery. It's way beyond I want to pay. My expectation ATM is one delivery total and it costs ways more than flying to Berlin and back.

I think that we can safely say that consumer versions of parcel delivery services have a single application when sending: a return package. For anything: don't do it.

Priority letter with tracking code failed for the first time ever (in the EU region) but there goes the trust, and I burned 30 EUR for nothing. It is tuition cost, don't mind but also the very last letter that I'm going to sen through post office.

Not much of a choice. I just fly to Berlin. It's 3x priority letter, guaranteed delivery, cheap quality beer and Döner. I can accept this outcome ;-)

@NetworkManager Berlin is neither too bad so good excuse to go there, meetup, get drunk and head back ;-)

I don't get tho the renting business there for apartments. Not uncommonly you have to bring your own kitchen when you move. Yes. Never lived there, heard from friend living there. Dunno if this is standard in Germany 🤷

Yep, and Adam studio monitor speakers are great if you're not rich enough to buy Amphion's https://amphion.fi/ [which are best there is IMHO, including Genelec's for my taste, both companies actually like neighboring municipalities in North Karelia, Finland. I.e. middle of nowhere. High tech from the woods].

@NetworkManager No that 30EUR thing was a priority letter with tracking code :-)

At UPS Access Point I took immediate U-turn because I like mail dry, not boys wetting it :-) I believe my employer shares my view on this (did not ask tho).

I want to remember this later on so now it is documented :-) Not pissed at all, I'm used to hmm... anything? ;-) Maybe I should try to sell my scripts to Mike. He does not have to know that it is documented reality...

I might fly to Berlin next week because post office lost my wet ink contract.

There was 2x successful delivery in the priority mail that originally sent, which can only happen, if you have found ways bend the space time continuum in a way not known to the current laws of physics.

See for yourself:

Successfully delivered. Twice. I know Berlin is weird but I did not know that it is quantum weird 🍄 And this was with priority letter that cost almost 30 EUR. Yeah.

I neither have much trust to courier companies, unless you are multi-billion corporate customer (like Intel, Google and similar size company). E.g. corporate DHL is totally different story than consumer DHL.

I went to UPS Access Point yesterday, and the dealer said literally that you should reconsider because your contract might get wet (it was raining). I asked WTF are you talking about. "Boys sometimes might forget them outside for a while so they might get wet."

"UPS - We wet your mail"

This is literally true - according to UPS. How I ended up to this awful sitcom 🤷 I'm a Mike Judge fan (Beavis and Butt-Head, Silicon Valley, Tales from the Tour Bus etc.) but do not want live inside his script for God's sake.

So yeah. Better to just pay for plane tickets, say hi to some friends and hand over the wet ink (*not* wet contract) by myself. I might be weird not crack smoking and glue sniffing weird like these delivery services 🤖

It's less than 200 EUR to get Berlin and back. I like the place, and I do like also Döner so better to start looking for tickets :-) Optimal would late next week but have to check also with people I need to meet etc. :-)

Not even pissed. Post and courier services fucking up consumers is a universal standard. Keeping your letters wet... Just had to write this down because this is beyond mental 🙂
