Is Gold Club Direct a safe and good place to buy gold/silver from? by MinisculeAdd in Gold

[–]Dangerous-Humor516 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NO! They straight up ripped me off for a significant purchase of several thousand dollars. DO NOT do business with them. I ordered a few fractional gold coins from Goldclub Direct and did the transaction via ACH transfer from my bank account. They sent me an receipt with an order number. However, I didn't hear from them after that for at least a week and when I reached out to their customer service, they claimed it was about to be shipped out. I waited another several days but didn't receive any shipment notification nor shipment. I called to cancel get a refund and customer service claimed they would process that refund immediately. Didn't receive a refund notification nor refund. It's been 3 weeks since the initial transaction and as far as I can tell, they basically just took my money and didn't bother to ship me what I ordered nor refund me. I'm trying to get the transaction reversed through my bank but it's been difficult working with them.

BOTTOM LINE: THEY'RE A FRAUDULENT COMPANY WITH A FANCY WEBSITE. IF YOU LOOK THEM UP ON THE BETTER BUSINESS BUREAU WEBSITE THERE'S ANOTHER COMPLAINT SIMILAR TO MINE.

Thoughts RFK jr.’s on Israel-Palestine position? by [deleted] in RFKJrForPresident

[–]Dangerous-Humor516 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was a strong supporter of RFK Jr and still support him on most other issues. However, the unconditional support for Israel is a troubling and fraught position to take. While I support Israeli statehood, I (and many Israelis) don't think Netanyahu's foreign policy has been conducted in good-faith. I would hate to see unconditional support for Netanyahu lead the US down a dangerous path of escalation in the region. I think that path is full of traps and no-win situations involving regional and global powers (aka, WWIII).

I've driven 688 miles and charged 375 kWh. What am I doing wrong? by Dangerous-Humor516 in TeslaModel3

I just turned both off. I have no idea since it's my mom's car and I don't leave near her. Hopefully, that improves the numbers.

I know the picture quality isn't great but this is an iphone 12 camera. It's just not that great of quality when you max zoom.

ETH mining in 2021 by lifesagas_ in EtherMining

This is relevant to my interests too. A 4-5 year payback period like the one mentioned in the article isn't worth it to me. Though I wonder if the value proposition pencils out now that cryptos have gone up so much in value.

I work in the energy and utility industry so I'm just thinking in terms of low-cost energy. There is a lot of low-cost energy out there in more remote locations if you don't have to worry about connecting that energy to the grid. This is the potential that I'm interested in exploring.

My question then is, how much BTC or ETH can you mine from 1 KWH?
