Jackpotting. This is the term for hacking an ATM. Remember years ago I predicted the first billion dollar heist would use the electronic system? Right now, there are several methods, but the one that’s got my attention is based on another of my predictions. The Arduino. It can mimic the ATMs internal computer—and I’ll bet you that code is, guess what, a C+ derivative. The thief is targetting the fastest ATMs, made by Diebold Nixdorf, which can spit out its full rack of $100 bills in less than 25 seconds. Not a bad year’s work, around $40,000 in a wink. Here’s a preview of my shopping trip, this is a package of 1,250 T-50 staples from Wal*Mart for $2.47,. A package, of 1,000 at Lowe’s is $11.75. That’s six times more per staple at the hardware store.
The month is 2/3rds over so let’s see what I’ve got in petty cash. No, not an ATM display, but right here on my own books. I have $544.33. I’m making a $200 withdrawal on Thursday. This is not the account used for the household. I’ve withdrawn $411.88 from that account for shed building materials this month. Let’s see what’s in reserve. Gulp, I cannot tell you that, but I know my balance to the penny. But I have over $900 in transit that I cannot find out if the money orders have been cashed, keep reading.
Since
the first layer of tarpaper is up and the shed does not leak, I’m
heading to Winter Haven for shopping, hop in, it’s a nice trip.
But once I got there, it was drop-out retard day. I’ll give only
one example, but they are everywhere. I stopped at the 7/11 to check
if my money orders from June had been processed. The instant the fat
Mexican broad came out of the office, I knew the bitch was going to
waste my time. You only have to lay eyes on those kind of people.
She takes the money order receipt and starts reading it. After a
while I asked her what she is doing. She’s looking to see how much
it is for and who it is payable to. I said, whoa ma’am, you don’t
need that information. Just look up the number and tell me if the
item has cleared.
She
doesn’t know if they can do that, whoa ma’am, I know you can
because that is how money orders work. I said to her if you don’t
know what you are doing, say so. She finally goes up to the machine
and stands there beep-boop-beep, finally I said, whoa ma’am what
are you doing? She says checking, I said well you’ve already
pushed about fifty buttons more than necessary. I repeat, if you do
not know what you are doing, just say so. She says these are new
machines. I said no they are not, that machine has been here at
least six weeks. Finally, she admits she doesn’t know what she is
doing. You
have to call the office number on the back. Before I walked out I
informed her the reason I come in to the store is because the people
who answer the phones at the office are even worse than she is for
not knowing their jobs. I think you have a good idea of how I suffer
fools. All she had to say is she did not have a friggen clue what
she was doing and I would have gone to the next 7/11 and got there
ten precious minutes earlier. <i>[Author’s
note: let’s be clear here, I am not ragging on the lady because
she was “Mexican”, but that she wasted my time. I’ve spent
long enough in foreign countries to know what counts and what does
not. I gave her a quick and early opportunity to just admit she
didn’t know. My long-term blog readers know that I’ve had a lot
to say about the Latino macho bullshit that they would rather lie
than admit they don’t know. But I allowed for that sensitivity in
my approach and this broad still wasted my time. You
know what is weird? These people come over here and don’t
assimilate. Successful Americans quickly learn to bypass and get
around these useless deadweights, and it has nothing to do with race
or culture. It takes maybe five minutes to learn that wasting other
people’s time is not such a great idea in America, yet they go on
year after year. They pull little stunts like this all day long. In
the process, they exclude themselves from most of the good things
about America. It’s now wonder the bastards are marching in the
streets wailing about how they’ve got nothing and whites have
everything. If,
by coincidence or whatever, the dividing line seems to some to be
split along ethnic lines, it isn’t. The whites who don’t learn
the rules are materially just as bad off. But, being the wrong
“ethnic”, they can’t so easily blame others by converting to
leftism and screaming “racism”.]</i> For
those of you that trust the mainstream media, the Chicago Tribune
just announced the three severest critics of Democrat left-wing
tactics with the largest followings have just been named in a sexual
harassment suit. It’s the typecast hotel room and handcuffs
encounter by some ten-twenty year out of date innocent, unsuspecting
virgin.. These anti-left media hosts must be brought down by any
means necessary. And her timing, poll-wise, is perfect. What’s
that smell?
Blue wildebeest.

The birds have still not adapted to the bird cage feeder. They will land on it an look at the seeds, but won’t enter. That solution continues to be trial and error. Same with the new perch. At first it was popular, but too low to see from inside the kitchen. I raised it just 4” and they ignore it. The radish plants are healthy and the beets are just beginning to sprout, almost a week early. I have the camo paint for the tarpaper, it actually works by being highly “unreflective”, I’ll let you look that one up. They’ve discover fish that can actually absorb light, an interesting biological version of the blackest chemical paint.
From the records, that same roll of wiring when I began the electrical in Dec. 2017 was $28 per roll. Today it is $44. But I’m almost done, and silver has cracked the $20 ceiling, around a half-hour ago it was trading $21.18. Go, silver, I need important stuff and I’m tired of waiting. Anyway, expect progress reports because the wiring will now take place in the shade. Later I mean, it is still over 85°F in the shade today. By mid afternoon, Forex income this week is 4.200%, not bad. I’ve noticed the correlation between certain graphics and a surge in trade notification. Beats checking the computer as often as possible.
F ollowing closely after, as soon as it cooled a bit, I was up on the roof rolling out tarpaper. My roofs never leak thanks to my habit of putting two layers of tarpaper. Hey, for $20 bucks, do it proper. Scout around here for a video of the process, it means I decided to upload some scenery destined mostly for Tennessee.
Agt. R has a chance to begin redeeming himself. That would be this Thursday, a firm commitment to help me cut the tree limbs.
