Peter of England and WeaRe not a Bank

[longdog]

Despite being an American, I'm almost positive that one of the things I learned during my stay in England was that your famous government address (aside from the palaces and castles) was #10 Downing Street. I'm sure I walked by and visited it in Whitehall once. But what is this 11 Downing Street, aside from the flat across the street?

Pedantic note: #10 and #11 Downing Street are next to each other. Odd and even numbers being on opposite sides of the street is an American practice.

Really? Every street I've ever lived in has been odd one side and even on the other with the exception of one street which only had houses on one side.

[FatGambit]

Yeah I was going to say that's not exclusive to America.

[letissier14]

As an ex postman of over 10 years, I can reliably inform you that the vast majority of streets in the UK have odd numbers on one side of the street, and even numbers on the other side of the street.

Hence the expression "668... The next-door neighbour of the beast".

[Footloose52]

I'm on a newish development, numbers run in sequence so number 11 is between number 12 and number 14 (no number 13).

When I lived on an older development number 12 was opposite number 11 etc.

New developments are usually planned out without room for additional houses whereas back in the day roads were often built piecemeal by different builders over decades and anything other than odd one side and even the other would mean renumbering all of the houses every time they built a new one.

I've seen it in UK too, I don't think it's unheard of here.

So.......I'm working on a customer's machine today. I remove a bolt and what do I see as the logo for the hardware manufacturer on the head of the bolt?




Clearly there isn't anything this clown won't steal.

[exiledscouser]

Excellent find Chaos. The design combines the elements of the letters forming the word Peter. The narcissistic Mr. Smith would have his in joke at his marks' expense.

This bolt seems to be largely shot now. Website down for 'maintenance', off the dial and irregular FB posts, alienated tutonic followers. Only fools and the deluded hang on his coat tails now.

"Apart from that everything is perfect."

Peter of England: The website is still suffering and is down due to OVH London global server problems. In addition we have a card launch scheduled for today - this is MOST inconvenient. With no website available then I have had to post the most basic of videos on YouTube. i have several others BUT there is no point making them PUBLIC as we have no application form available due to the website being down. Apart from that everythings perfect.

More fabricated reasons why you can't deliver ANYTHING you promise, Peter? Quel surprise.

To his credit though, he HAS been hard at work making a woo machine:

"Within 21 days we should have these cards and terminals available for all of you"

This raises the question: how much extra is he going to charge for the terminals, and are the marks supposed to do with them? I would have thought it's Peter's duty to get these things into stores, but I have the creeping suspicion that he's going to beseech his suckers to do the donkey work under the guise of ReVolution.

Cue idiots arguing with bemused checkout staff at Aldi on why they need to install this special machine. Oy vey.

Where is the Elephant )

Aside from the elephant in the video, here's another elephant that Peter might like to consider:

... how much extra is he going to charge for the terminals, ...

On a currently unavailable page, Peter said terminals are available to retailers for £1 or 0.5Re per day.

PS Can someone teach Peter how to focus his camera?

Well the great thing about Re is that as it is a unit of universal energy you can earn Re by going about your normal work. So all a retailer need do is sell stuff and the Re will magically appear in their account and then that can pay off the rental of the terminal

don't know why he'd need to accept 'toxic' currency when the energy required for just unlocking the door and turning the lights on at a retail establishment has to easily equal .5 re

[afateworsethandeath]

Mmm. Can't see retailers busting a gut to get the terminals in to accept a currency that nobody is using

... and pay for the privilege

[exiledscouser]

The FB comments (whilst they last) are truly hilarious. One poster asks "so what can I pay for?" (with the card).

As he and all the other delusional Weary bankers will discover, sweet F all.

Mr Smith has gone to some lengths to set all this up. He clearly has some organisational skills and access to a certain amount of technical support although the latter will have been most likely sourced by that filthy toxic fiat stuff.

My question is and always has been - why? What will this achieve save another crashing failure? Why put all this time effort and resource into a doomed project?

The guy is beyond my understanding.
