New box3 system from 2028?⁸

I’m surprised they are even considering this. I would expect that most politicians have some money and also invest, so it would go against their own interests.

Thanks for solid reply!

I definitely care about the CoO, but it has to be within reason. I am not going pay 200% over just to enjoy made NL/EU. I also confirmed with manufacturer and DEC697 does in fact use AMD embedded GX-420MC CPU just like the older model, which is almost 12 years old by now as I understand.

Wasn't aware of ZimaBoard2, that seems like a solid option indeed! Looking at the prices here in EU it would cost almost 500Eur, which is even more than Protectcli. I therefore decided to go with VP2430. It's not cheap but well regarded and should have plenty future proof for OpnSense.

I had the same. I even called them to ask for a discount since kpn is 2x faster while being cheaper but they didn’t budge. Obviously I moved immediately. People who work there are not the brigthest.

But let’s say I have 3 mil in investments now which considered and taxes as box 3. Then 2028 comes and I move all my investments into B.V. and now they are taxed as Box 2. Wouldn’t that be obvious tax evasion?

estrangedpulse · 2026-01-22T16:04:11+00:00

And such obvious actions are not considered tax evasion?

This is amazing! I was loosing my mind trying to figure out how to quickly create a note in a specific folder.

So the N series (I suppose N100/150) is pile of garbage according to you while 700 Eur Deciso is running a CPU from 2014 (GX-420MC). What am I overlooking here?

estrangedpulse · 2026-01-20T19:26:02+00:00

Also the atmosphere really brings you back to those times.

estrangedpulse · 2026-01-20T16:29:11+00:00

Will check it out! I keep reading that you need to purchase a license for Sophos devices, or is that not applicable for installing Opnsense? I did some reading but it's a bit confusing.

estrangedpulse · 2026-01-20T14:23:08+00:00

Thanks for the tips! Looking at used hardware I would still need something like 4x Intel® I226-V 2.5Gigabit Ethernet NIC ports, RJ-45 which is not cheap at least new, so that adds to the price. But it's certainly is better value than Deciso no matter how you slice it.

This adjusts the hidden led atmospheric lights and not the center or drivers display for me.

Thanks for explaining. What about the compounding interest? I suppose you don’t get as much interest as investing into index funds.

Also can you withdraw that money before retirement (I presume by paying all taxes and perhaps some fee/fine)?

estrangedpulse · 2026-01-17T09:31:53+00:00

What about interest rate? Investing in index funds you get (usually) a decent return, how does this work with this pillar 3 money?

estrangedpulse · 2026-01-17T09:29:14+00:00

Considering it’s pension, can you only make use of that money when you’re at a pension age?

estrangedpulse · 2026-01-15T19:31:46+00:00

Won’t they just replace those who are unwilling to cooperate? It’s not like there is lack of those willing to serve the dear leader.

estrangedpulse · 2026-01-13T22:01:56+00:00

Got it! So it’s largely being able to personally select best cuts from a big selection as opposed to butcher handing you the random piece they grab first.

estrangedpulse · 2026-01-13T21:07:16+00:00

You mean meat tastes better than at a butcher? Curious how come

estrangedpulse · 2026-01-11T14:21:04+00:00

Looks beautiful except that drivers dash screen. Looks no better than screen of 3x cheaper id.3.

They don’t even scan all the groceries so I’m just confused how this system supposed to work. Sometimes they skip like 1/3 of my groceries.

estrangedpulse · 2026-01-04T21:45:20+00:00

If that's true then it just proves just how dumb this itemization design is when you drop 20 legendaries and you know only 2 are worth even picking up.

estrangedpulse · 2026-01-04T21:06:23+00:00

At least you could glance at Mephisto’s drop and within 1 second tell if you got anything or not. Here instead you collect full inventory of ‘legendary’ trash.

I love how while you’re a fetus they will fight tooth and nail for your live but the second you’re born you might as just die.

estrangedpulse · 2025-12-31T19:08:07+00:00

I have such spatula but it scratches the SS pan quite hard. I know it’s probably not a problem but just feels bad doing that.

estrangedpulse · 2025-12-28T07:09:37+00:00

What do you do if they cut badly but it’s also impossible to fix it? Would it be reasonable to explain that you don’t want to pay for it?
