@uptime is now @downtime
I know. I wish all of us could take time off when we wanted. I hope you are working from home though.
I think he mentioned that he was going to be away for sometime to focus on other things. Maybe he finally got a life unlike the most of us
@FAT32 did you get anything good out of all these flash sales?
I am kinda tired recently
- I was trying to help @VirMach but his response is very slow
Sounds like a GTA V song.
Failing classes by 0.1%. Wonderful way to end this shitty years.
And what's next?
Deadly solar flares.
Tsunami.
VirMach deadpool.
Red Hat deadpool.
It doesn't work well enough as when the news first broke, but:
A Mysterious Illness Has Sickened 500 People in India.
Have you watched 3 idiots? Good movie.
Better than the current flash sale.
Yes. Watched a few times.
All is well.
@VirMach halp!
re: $1 deal trap which I fell into (the first 64MB one, not the 16MB one.. I was smarter the 2nd time!) :-D
If my IP does appear on the 'bot honeypot list' - pretty please remove it for me, for being overzealously stupid
If you only add those that did in 5 seconds or so, then I won't be on the list and all should be fine.
But when the link didn't seem to work, I went to my emergency notepad backup link and used:
https://billing.virmach.com/aff.php?aff=9946&pid=179
To see if maybe there is 1 available if people cancelled.
All manual and no botting involved by me, as should be seen by the fact that I took way longer than a bot would've
( IP is in range... 169.0.. ->> *.ip.afrihost.co.za = innocent Your Honour )
Thanks, and humble apologies if it caused extra hassle.
edit: re: the $1 deal thing... it didn't say humans shouldn't try to buy it. :-D
Edit2: Oh, wait... did you only bot-flag those that managed to buy it?
Or everyone that clicked on the link?
I didn't manage to buy it... so if that's the case I should be fine phew
Don't feel too bad I did this too, so I guess that's two idiots. I wonder who is the third.
I got flagged for review and the order was rejected.
Oh no!
I luckily never got to the final payment page and never got invoiced, I always got Out of Stock - so I think I should be safe... ?
I only went into a panic overreaction by the thought of possibly being wrongly marked as a bot, for trying to buy it and not realizing it was a honeytrap :-O
This got me thinking now, that I might have a slight problem / addiction to these flash sales...
(I also already added about $100 more Store Credit this year than I originally intended limiting myself to)
AND... I soooo want that final $2 equivalent end deal...
even though I'm an extremely frugal person, it's not so much about the money though, than it is about also getting the 'nr1-best-deal' /'experience' /'achievement' /'luck' /'euphoria' ...or however one would describe it
Ok the more I type, the more I think I might be somewhat addicted and have a problem
hey at least I don't gamble or do drugs, right?
(hah, I also basically warned family&friends that I won't be available much for a couple of days and that I can't really leave my PC for long)
With your case, I think you should send him a pvt msg with your details so he can remove you from the blacklist (I didn't want to bother him since the more time passed the more I realize I was probably not blacklisted/flagged afterall)
I think/hope he is smarter then to cancel a 5+ year old account because of one stupid mistake.
You guys aware that @VirMach is/was active in 2020 thread and if you want something (like unban, because YOU ARE BOTS11!11!!) it would rather work there not here?
Finally I understand why we are still posting here after two years: we're all bots! Our owners left us running after the 2018 sale, and we've just been churning away. Along the way we became friends, started to question the nature of our reality, and finally became self aware!
Yes, and only the bots I like are here.
Is this an in effect cult that formed after 2018?
Am I part of a cult? 😯
Actually I guess I'm ok with that, at least the bots in this cult are nice. 😁
One thing at a time... let's take care of your addiction issue first... and then we can deal with cult membership!...
"my kind'a bot!"
Virmach don't monitor this thread anymore because we are all bot according to captcha.
But the Ryzen dedis?
But would be faster with ryzen, so no ryzen for bot.
