Techdad Discussion

yeah if you are making a set # of items and demand goes up, either you scale production or increase prices.

the alternative is to do what supreme does and just let there be a massive resale market. by increasing retail pricing though, acronym captures the effective price difference instead of resellers

Are those 3a3ts's on granules really selling for a grand? Asking for a friend who wants a new bike....

[griffin]

seems like it, fucked up but true. i bought a 3a-3ts for 300 on grilled in 2015. interesting to see that there are several knock off/acronym "inspired" home job 3a bags listed which you didn't see a few years ago.

Acronym Jacket
olive drab jeep stroller
and a noguchi coffee table

pure essence of techdad

somebody watch devs & report back

[alby]

i watched it. it's good. heady and pretentious at points but doesn't feel like a kick in the nuts like westworld feels. feels like a good contained story 8.5/10 its cool

[bels]

are there any stairwells involved

[kickingthefly]

i randomly re-read this hito steyerl essay from 2008 or so, about the humble import of degraded jpegs as the drones of the still-nascent attention economy (reminds me of the bootleg chris marker dvds i used to get under the counter at broadway market, or i guess even the chinese guys selling bootleg hollywood blockbusters in the takeway shops on mare street)

was wondering if this paradigm has any relevance or echoes now- maybe in fashion terms, vachement or something
