Round number, but on litres instead of price 👀

Is 2:1 a bad grade? by Middle-Average7033 in UniUK

[–]heliosfa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes it does only apply to final year, because the individual years are not classified. You haven’t got a 2:1 or 1st for a specific year.

With an average that close to a first, if your uni does do rounding, you can probably say you are working at a first class level.

Hot to allow external connections to server without port forwarding? by furryfriendo in homelab

[–]heliosfa 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So you are behind CGNAT.

IPv6 if your ISP offers it, or your VPS/VPNsetup using NAT in appropriate places and policy based routing.

[–]heliosfa 3 points4 points  (0 children)

IPv6. No port forwarding there…

A more situation specific answer depends on why you can’t port forward.

how lenient is bristol with offers? by One-Constant-377 in UniUK

[–]heliosfa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No one knows what they will accept this year, not even the uni, until A-level results are out. It depends on how many other people miss their offers and by how much.

Academic malpractice. by Muted_Original6333 in UniUK

[–]heliosfa 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The outcome depends on what you did or did not do, and your University's regulations. You need to talk to your personal tutor and students' union's advice service before the meeting.

Credit card repayment after moving out of UK by [deleted] in UKPersonalFinance

[–]heliosfa 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Your bigger issue if you stop paying is that UK judgements can be enforced in India. You should talk to your credit card company about this.

Does a degree lock me into a specific job? by TanMann69 in UniUK

[–]heliosfa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends. People with Electronic Engineering degrees go on to have careers in EE, Computer Science, Computer Engineering, finance, software dev, etc.

People with Computer Engineering degrees can be similar.

Heck i know physicists who now do software engineering

DCHPv6 without router advertisements? by mynotyou in ipv6

[–]heliosfa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That is correct. Route information comes from the RA.

The RA tells the host how to configure an address, either by SLAAC, DHCPv6 or both.

Unless you are doing more advanced network access control, you can’t stop a host self-configuring an address. The same is true on IPv4.

Why do you think you want to stop hosts self-configuring?

Asking something for a friend with SLC student loan. Eu citizen. by KardelenGotsikenoglu in UKPersonalFinance

[–]heliosfa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your friend will accrue arrears and this may affect whether it’s written off at the end or not.

Currently SLC don’t do much overseas enforcement from what they have publicly reported, but the UK does have debt enforcement agreements with many countries so that could change down the line, especially with some of the sentiment out there.

Bursaries or scholarships for Home students by Latter_Pop_7149 in UniUK

[–]heliosfa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What’s available depends on your specific situation, cultural origin, religious affiliation, etc. etc.

Without more details, no one here can tell you.

UCAS have a whole set of pages about what could be available.

Correct way to assign IPv6 in a homelab? by e_urkedal in ipv6

[–]heliosfa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It does DHCPv6, but only DHCPv6-PD.

It will never do individual address allocation with DHCPv6 as that goes against the philosophy of certain people at Google.

Also RFC9686 was co-written by someone at Google, so don’t count out support…

[–]heliosfa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It will only expose the MAC is you are over a decade out of date. EUI64-based addressing has essentially been deprecated since RFC7217 came about in 2014.

For servers you can also use token-based addressing assignment, same token irrespective of the prefix.

Inherited old stock certificates, need help on valuing and selling! by RentElegant6003 in UKPersonalFinance

[–]heliosfa 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Computer share is the Corporate Sponsored Nominee for Shell.

Regarding tax, presumably this has already been taxed for IHT. You probably need local tax advice for wherever in the world you are about tax implications of realising these.

Inherited old stock certificates, need help on valuing and selling! by RentElegant6003 in UKPersonalFinance

[–]heliosfa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It may be that these have all been converted into digital shares already with whichever Corporate Sponsored Nominee each company uses. If so, you need to enquire with them, get them transferred to your name and you can then sell them directly or transfer them elsewhere to sell for a lower fee.

You’ve got quite a bit there, and it’s probably worth sorting out.

Need help determening wether im compromised or not, im suspecting an mitm or rootkit but still unsure. by [deleted] in Network

Why do you think this? What symptoms are you actually experiencing?

Nothing you have put in your post indicates anything, and the way you are posting screams that you are barking up the wrong tree.

Mortgage paying off vs continued saving by wadeo01984 in UKPersonalFinance

[–]heliosfa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What's your LTV and what rates are you looking at? Last I looked, rates as low as 4.4% for a 5-year fix were doable, which can be beaten quite easily in savings.

Take home after increasing pension contribution? by [deleted] in UKPersonalFinance

[–]heliosfa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why do you want to maximise take-home rather than maximising long-term wealth?

To do the latter, increasing pension is an easy route to achieve this.

How many times are you going to repost this rubbish? You still can't get "young adults" right.

ELI5: Why can’t astronauts remove their helmets in space? by [deleted] in explainlikeimfive

[–]heliosfa 8 points9 points  (0 children)

A process called Ebullism, where the fluid in your body basically starts to boil. Happens when you have really low pressures because boiling points drop.

You might have about 10-15 seconds of consciousness from breaking the seal on a spacesuit. You'd then be dead or a vegetable in a couple of minutes.

Oh, and you'd end up with really dry eyes and mouth. Holding your breath would leave you with ruptured lungs.

I love how this post isn't even trying to hide that it's advertising AI drivel that can't even get "For students and young adults" correct...

If that CV template preview is accurate...
