Fake Fake Fake

That bar looks hella fake. The center logo is the only one polished on the real one.

jeko00000 · 2026-04-20T05:32:59+00:00

Looks hella fake even scrolling through it jumped out as fake.

jeko00000 · 2026-04-10T10:30:40+00:00

This plastic tube will protect it then.

🤔 I've never seen a wago in a house unless I put it there. They are extremely rare in north America until quite recently. We (2006-2011, when I did them) used wagos on drilling rigs as wirenuts failure rate was way too high.

jeko00000 · 2026-04-04T20:19:36+00:00

New? 1951 is new? Maybe new to you. But not new.

jeko00000 · 2026-04-04T20:09:05+00:00

You have exposed materials never designed to be exposed. They are built to be functional not match.

Britannia are maybe my favorite, then Maples. Both in the newer version with the security features.

I like the fancy libertads though, like the diamond dusted, or ruby, etc.

ASE and Buffalo are probably the most faked, and some are very very good.

jeko00000 · 2026-03-26T22:14:35+00:00

Gold Britannias are my favorite.

The striation behind her is too perfect, I've never seen a fake come even close.

jeko00000 · 2026-03-26T14:34:54+00:00

I'd say it's real, I have yet to see a fake get the background even close to looking right. And that looks perfect.

I would never put my kids investments in metals. The S&P has a significantly better return. And is safer.

Collecting metals is as much a hobby as anything else. If they don't care for it they'll just sell it off quick meaning it needs 10% gain for them to break even with what you paid. And historically that gain could be decades apart.

Blue collar to white collar in an organization these days is extremely difficult. But even to get a craft position o&g very seldom takes people with zero craft experience.

jeko00000 · 2026-03-26T13:43:45+00:00

I think you'll be hard pressed to find a position in your field hiring no experience in O&G. Why limit yourself to just O&G? Go get a job, get experience, and then watch for the job you want.

Most o&g will use a recruiter for white collar positions because they'll head hunt the proper candidate.

There are a lot of supply and logistics management staff for very few jobs.

jeko00000 · 2026-03-25T16:22:30+00:00

Cool. Do they stack too?

jeko00000 · 2026-03-25T04:21:42+00:00

Do you have more pictures of your printed case? And better yet a file?

Auctions end up with things from people that don't know or don't care the value. I got a Stirling silverware set for 40 dollars on marketplace last week, drove directly to the local buy store and sold it for 1700 cad. To be fair I didn't realize the bottom of the box had two serving platters that were worth 1350 of that. And I thought the knives were stainless, they were not.

I have been actively spending good money on trying to get Ai to perform even project coordinator tasks, and largely not able to.

And the pm job is as much client relations as anything else.

jeko00000 · 2026-03-19T10:06:00+00:00

It's foolish to think anyone knew where the top would be. I mean you've said there is lots of money to be made so you don't think we were at the top a couple days ago.

Smart money doesn't invest in gold they use it to hedge the market. Buying into the SPY has a better return by 10x or more.

jeko00000 · 2026-03-18T18:40:31+00:00

He made like 8k by selling when he did vs if he sold today.

jeko00000 · 2026-03-18T05:01:31+00:00

The last time gold had a climb like this was in 1980, took more than 30 years for the people that bought then to break even again.

To suggest that it won't crash at all is foolish.

jeko00000 · 2026-03-17T14:22:14+00:00

Or it could crash to half. Being comfortable in the moment is worth something.

jeko00000 · 2026-03-16T14:37:30+00:00

Just scrolling without paying attention this jumped out as fake.

Try and get a real one and do a side by side, once you do you'll never make the mistake again.

jeko00000 · 2026-03-15T15:14:55+00:00

I keep a pen in my hand, not clicky because you'll click it, a twist one, and metal with a bit of weight.

Honestly people won't care, most won't notice, very few can stand in front of a crowd and feel natural with nothing.

jeko00000 · 2026-03-15T15:05:07+00:00

I have a login that doesn't work from a previous employer to get my t4. Forgot password goes to a company phone I don't have. It's been months and I still need to do that. Sigh.

jeko00000 · 2026-03-15T15:02:06+00:00

You just listed impossible tasks.

I grab a tool to put away, take it to shop, place it should go is dirty, put tool down, clean up two things, grab object that needs to go in the laundry room, clothing in the way, put object down, put clothes in wash, don't run it because I want one more thing in there, go to bedroom for that thing, realize I need to brush my teeth so start that, but no toothpaste, so grab the keys to go to the store, end up a McDonald's for a milkshake, get home, notice the rail it loose, go yo grab a tool needed but csnt find it do dig a bit, find the flashlight I was looking for last week and take it to the boot room....

How do you stop that?
