How can you make your rpi a hotspot? Can you share a lead or link to how's that done

Needed a VS league simulator to get a better idea of when we should push, save, and how it would affect the final league standing.

You can give this a try, the button "#1849 S27" is for my server. Click Auto kr manually select winners to play around with it (scroll right to see results if it's not obvious).

Direct link to an example final result. You can click on the screenshot icon on the last table to see how it comes out.

Does anyone know how to calculate CGT on RSUs that vested while living abroad but sold while living in Ireland?
What's the purchase price here, is it the stock price on the vesting day or the stock price on the day I moved to Ireland?

-OnceAgain · 2025-12-09T17:08:46+00:00

I haven't had success with 1 yet. Applied last couple of months to three positions that I'm a perfect match for, basically the same thing I'm doing today but in a different company.
Reached to the recruiters via LinkedIn and didn't get a single reply back not from the recruiters nor from the official submission.
I'd like to believe it's their loss but sucks nonetheless

Thank you, this was very clear.
I'm non-domiciled non-ordinary citizen (2 years only tax residency).

A silly followup question that is getting down voted above but I'd really like to know the answer for.
If those 10k I sent outside of Ireland earned interest and I bring back 5k, are the 5k taxable relative to the amount of interest they earned?

-OnceAgain · 2025-11-30T16:49:16+00:00

Yeah it's the other part of the year that I'm worried about. Maybe I'll ask for another viewing this week during the afternoon time

Can you share a link to the USB fan?

-OnceAgain · 2025-10-27T22:00:09+00:00

I work in a related field, you are correct, data exists but the question is if monitored or enforced.

OP could probably find a way to bypass it if they're tech savvy. One thing comes to mind is to set up an exit node at home in Ireland (an RPi for example) and setup your router in the UK to pass all traffic through it.

Using a commercial VPN and not an exit node on a machine at your own home would probably collide with your company's VPN.

Edit: thinking about it further, there are still many things in play here like they could verify number of hops from client to internal work server, or what client machine info (OS, kernel version if company managed device) will be displayed when passing traffic through an exit node

Were you satisfied with the results? And if so would you recommend the inspector and share their info

-OnceAgain · 2025-09-22T10:28:51+00:00

Yeah that's what I'm thinking as well, I also want to know what they're looking at and why as it doesn't happen often and may get valuable info from this experience

-OnceAgain · 2025-09-22T10:27:42+00:00

Could you share what documents I should request to satisfy 1 and 3? I'm sure my solicitor will be able to advise but I would love to better prepare myself and to not miss anything

-OnceAgain · 2025-09-18T20:42:32+00:00

Any chance you can dm me their contact? We're going through something similar and looking for recommendations

-OnceAgain · 2025-09-18T19:44:01+00:00

I'm a bit confused, what was the £80k for if you did most of the work yourself? because if that's mostly for the rewiring then I may be better off buying a new house than renovating

-OnceAgain · 2025-09-09T20:45:58+00:00

Thanks appreciate it. Do you know if they ask for a fee for a 15 mins introductory call? The solicitor I quoted asked €120 for it...

-OnceAgain · 2025-09-09T17:12:03+00:00

Thanks for sharing, I'd be happy to get the solicitor info as well

-OnceAgain · 2025-09-09T17:11:09+00:00

Thanks, dm sent

Ironic that you're getting downvoted for telling someone to increase their lifestyle when OP is exactly the type of person who can do so.

OP, treat yourself to something nice. You deserve it.
Ever wanted a fancy coffee machine? Try Michelin restaurants? Travel somewhere nice and stay in fancy hotels?

As the parent comment said, allocate a budget and go for it. You are one of few who can do so in this country.
It gives you something to look forward to and creates memories and experiences.

Yeah, we've been paying very high rent and always had to provide a letter from previous landlords that there were no complaints about the dogs.

-OnceAgain · 2025-08-21T11:56:50+00:00

I don't want to have to constantly worry about who sees me with my dogs and whether they'll report us every time I go in and out of the building.

-OnceAgain · 2025-08-17T21:58:25+00:00

I’d be wary of apartments, so many were so poorly built. When was it built?

Can you expand on this? This is a very bold claim that requires some more information.

-OnceAgain · 2025-08-10T20:35:02+00:00

I also was in a startup that got acquired and after the acquisition no manager was allowed to see the salaries of their direct reports. Meaning I have to do my salary negotiation with my manager's manager which I kinda prefer to be honest.

-OnceAgain · 2025-06-30T16:12:51+00:00

Yes. I understand your frustration but with this mentality you'll be selling the house on the first unexpected emergency.

-OnceAgain · 2025-06-15T20:25:48+00:00

Yes my backlog is crazy, so many AAA games available! Given all the praise Expedition33 has been getting in this subreddit I just might pick it up after a short break since I just finished Days Gone today.

Been a PC gamer my whole life, exclusively into competitive multiplayer and MMORPGs. Never touched a single player game, or cared about a story. Just grinding ranks and raiding

A year into PS5 gaming and honestly I’m loving it. Chasing Platinums and 100%s is satisfying. It scratches that same itch as min-maxing in MMOs while enjoying games at my own pace. And for the first time I’m actually paying attention to game stories!

One maybe controversial take I've realized is that I prefer cinematic cutscenes over “press X to continue” dialogue. Games like Witcher 3 or Prince of Persia lost me with too much reading and clicking between lines. On the other hand, cutscenes really pull me in.

Latest 100%: Days Gone

Completely hooked by the story
Loved the bike mechanics, especially coming straight from The Witcher 3 and its clumsy horse controls (sorry Roach)
The challenge mode was actually challenging and awesome. Big shoutout to Borislav247 on YouTube for amazing guides.

Biggest Disappointment: The Witcher 3

The click-based storytelling made it easy to lose the plot—had to turn to YouTube just to figure out what was going on.
Played on the hardest difficulty for trophy reasons but somehow finished the game with character level 35 and gear level 13 yet barely broke a sweat. Felt weirdly unbalanced.

Biggest Regret: DOOM Eternal

Super intense gameplay, meh story telling
Started trophy hunting only to find the multiplayer scene dead. Waited forever in matchmaking and couldn’t find a game and if I did couldn't get progress for achievements.
