    @noob404 said: I always thought the Location shown in the YABS is the location of the VPS. I guess I was wrong. :(

    The location is shown, but it's based on IP geolocation, which is sometimes wrong. And I know Racknerd doesn't have servers in Kentucky.

    Yah, that was the hint that broke my perception of YABS locations being the correct ones.

    Another lovely day, sipping coffee from my RackNerd mug and watching this thread! Can't wait to get a second one into my rotation!

    Hi @PuDLeZ -- now that’s a solid way to start the day! Love seeing that mug in action.

    Do you like your coffee black, by the way?

    It varies by my mood that morning. Sometimes I love it black, other times I don't. One thing is forsure though, I do love my coffe in the AM!

    Hi @PuDLeZ -- I hear ya, I’m the same way. Some mornings it’s straight black, other mornings I’m reaching for a splash of creamer or something sweeter. Just depends on the vibe that day.

    But one thing’s for sure, that AM coffee hits different when it’s in a RackNerd mug :)

    i only do creamer lately, amazon brand fat free creamer powder, cause it lasts longer, my fridge only goes down to 50F (and that's in winter).. but before i used to buy hazelnut liquid creamer and add as much of milk. so my coffee would be lukewarm when i drank it..

    Same. Fresh creamer always goes bad.

    It's alright. There will be more giveaways. Almost a month more for 22 Dec

    Great question! In short, yes. There are a few things going on here within this thread: main giveaway + engagement giveaway + random giveaways.

    Winners for the main giveaway will be announced on Dec/12 (that one is purely luck based, a single comment within this thread would make you eligible to possibly win). And on the other hand, winners for the engagement giveaway will be announced on Dec/22. That latter giveaway, is the one that you can actually control your chances of winning: https://lowendtalk.com/discussion/comment/4586006/#Comment_4586006

    Thanks... Fingers crossed then :)

    Infact, you are just 5 comments away from getting into the leaderboard (6th position).

    Still waiting for paypal to review my info

    hehe.. paypal reviewed my info back in 2009. haven't had a proper working paypal in my name since

    They once closed my business account. Was a mess to get it reinstated again.

    I've heard of many people/businesses having many issues with PayPal. Luckily, I haven't had any (yet). I actually only have it for the random orders/payments I do as I much rather use PayPal instead of my actual card details.

    Since credit cards aren't really used in the Netherlands, PayPal is like my only option to buy stuff online

    I do remember you mentioning this last year as well or something along the lines. Now, I am curious why no credit card popularity in NL?

    it's smart, without credit cards people will have less debt.

    That's a big plus also :)

    We're not accustomed buying things on credit. Sure, some people take out loans but little people dealing with CC debts.

    everyone should help little people with big debts.. it's uncanny

    Seconds that. And it's sometimes... It's not always people to blame you know. Some people just can't handle money.

    I do remember you mentioning this last year as well or something along the lines. Now, I am curious why no credit card popularity in NL?

    Mainly debit cards with the VPay/Maestro protocol are used. The grocery store I work at doesn't even accept credit cards. Like the payment machines don't even support it

    Wow that's odd and a fun fact I didn't know about. But, is there any reason why credit cards aren't used? Like are they looked down upon or anything due to their debts potential or something?

    Not sure how it's now but they were harder to get back in the day. Like they did a credit check.

    I remember just sending and receiving cashier checks when buying in the us lol.

    They still do in India. The irony though is there's no transparency in India on how credit score works. So, no one actually has a clear cut idea of how a person's credit score is calculated.

    I see. I'm not sure how it works here either but it ain't all bad probably unless you have a lot of debts.

    Exactly. I am just curious if NL government has taken active steps with that intention. If yes, kudos!

    in some countries govt cares for peoples monetary problems. in USA they just want you to be in debt as far as you can get in there.. you can get "credit card" from big retailers that can only be used in their stores. my wife with her shopping has several cards all maxed out. she was able to get some cause of my perfect credit history.. but she's very bad with money, very very very very very very very very very very very very very very bad..

    Lol, not really of course but, lol.

    oh.. i laugh about it quite often.. maniacally usually..

    Me on an average night out.

    also some countries are not developed well enough for credit stuff. it starts with stuff like mortgage and car buying credit, cause if you don't pay they can at least take it back.. with credit cards per-say you maybe using them for food, and eating it, so they can never get back that stuff, so they don't even let you start..

    Let me tell you a bit about India here. There are loan apps here that gets access to your photos and contacts on phone and dif you don't pay, they hire recollection agencies that morph and abuse your photos you never consented for use, to blackmail yout into paying.
    But, recently, Govt took steps to curb these apps and severely punish them.

    Man, that's fucked up. Glad the gov is taking action!

    Yup, at some point, these idiots sent morphes photos to a judge and such incidents where high profile people are affected got them trapped in their own nets.

    If it wasn't that bad it's make up for good comedy.

    Yah, they really FAFOed! I mean yes recollection agencies are know to be huge harassment everywhere in the world. But, these guys were lowest of the scum

    besides that you right, here in USA they actually sometimes buy off unpaid taxes debt from government, or maybe forced to buy, anyways - this is a type of debt they are not allowed to harass you about, they only send couple of letters and call once or twice.. and that's it.

    It's always a bad idea to get into debt with the government. It's not easy to get out of unless you go bankrupt.

    It's unfortunate to see your optimism take a hit. I guess my pessimism is contagious. But, at the end of the day, we do have the social butterfly. Fret not, brethren! :)

    yeah.. 3 more weeks is like a very very very very very very very long time away... if in the end someone decides they want it more than i do (my 2nd place) - i am not going to fight. AAMOF - i am just gonna do a few (dozen) posts a day, not gonna push it... yeah i will try to keep the next runner up far from me, but will not be doing it with much effort.. work it or not, if someone wants it more - they will find a way.

    Maybe that guy who buys all these server servers:)

    Man, that's fucked up. Glad the gov is taking action!

    Yup, at some point, these idiots sent morphes photos to a judge and such incidents where high profile people are affected got them trapped in their own nets.

    Yah, they really FAFOed! I mean yes recollection agencies are know to be huge harassment everywhere in the world. But, these guys were lowest of the scum

    besides that you right, here in USA they actually sometimes buy off unpaid taxes debt from government, or maybe forced to buy, anyways - this is a type of debt they are not allowed to harass you about, they only send couple of letters and call once or twice.. and that's it.

    Yah, asset reconstruction companies do that on a regular basis here as well. But, it's only the recollection agencies affiliated with these scummy loan apps in India that feel entitled to do whatever they feel like and they see to have this idea that they could operate with immunity regardless of how inhuman and criminal their tactics are

    a lot of those apps are associated with bad elements.. i heard about those in eastern europe, they just come after you with weapons..

    Same in the us no? Like, bountyhunters and shit? Or am I misinformed and watch TV too much :)

    That's awesome, more members for the squad and more competition for the lottery!

    after it goes over 100 to 1 chance, it doesn't even matter anymore how many people, - i do not succeed..

    It's unfortunate to see your optimism take a hit. I guess my pessimism is contagious. But, at the end of the day, we do have the social butterfly. Fret not, brethren! :)

    and it's not even that. i am naturally optimistic and happy, but when it comes to something i want - the only way for me is not to think about it, not to want it, not to think i got it already, because it spooks the luck. this is how i grew up, this is how i live my life. all that manifesting garbage was because i won the $10 from some provider that i can't even spent it there, 1 VPS there costs $7 per month, kidding me? but that kinda inspired me to think i may win or succed elsewhere.. i think i entered 20-25 BF giveaways in last few days. i guarantee i will get nothing from nobody.

    Have no despair my man.

    yeah.. 3 more weeks is like a very very very very very very very long time away... if in the end someone decides they want it more than i do (my 2nd place) - i am not going to fight. AAMOF - i am just gonna do a few (dozen) posts a day, not gonna push it... yeah i will try to keep the next runner up far from me, but will not be doing it with much effort.. work it or not, if someone wants it more - they will find a way.

    I don't wanna mistake this for patronizing. But, frankly you have a very good lead right now and if you keep this pace up and maybe a bit more, you can easily keep your position and even better it. So, don't worry too much.
    And, consider all this practice for hopefully the Xmas thread as well. I have already promised you that I won't be going for the top prizes in the pool on that thread given it does happen

    nah, i'll partake but will not be going for anything there. i tried. it takes a lot of time from watching tv, doing the work i like or need to, this is my only run. i'll stick around and maybe get one of the bottom prizes, cause it'll be much easier. i'm a very lazy person. i automate stuff, spend days and weeks and months sometimes on that, with only 1 simple reason - i wanna do nothing all day. although recently i am having long breaks from my other passion - consuming marijuana - which makes me very hyperactive.. so, well, who knows.. i consume mj to calm down. and i drink more when i am hyperactive.. no need for that..

    I understand. But, don't even think about the bottom prizes. You are already on 2nd position. So, maybe prioritise keeping that intact. I know you can

    Woot woot!
