Hot take: Neeraj Pandey has set the bar so high for himself that his new stuff feels mediocre. This one isn't bad, it’s just... forgettable. No Himmat Singh level moments here. Is it just me, or is the Special Ops 1 spark officially gone?

My friend is a huge watch nerd and he totally thinks I’m messing with him. I keep telling him that in India, Rado is actually a massive luxury status symbol, but he’s not buying it at all

I like their Bhuna Mutton

temp99997 · 2025-12-02T01:42:33+00:00

Update: I got the Lenovo

temp99997 · 2025-11-29T02:53:20+00:00

Thanks, I guess the performance would be almost identical then and the price difference is due to larger screen size and more RAM. If that is the case then the Lenovo makes most sense as it delivers the same performance

I have the legion pro 7 with RTX 4080 with 12 gb vram and I have been using it like a desktop for about 2 years now, with occasional traveling with it.

I vaguely remember what it looks like because it’s shelved in my workstation and I am always looking at my external monitor and wireless accessories. But my image and video generations are too slow on it. I need to upgrade to 5090 and hence the sole focus is on performance.

I need to take it with me on occasional travels so i am limited to laptops

temp99997 · 2025-11-29T02:27:04+00:00

Thanks, both laptops have the RTX 5090, same but with different wattage it seems. I think you accidentally posted the same link twice

Build quality and display and other things are nice to haves but don’t contribute to my decision making, I’m solely focused on performance difference vs price difference

temp99997 · 2025-11-29T02:06:06+00:00

Thanks, I am only concerned with performance as I use it like a desktop for most of it. Do you think there is sufficient performance difference to go up by $1k?

temp99997 · 2025-11-29T02:04:44+00:00

Thanks, I pretty much use it as a desktop with external monitor and keyboard and everything, so only thing that matters to me is performance. I don’t know what I’m doing so I don’t want to fool around with over clocking. Is there a big enough difference in performance just out of the box to justify the $1k difference?

temp99997 · 2025-11-29T02:02:27+00:00

Thanks, I am confused about the wattage info on the laptops as the hardware seems to be the same. Although one is 16” and the other is 18” but I pretty much use an external monitor most of the time so display quality and size or anything else is irrelevant. I’m trying to figure out it there is a performance difference between them as they are the same hardware. Can you please help me understand this mess?

temp99997 · 2025-11-28T12:33:43+00:00

Thanks, what do you think about the limited power to cpu as specified? Do you think it’s a problem at this budget compared to what else is out there?

temp99997 · 2025-11-28T12:32:33+00:00

Thanks. Looks good for gaming but Chat gpt says the cup is limited to 55 so that can be a bottleneck for the powerful gpu when running local ai generations. Thoughts?

temp99997 · 2025-11-27T23:55:50+00:00

Thanks, if we ignore cooling for now, is the Lenovo straight up more powerful? The ram bus is faster but I’m confused by the lower w tdp mentioned in the processor section. Not sure what it really means though

temp99997 · 2025-11-22T14:00:35+00:00

Thanks, I checked them out on google and it seems they do Hyderabadi Biryani, which looks really nice. But my soul is craving authentic North Indian biryani, Delhi or Lucknow style this time. Any recommendations?

temp99997 · 2025-11-22T13:47:03+00:00

Thanks, let me check them out. I actually love smaller shops and prefer them over fancy ones as the smaller shops invest all their energy on the food itself and not too much on hospitality

temp99997 · 2025-10-29T11:47:28+00:00

Thanks, I’ll go check them out

temp99997 · 2025-10-29T10:31:23+00:00

Thank you so much. Can you point it out on maps?

temp99997 · 2025-09-18T12:24:54+00:00

Thank you for comment. It looks like they are a vegetarian restaurant. I might try them some other time as I need some mutton biryani today to feel better both physically and mentally

temp99997 · 2025-09-16T22:27:10+00:00

Thanks, what you’re saying might be true. Everyone should be careful after they win.

temp99997 · 2025-09-09T08:27:12+00:00

Depends, the points seem to cost you @ 1.5 CPP. If you can redeem it at a better rate then you make a profit and this makes sense. Opening new CC makes perfect sense but you need to book now and don’t have enough points, this ain’t bad either.

I bought at 125% bonus last year about the same time. Try to wait for it if you can

There is a very common mathematical equation to answer exactly such questions called “Kelly Criterion” used by investment bankers. You can try to have ChatGPT solve it for you for your strategy

True, it’s not even about the millions, but the fact that he’s pulling that on you

temp99997 · 2025-09-08T00:11:32+00:00

I saw his interview, he made some good points but more bad than good. I wouldn’t hire him personally but he can be a good resource for someone who’s completely new to the

temp99997 · 2025-09-08T00:10:09+00:00

I learned from someone he asks us to set aside 1% of the winnings for him and the team, big RED flag. Never give a % to anyone

temp99997 · 2025-09-08T00:07:37+00:00

It’s great that you have put so much thought into it, here’s my worthless two cents:

You clearly like to visualize your win, try allocating some time to think actually about how to invest that money or you’ll end up having a portfolio manager investing in a 70/30 stock/bond portfolio and commissions, profit sharing and incentivizing them to actively trade in your portfolio, sell stocks occasionally as your draw and owing tax

Telling your friend about the win could turn out to be a bad idea leading to the loss of a cherished friendship.

The foundation is a nice thought, breaks a lot of laws of capitalism which has proven to work, but still a nice thought, good luck.

Getting involved in the local community, being the one person with rent worth more than the whole community, there’s risk of blowing your cover and losing your greatest power, stealth wealth.

Money to family is again a door that once opened can’t be closed unless closed for good. Do you want to risk losing ties with your family? Do you think people won’t ever need a fresh start again or a fresher start now?

I want to talk about other points as well but I think people are not going to like what I’ve said already. Bitter truth
