fuck these animals

Eh the animals did nothing wrong. They didn't ask to be born as the artificially selected abominations we've made them into. Fuck people who continue to breed these animals and don't spay/neuter their pits.

It's been proven that people who do fuckall after throwing their money into mutual funds generally fare better than people actively monitoring and making stock moves.

You're probably fine.

I never bought NVIDIA in the first place so this news doesn't affect me.

If anything now would be a good time to buy NVIDIA. But I probably won't.

Well the billions only came after his presidency because he now had a huge pool of loyalists he could grift out of their life savings with meme coin and begging for donations. Yes he had some generational wealth, most of which he blew on his bankrupted businesses but he's also just a good grifter.

Trump is worth billions now though...

It's a compliment sandwich. You have to include the two pieces of compliment bread even if it's bullshit or else you'll be accused of not offering constructive criticism.

This is the kind of stupid take that got us here.

It's only been 7 days. Lol. We still have at least 3.98 years of this (assuming Democracy isn't abolished after this point and we don't get to vote anymore).

My greatest desire is my state which is deep blue decides to secede and we get Cascadia up in this shit.

Well we are their main demographic so it's still a good financial decision for them.

I would not consider myself an expert either. Advanced beginner or low-end of intermediate at best. But I'm hoping the "build it and they will come" principle takes effect and we get some experts in here.

That's a good point! I think I'm convinced to buy new now.

It's kind of funny that the manual/kiln sitter kilns are not recommended. I feel like they're still quite popular in the US.

Thanks for the response! The circuit I am putting in should comfortably handle the KM-1027 and I would not go bigger or more powerful than that kiln.

The usage aspect is a concern of mine, which is why I’m thinking of going smaller. I don’t know how long it would take me to fill a kiln. It may be a month or two since I’m a slow producer doing it as a hobby. But I also don’t want to be too limited in size, and the smaller kilns cost almost as much as the larger kilns anyway so I’m wondering if I should just go with the 1027. I could put my kiln on KilnShare in between my own firings but that opens up a different can of worms.

I do have an electrical engineering degree so the electronics portion of it doesn’t scare me that much. I’d probably use existing open source kiln controller projects but I don’t know how good they are. I probably wouldn’t want to program my own from scratch, that’s a little too much investment. lol. I’m mostly wondering if the current solutions out there are any good and whether it’s worth it to go for the older cheaper kilns and that, or just get new. I’m leaning towards new though.

Oh they will but in the same breath say how Biden and Harris would have been exactly the same if not worse.
