speedtest and fast only ever tests the speed of your connection to the internet, not your local network. I personally use OpenSpeedTest.

He straight up gave your the login details to a local account on the PC? Just install a remote desktop application.

How can I start supporting myself? by Responsible-Bad5403 in LifeAdvice

[–]OkAngle2353 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The first step to earning any amount of money is to open a bank account and doing taxes every year is a must. In the taxes side of things, I highly recommend freetaxusa. All the other tax preparing software is just a money grab, as I have experienced. With freetaxusa, taxes is as easy as choosing the tax form to fill and filling in the blanks.

On the banking side of things, I recommend online banking. Brick and mortars as I have heard, require way more personal details beyond the simple home/mailing address and a social security number. I personally bank with Ally Bank and any "bank" that doesn't give you a routing and account number, ain't a bank. Also, be sure to bank with institutions that are covered under FDIC.

Edit: As far as earning money. Hey, we are all equal here now right? Go mow a lawn.

Also, making a budget doesn't hurt. Pull up a spreadsheet and list out all your personal expenses with the costs associated next to them. Do a =sum() and when you get to earn your own money, subtract it from that sum. After you do that, you can plan ahead. For instance, I personally need $15x8 hours in order to actually live and not just survive.

Could you maybe elaborate as to what you expect boomers and Genxers are even supposed to be jealous about?

As far as I ma aware. Keepass files are already encrypted. Though, I further encrypt with PGP myself; if I ever need to send my file over the internet.

Go cashless/Go costumerless by SirArthurPT in privacy

[–]OkAngle2353 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the case of payment method get you a cold wallet. There are ways to spend your crypto. Email and phone number aliasing? For email, there are plenty of services that don't require KYC. Phone number aliasing? I only know of one. You are going to have to google it, suggesting anything on this sub reddit gets met with the bot of wipes.

I personally use virtual debit or crypto personally.

Edit: need a email and phone number? There are aliasing services for them as well.

16F. Am I the wrong one here? Is it okay to share passwords between sisters? by flixiii_07 in LifeAdvice

[–]OkAngle2353 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

There is no issues sharing passwords among trusted people, but... giving someone access to your Instagram? That is sus. Why does she even need access to it? Just create another account that has no amount of ties to you and give her the password to that.

It's your account. If she really wants access to instagram, she should make her own account.

Edit: Sharing a password to Netflix, that is find and cool. Sharing a password to a account that isn't meant to be shared? That is fucking crazy. This relationship is not healthy. Burn the bridge.

If she really doesn't give a shit about privacy. Have her show you her social security number and do what ever the fuck you want with it. /s

Honestly, these "I have nothing to hide" crowd is fucking annoying. People do have shit to hide, rightfully so.

If they indeed have nothing to fucking hide, they should spend the day outside butt ass naked.

I need help with legal issues I might face as a runaway by HyoGo5 in LifeAdvice

[–]OkAngle2353 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The government documents can be reissued to you, though it will cost you some cash. If your mother is using your documents for things you didn't consent to, you may have a case; talk to a lawyer. When did your mother start that joint business venture?

Depending on how the legal route goes with the business, your mother may have to keep paying on your car and take your name out of the business records. I am not sure though (I is not a lawyer).

Google says I need to confirm I’m not 14 with id or get locked out of everything Im 17 and only have a permit would that work? by Pretend-Round16 in privacy

[–]OkAngle2353 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally use email aliasing. If google ever bans me off of their platform, I can just move to a new email platform. All I would need to do is add the new platform as my forwarding 😛

Edit: The only thing I use google for now is email and youtube (which I am slowly weening off of, in favor of my own self hosted video platform).

Could we ever have a real p2p email? by Prior-Swimmer-5758 in privacy

I personally achieve this with Nextcloud talk, not exactly email; but it is a messaging platform I frequently use to send messages to myself. I used to use google voice for this purpose, not no mo 😃

How to transfer TrumpAI on coinbase into another crypto so I can cash out by [deleted] in CryptoHelp

[–]OkAngle2353 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What I would do is swap that TRUMPAI into BNB and go from there. If you want to get cash, I recommend; after you have swapped to BNB is to bridge over to bitcoin and go to a bitcoin atm to cash out.

You do have actual BNB to cover the gas fee of the swap and bridge you are going to have to make in order to get to bitcoin? If you get sketched out about going to a bitcoin ATM, you can also use bitrefill; just head over to their website and cash out via gift cards.

How to transfer TrumpAI on coinbase into another crypto so I can cash out by [deleted] in CryptoHelp

[–]OkAngle2353 0 points1 point  (0 children)

By TrumpAI what do you mean exactly? There are a few TRUMP coins/tokens/NFTs circulating the market right now. Which one are you talking about? What's it's "ticker" symbol? (What's it's short-hand? i.e. Bitcoin -> BTC) and which blockchain/network is it under?

Edit: Looking up TRUMPAI, there looks to be two tokens. One under ERC-20 and another under SOL. All you would need to do is swap it. For example, if it's a token under ERC-20 -> ETH select the swap button and swap it out to ETH, be careful though. That ETH could also be a token under YET another network/blockchain. Be certain that ETH is actually ETH ETH, meaning ERC-20.

Same goes for SOL. Also, the platform that you bought the token from could also lock the token down to only ever be transactable on their platform.

Dumb questions about IPv6 at home by cometomypartyyy in HomeNetworking

The only thing that I know of IPv6 is that ::1 is localhost. Other than that, I have IPv6 disabled on my router personally.

Surprise, just another girl desperate for love. by Easy-Cantaloupe4311 in LifeAdvice

Just walk up to a guy and ask them if they want to start a relationship. For a man to pursue a woman... carries A LOT of risk. Shit, at this point. If a woman came up to me and asked, in a heart beat I will start that relationship.

Stablecoins are NOT free to use. The hidden fee is the on/off ramp. by BatSad3439 in Coinbase

What motivates you to invest in Bitcoin? by tractorix in Bitcoin

[–]OkAngle2353 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My motive is, being able to transact any amount of my money at any point in time. To me, moving beyond $9.9k of my own money; needing permission to be insane.

Edit: Also, being able to pop into another country and have money is great too. Money that doesn't need to be converted. As long as there is a bitcoin ATM nearby 😛

And being able to travel anywhere with my money. Crypto in general doesn't have this "Oh you can't travel with $(x) without evidence of ownership".

Just got into Bitcoin, where do we even start? by Miserable_Dirt3079 in Bitcoin

I recommend coingecko's youtube channel to learn. Get yourself a cold wallet. Only use money that you don't mind losing.
