I hate that it’s getting pretty hard to ignore these numbers any longer …

I think we ALL know or realize that our data, and recipes ARE being scraped off or ELR, and have been for some time. No one here (I don’t think) has any real misconceived notions of privacy, but, when someone ELSE is trying to turn a profit off of that, then I start to have a problem. Now MAYBE some NEW information will come to light, but as it stands, it doesn’t look good.
Thanks out to @Psycho_316 for shedding light on this situation. It also appears as if this “business” was being formulated, and discussed here on ELR previously.
I wonder how much Lars will be getting compensated for sales of his recipe ?

I regularly watch a channel called TNOTPR where he mixes recipes that are on the web thingy and critiques them. I find his channel informative and the bloke himself very likable. In fact I think he tried one of @SessionDrummer recipes once.
Recently he got scammed by this mob (I think) and gave them a shout out thinking the original creator was getting a percentage of any sales.
Subsequently he put another quick video up explaining that he was duped and to ignore his previous comments as this business was out of order. I felt sorry for the bloke as it was clearly obvious that he was truly annoyed and upset to have been conned like that.
I admire his honesty but not the company concerned.

I don’t think he had it up for long before removing it as he didn’t want to dwell on it. He did mention it in a review he did just after on a juice called Corpse Flower (lovely name) I think.

Well the good news is my fuel mileage has improved now that winter is over. I was averaging 13 and change when running it in auto AWD…
The bad news is I got F-ing broadsided by a deer on the passenger side, not too bad but damage to both doors,
waiting for the insurance adjuster to inspect it….

just woke up, slept all day but found out someone has spent over 600 dollars on a gambling site using my credit card… So I’m changing all the passwords and waiting 10+ minutes so far to call my bank…

I hate having no one. My mother lives a town away, I used to have a nurse that would come see me once a week and that’s no longer a thing. The new people were requiring money in order to get assistance. I’m constantly sick, I have a bipap and sleep on average multiple times totalling 4 hours average, I have over 600 dollars in charges with my credit card and the company in question doesn’t know about it, the bank claims it from them and they’re investigating it as my last transaction was over a month ago according to them. Amazon just mysteriously can’t deliver things necessary for hydroponics gardening. Seeds, Nutrients and Hydroponics. Their refund policy is 3-5 days but 2+ weeks to issue a refund, so that’s great. My single kidney isn’t functionining properly and I might need dialysis now and that would require me to take a 40 dollar cab ride every fucking time I have to go (assuming I need more). My brother hasn’t talked to me in over 2 months and doesn’t answer texts or phone calls. Democracy is dead, we’re going to have a food shortage, it’s all manufactured and life is pretty awful
And I’m not looking for sympathy I just don’t talk to other people.

Sorry you’re experiencig this @anon44012888. I hope it gets better for you. Have you thought of joining or starting a support group to help deal with it all? Something you can do in person, even with strangers can help with the mental stress and who knows, maybe there are people who can help with some of the physical things that you’re missing. You never know who you might meet. Just a thought.

What do you need? Lights should be easy to find on Amazon. Liquid nutrients you can search Scott’s. They bought out most of the smaller guys. PH chemicals Scott’s again. Amazon will have the test meter. Heavy duty storage bins to mix the water and chemicals in. Pumps are the same as the kind used in the garden ponds. Again Amazon.

Amazon. One of the biggest companies in the world and you have to hound them for a refund, in 3-5 business days I’ll get a refund for the 3 items that were mysteriously undeliverable from 3 separate locations (all hydroponics for home garden btw)… It should’ve been issued 12 days ago.
I know amazon is cheap, but we’re in for a pretty big ride so if you can afford to pay a little more or go out of your way, try to keep the small businesses afloat. We’re going to need to help each other out in the upcoming months.

Your playing it all wrong with Amazon. If the product is undeliverable in promised time they will refund your money and get you the products. I would be on the phone with CS and find out why this didn’t happen.

I think, just guessing here, it’s because there’s a manufactured food shortage coming and that’s something that might sustain a person? Over 20+ food distribution centers in the US have had either explosions and fires, 2 had planes crash into them… I mean, it’s pretty obvious what’s going on.
