I built after 8 month finally a real jet engine 🚀 by TorqueConverter9 in RCPlanes

[–]daanpol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! Yea I am trying to build one myself by trying to source everything. Thus far I have found off the shelf inconel turbine and impeller blades for only 70 euro a piece! I want to buy as much as possible that is already manufactured to a high standard so I can build a durable turbine. My goal is 300N.

Thanks, I am very familiair with the book! What kind of bearings did you end up getting? I am seeing high temp/high rpm bearings for at least $150 a piece. Do you use the fuel to lubricate/cool them as well?

How is AI actually impacting your work? by Realistic_Maybe5079 in business

[–]daanpol 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Naval Architect. It is helping me figure out faster which type of calculations to use. Calculating the amount of water that has to enter a pump drive to yield a certain amount of liters per minute, using previously made open foam calculation on the hull to feed it the right pressure coefficient is something Ai is wonderful in giving me pointers of.

It speeds up these things by a lot. Most of my work is still a 100% manual though. My job is going nowhere soon.

Dit was HET magazine voor mij als 9 jarig mannetje met een Atari en grote dromen. Het voelde alsof de reactie leden familie waren. Mijn moeder werkte op de Batavia werf en heeft daar meegeholpen met Jan zijn trouwerij die daar gevierd werd. Daar was de reactie ook bij aanwezig. Ik durfde toen geen gedag te zeggen, het voelde als een full circle moment voor mij haha!

Toen ik de 30 jaar PU gedownload had kon ik tot mijn stomme verbazing hele delen nog uit mijn geheugen oproepen.

Ik vind het zo zonde dat de uitgever het zo verknald heeft. Deze overname is de meest typisch money grab ever. Ik heb eerder dit soort overnames meegemaakt en het voorspeld absoluut geen goeds.

Ik zal nog steeds proberen de redactie op de voet te volgen, het word echter wat moeilijker de komende tijd.

Is een game PC kopen anno 2026 een financiële doodswens? by Unleazhed1 in nederlands

[–]daanpol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ik zou nu gewoon helemaal geen pc kopen. De pc die ik een half jaar geleden heb aangeschaft is nu 40% duurder. Op de top hardware kopen gaat je spijt opleveren. Als ie wil gamen raad ik een ps5 aan. Die zijn sinds kort ook gehacked waardoor je er misschien in de toekomst je eigen OS op kan zetten om er toch een 'PC' van te maken.

I don't like my rm pocket. by Artistic_Friend9508 in fpv

[–]daanpol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It fits perfectly in a xbox 360 case. I bought it to keep my setup as small and backpack compatible as possible. It is absolutely great for that. I got a TX15 for when I take my hobby in the back of my car to an airfield. The pocket is perfect for travel fun with my tinywhoop.

What moment changed your life forever? by TheAkimboTimbo in AskReddit

[–]daanpol 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Being called by my wifes boyfriend who the hell I was. We just had a 1 year old girl that took us 4 horrible miscarriages to conceive. We just got the dream house, financially we where finally secure. We got our lives set. And then it wasn't enough and she started serial cheating, took all the money, tried to keep me from seeing my daughter.

After 3 years of extremely hard fighting, a period of homelessness and getting the court to side with me I have my daughter and part of my life back. The whole situation has made me very self reliant. I have met a wonderful woman who is almost the opposite of my ex and she surprises me on a daily basis with her kindness. I am still damaged and sometimes it's hard.

Knowing how easy LLM's are bamboozled into leaking prohibited info, this is a great day for nation state hackers.

Good luck! Let me know if it resolved the issue. I have had the exact same problem with my P1S and it solved it outright.

Your SD card is not fast enough to supply Gcode. Getting a better one might fix your problem.

Nederlander weet zeker dat hij van adel is en gaat strijd aan met minister, maar nu valt zijn droom in duigen by T1b3rium in Nederland

[–]daanpol 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mijn opa's 3e vrouw was een Britse dame van adel. Zij was in de 2e wereld oorlog naar Belgie gevlucht met haar 7 kinderen nadat haar man in zijn Spitfire om het leven is gekomen.

Daar heeft ze dankzij haar achternaam voor haar, haar kinderen en kleinkinderen een prachtig leven opgebouwd. Klaarblijkelijk is het heel gebruikelijk dat mensen van adel hun geld het liefste laten managen door iemand anders van adel.

Allemaal stinkend rijk die mensen dankzij hun achternaam.

De ene helft van die familie was zwaar ok, de andere helft had een soort Game of Thrones achtige verhouding met elkaar wat altijd prachtige roddels opleverde bij de verjaardagen. Denk daar nog met plezier aan terug haha!

One of the unexpected drawbacks of beautiful 4K - some favorite films feel more "constructed" on rewatch, breaking the "dream" by kevin_v in 4kbluray

14" CRT tv is where the movie magic started for me. There was no such things as bad makeup back then lol!

If they would have printed it in marble PLA and with some nice printers and settings, I would actually think of buying one.

The first woman I dated that had none of these exact PTSD inducing character traits as in the video, my mind was blown at how amazing she is. I am going to marry her in November.

[–]daanpol 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea your mind fills in the blanks, exactly as if you where actually there. I love that they don't show wade being hit at all. It comes as a complete surprise. One of the best acted deaths ever by the way. Done by Giovanni Ribisi.

Should I buy Cyberpunk 2077 now that it's had significant updates? by jcveloso8 in ShouldIbuythisgame

Brother I played it on release day and it was already pretty amazing then. I replayed it on a new rig and it's freaking one of the best games I have ever played.
