What scares me off crypto is that I'm overhearing guys at Christmas parties and the gym talking about Ripple and Ethereum and Elysium and Prometheus blah blah

These are seasonal and/or first time investors who are shaky at best which is likely why it's so volatile. Tons of money to be made, tons to be lost, but a hell of a lot of luck in that sort of environment just picking the right time or having faith that ultimately it's going to see-saw its way up. Investors are bad enough in tangible companies.

You can talk about Crypto's at Christmas parties not Casino bets :30_no_mouth:


There is nothing more annoying than the person that starts talking crypto to people they met like 5 seconds ago... On par with proud Facebook atheists that think they have evolved into super intelligent god-kings...


Hmmm maybe Hamish is right, maybe I'll sell everything and just leave it in a bank account and earn enough interest to pay my phone bill every month.


I never said that was the best plan.... But it's certainly smarter than pumping everything you have into crypto and never cashing out because you think it can never, ever go down.... Which is essentially the main thing keeping the bubble going... For now....

Why wait a day when you could wait a minute

You young punks and your instant gratification.

It's all cocaine, hookers and crypto alts these days.

I remember back in my day we'd need to settle in and wait months for people to lose their money on oil stocks.

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
