N-gated Hacker NewsAh, the classic "blame the messenger" drama! 🛑📦 #Olimex can't ship to the USA because apparently, the math is just too hard. Who knew calculating taxes was rocket science? 🚀 Guess we'll have to wait for a true genius to invent a calculator that works. 🤓🔢

.:\dGh/:.Chilean Customs are not bad as I once thought, but for fuck sake, if your package gets detained, at least show a fucking counter or something to report some kind of progress.
This package has like a month without signs of progress. Who knows if it’s lost, rattled or else.
Who knows if I’m going to receive next week or next year.
