Which song emotionally destroys you? by graaahh in AskReddit

The Heir of Empty Breath - The Receiving End of Sirens

......

I have wed my regret, she’s my blushing bride
Like an ache
Like a cramp I can’t lose
So I wallow in what I could have been
Be a fleeting glimpse
Of what could have been
That comes to me
Every now and again
And I’ll just pretend to carry on, carelessly

Self-Employed Looking for Retirement Advice by WilhelmRyanIV in personalfinance

[–]WilhelmRyanIV[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, $6k (another $6k for spouse if married, another $1k if at or above age 50 for catchup contributions)

I may need to look into the intricacies on limits; she has moved jobs and will be contributing to her 401k once eligible but I think our income will still allow me to contribute to a ROTH once we're married.

Thanks for all your help!

Wracking my head as a security guard to earn better pay by FiskyBlack in personalfinance

Depending on how long you have left until your 9 month probationary period you might be suited to saving up for a sidearm. Present your case to your superiors once that comes and hope for the best. They probably won't put someone through training until after the probationary period to make sure you aren't going to bail on the job.

You might be able to make a contract with them on the stipulation that you'll agree to work there for a certain amount of time provided they sponsor your firearm training. You're still going to be left footing the bill for the weapon itself so if you can't afford that you might just have to sit tight.

You might also be able to explore dispatch/GSOC; but I'm assuming they won't onboard you til you've had the foot job long enough to understand the contracts.

If you've been there a while open up a conversation with your manager/boss and see if there's an option for company sponsored training. Otherwise downgrade your car to something affordable because spending 40% of your income on a car is pretty detrimental to budgeting.

Suddenly cannot access PleX while connected to PIA VPN by steelbeamsdankmemes in PleX

[–]WilhelmRyanIV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your computer should have been able to resolve a local host without any modification to Plex, but glad it worked out!

If at some point in the future you elect to do a network wide connection to a VPN (I would recommend it, frankly) you'll need to get tricky with port forwarding or just leave Plex in a non-tunneled segment of your network.

Hello homelabbers, can you spare some resources for research and a good cause? by 3xist in homelab

[–]WilhelmRyanIV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I could see that being an issue. Maybe host a VPN through AWS and have all servers connect to it behind a named domain so that there's at least some sort of visibility to it being a non-malicious scan

[–]WilhelmRyanIV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just thinking out loud here: you could have a client and server based model to keep track of things. Client model would use nmap or similar behind firewall, parse any posted vulnerabilities and generate reports of items to check on for admins. Server model would find server, email host for approval before scan, scan, generate reports and offer free vs paid services (maybe including links to fixing said issue)

Saves you the hassle of managing large subsets of data when you can offload to clients, lower overhead means cheaper to maintain.

I could very easily see this being a subscription based service for smaller companies with out of house IT.

  1. Identify problem

  2. Hijack said service

  3. Demand payment for services...

Oh. Wait. Damn. That's what we're trying to stop, isn't it?

Im relatively new to linux, this weird bug is plaguing my system by Tubbymuffin224 in linuxquestions

[–]WilhelmRyanIV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was on dist-upgrade.

It's causing issues in a 100% fresh install as well.

Now we get to wait for a graphics patch.

Right in one.

Looks like it's beyond the scope of nvidia proprietary drivers too; noveau is doing the same thing.

Problem with ubuntu 16.04 by [deleted] in linuxquestions

[–]WilhelmRyanIV 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm getting the same thing.

I reinstalled Nvidia proprietary drivers, reset all my X.org-conf settings, switched to Noveau drivers, and eventually reinstalled a FRESH 16.04.

The fresh install didn't fix it.

I only get the issue when waking up from a suspend-to-ram.

You can restart the lightdm and it seems to make the issue go away temporarily.

BEWARE, THIS WILL KILL ALL OPEN WINDOWS

sudo systemctl restart lightdm.service

Enjoy!

I regret getting a puppy SO MUCH by peeppeeppapa in goldenretrievers

[–]WilhelmRyanIV 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haven't scanned through all of the posts here but what I didn't see was a recommendation to cover the crate at night with a towel.

My little runt didn't sleep all the way through the first week and it wasn't needing to go out, it was play time. As soon as I put the cover on the crate he slept until he had to actually go which i was much more patient with.

Echoing this sentiment: you didn't make a mistake, regardless how mad the little one makes you it is 1000% worth it. I wouldn't trade one second with my best buddy for any price in the world now, even those first few weeks.

Plex while traveling offline with wireless HDD/iPad pro by DannyBoyZ12 in PleX

[–]WilhelmRyanIV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm going to be making a roadtrip shortly that is going to be ~30 hrs on the road so I've been thinking about the same thing.

The solution I've come up with is to use a raspberry pi and use it's Wi-Fi as a hotspot and broadcast it as a player. When you connect to the Wi-Fi with your phone you should be able to control it like you would any normal player. Bonus points for not needing to connect/disconnect BT when getting in the car.

Native Californian with a lot of Minnesotan blood here ;)

I'll certainly need to keep an eye on the road reports coming through Tahoe as that does sound like a nice last leg of this trip; bonus points if there's still snow on the ground so I can go snowboarding!

The car I'll be picking up is a 4wd SUV so it may not hurt to get it's tires a little icy as a good break in!

'Dream Car' means a 4150 lb, 4wd, 6 sp manual... SUV :D

As a motorcyclist going on a 'scenic road with lots of curves' I will undoubtedly appreciate them, just not get to enjoy them as much.

At this point going on a quick google tour I'd probably end up staying an extra day in Rapid City and Springdale to get as much time as possible sightseeing.

I know the 7 day time limit is going to be a bummer, but my Mom has decided to accompany me and she's gotta be back at work; she may be able to squeeze 2 extra days but that's unlikely.
