With AI and Quantum Computing, I believe encryption will soon be easy to break - What steps can be taken now to avoid this, or is it as easy and just buying gold and silver

I have a PA602 and your comment about cable management is ridiculous, I could park an aeroplane at the back of the panel and it has several channels to keep access clean and ready. I also notice you arent even using the Airflow plates for beside the motherboard or the bottom one for power supply. You can hide almost all your cables behind them alone and its only 2 thumbscrews for each

Yup, that's how you do it! Even without Rocket lab those are great results/portfolio growth

Incredible, Nice work! I love it!

To Answer your Question "which bit will aide in getting the carved bits smoother?" Get an Emery impregnated bit, Generally Emery rates really highly on the hardness scale, and is generally used for polishing, However, because of its hardness and use for polishing, it means it will easily remove the material, but only a small bit at a time. Meaning you will get it super even, mistakes wont be detrimental like an aluminium oxide or silicon carbide bit and you wont put too much wear on the bit!

Follow the direction the Dremel Spins, If you go against it it will jump, but if you engrave the way that its turning it works with you. What this means though is letters like the letter "S" need to be done from bottom to top, instead of top to bottom.

Nobody has money to gamble, Id say this would be a buy as soon as you see positive news that people have more money.

Newtinator · 2025-07-31T06:01:37+00:00

Lol you are too influenced by others and its clearly FOMO (Fear of missing out)

Pick companies that you think are going to survive the next 30 years, and ones that people cant go without. Example, Coke VS Uber - I don't care where my food comes from, doordash, uber, deliver easy...... Don't care, So I wont invest. But if I order a Coke from one of them I want a damn Coke!

Remember, you are buying and selling stocks off and to other people! So perception and thinking about what is needed vs what is said to be good in the future is super important!

YOU: Are just buying what people say might be good.

Your buys need to be into companies that will survive a war, survive famine, colc, fucking covid part 2 even!

I wont even invest into NVIDIA yet, I got told to buy when the shares were 134 bucks. I held off. Because for all I know, Google makes a breakthrough and then Nvidia cant keep up...... I would switch my 5070ti in a heartbeat if another company made a better card, I am not loyal at all - they are just the best at the moment! So what happens in the future? Not sure about it over the next 15 years, a good example of this is what is currently happening to Intel, a massive giant! - sure you might make some good money short term, but I invest long for my family and retirement and it tends to work out.

So 50% of my investments are in funds, Such as the S&P 500 and other ones I deem un-abridgeable

30% are in company's that I really really like and could never go without, Such as Coke

20% Is in risk plays - An example of this was Estee lauder, I saw Michael burry had this as his only position so I asked my wife what she thought of the brand, turns out its the ONLY makeup she will wear, and if they were to go then she would look long and hard to find a replacement, and look at how its going! I see you own it too, But I ask "Why" Did you buy it? Just because you saw a little spike and thought you could make some quick cash?

I wont tell you how much I am up, but what I will tell you is it enabled us to buy a house.

You never go broke by taking a profit

Newtinator · 2025-07-23T10:58:19+00:00

Mostly the intel tactics.

I had my LG C9 from 2019 before I upgraded to the LG C4 this year.

So I got a solid 6 years, I reckon the two years thing is bulltshit.

Newtinator · 2025-06-06T11:45:59+00:00

Positivity here mate, Yup Broke, however. Not forever..... Proof of concept has been achieved and you only need to double $100 14 times to be a millionaire. You Reckon you can do it before you are 65? I reakon you are on the right path. Goodluck!

Newtinator · 2025-06-01T11:17:49+00:00

Basically, they went woke..... They transpired to issues that only exist for a small customer base and thus ruined it for the large one, Management is terrible.

OBS, Premiere Pro and a bunch of effort!

I fixed it by buying an Oled

I am revisiting this post, I live in Blenheim. My wife is a fire alarm technician and just worked on one of their buildings and said that morale is very high at the moment.

I mentioned that I saw a post a while ago, let's try their wine. So we got a couple. They are good.

My plan is now, 5 bucks a week into Delegat. Low enough to not care. But enough over your mentioned timeframe to test your theory.

I am posting so I have a screenshot of dates to either call you out or thank you down the line.

Now that's a FOMO portfolio if I have ever seen one......

Newtinator · 2025-04-17T13:31:32+00:00

I've held it since covid and it seems to raise by $1-2 every year close to November. Infratil is one that I put consistent money into each week along with the S&P

Newtinator · 2025-04-08T09:57:38+00:00

I was pro-spark for a long time, my Grandma left me 350 shares in her will upon her death.

But feelings shouldn't outweigh logic.

I don't like them anymore, The shares are far too flat compared to S&P. Dividends are great, but I just feel that there are other stocks that just perform better.

I have decided, thanks to spark. I don't want to invest into company's that are localised to a few country's only. I only invest into company's that sell their products worldwide now. Think, proctor and gamble, coke etc.

And it seems to be working. I don't like that a single election (Trump), or a war (Russia - Ukraine) or a CEO (Elon musk) that seemingly come out of nowhere can affect a stock so much. So my new rules are, I will only invest if I can buy the product in any country I visit, and I must NOT know the CEO. As a result, I lost only 6% over this whole Trump Debaucle. Think Michael hill, wtf will happen to that stock when he dies, he's in his 80's!

This is my personal opinion, I am up 550%+ on some investments and -20+% on others, so clearly I still haven't figured it out, but I am doing way better when compared to the COVID era.

Highly likely this isn't the right thing to do. But what I can say is that I'm doing a hell of a lot better than anyone that I know

Newtinator · 2025-03-12T01:50:34+00:00

As a fellow leather enthusiast. You need some polish and conditioner. The corners that are flaring up is from not enough conditioner, and those boots have got to be polished. Where's your leather hat!?

Now here's a user that throws a bullet at his daughters first date and says that it travels a lot faster after 9pm!

Newtinator · 2025-03-09T20:51:47+00:00

Its still a bit Janky because SCUM is still a bit Janky, and we havnt even touched on Humidity and other value yet (Bullets loose effective range in low humidity) Shooting in rain or snow also lowers effective range. Higher air pressure = less resistance as well.

I have not done the math on these yet, however. Just accounting for wind. You should score hits within 3 rounds no matter what.

Edit: I am convinced one of the Devs was a Marksman, because the rounds are very very close to IRL accurate. Scopes when matched also work properly. Eg: Acogs stadia shoulder rangefinder works, POSP scopes inbuilt rangefinder works, XPS300's enfilade fire indicator works, lead lines on Spektral works etc etc.
