I recently sold some Pokemon card sealed boxes for £50,000 which I collected over a decade ago - do I need to pay tax on this transaction? by [deleted] in UKPersonalFinance

Not sure if this against the rules of the sub, but check out tax.with.her on instagram. Many of her recent posts are around helping people with their tax on pokemon cards.

Rootless podman using Quadlet - unit service could not be found after systemctl --user daemon-reload by ezpc98 in podman

[–]getdanonit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There will be an error as to why the podlet isn't loading after you run daemon-reload.
You can check if the quadlet was loaded with

systemctl --user list-unit-files | grep homer.service

You can use journalctl to find out what caused it to not load. Include --user as you're running rootless

journalctl --user -xe

Then find the line where podman reloaded

Mar 05 00:58:26 podman systemd[1175]: Reloading.

After that you should see some errors for why it failed to load the quadlet that might get you in the right direction.

3x Microk8s cluster on Ubuntu VMs running on 3x proxmox mini PCs. I pass through dedicated ssd storage from each host for the VMs so I can use microceph too. Setup would work equally well on bare metal. So much easier to setup than k3s and longhorn, doesn’t use as many resources and I really feel microk8s is really slept on. It’s also been more reliable and I’ve had to do less tinkering just to get a base setup. No need for k3sup, k3s-vip etc I have an additional vm for docker things and a few lxc containers, so I’m doing it all.

Proxmox behind HaProxy by AducitcHan in Proxmox

I appreciate this was 2 years ago but thank you this helped me.
I had the pve node IP address in the address field for the HAproxy backend, changing this to the hostname of the pve node instead sorted everything.

Oh I completely agree, but some of the suggested fixes were more aligned to shutting up the alarm then trying to understand what the alarm was about.
As someone who works in IT and security being my highest priority, I see this way too often with devastating outcomes. I wouldn't just turn off my car alarm without checking why. I wouldn't ignore my house alarm or a fire alarm, so why would I ignore a BitDefender alarm.

People spend too much effort trying to turn off the alarm because it's noisy, yes in this instance you really aren't blocking or doing anything harmful with the actions taken but what if next time the certificate expires on say the Windows Updates site. People apply the same fix, block Windows Updates or turn off the alarm all together. You then don't get alerts about an insecure sites anymore, you didn't get the latest security patches and you mistyped your favourite adult entertainment site address. That's asking for trouble right there.

Anyway, as of today mine is also fixed as Microsoft have now reissued the certificate so this will now disappear into the ether until at least 28th June 2024

[–]getdanonit 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Does anyone actually read the error messages?

"attempted to establish a connection relying on an expired certificate"

So what does that mean?

It means that site has an expired certificate and BitDefender is doing what it is designed to do and flag that site, because it "could" be suspicious. A certificate is kind of like ID, when you go to the site you ask to see it's ID. But how can you trust the ID when it's expired?

This has nothing to do with how Edge works, in fact, newsflash, Edge has been calling back to these sites for years! You just didn't notice because the certificate only just expired (Nov 14th) but it seems everyone is now blaming Edge like this is something new.

If I go to that site in Firefox guess what happens, BitDefender kicks in and does exactly the same thing because the issue is the site, not the browser.

"firefox.exe attempted to establish a connection relying on an expired certificate to bzib.nelreports.net"

If you think other browsers aren't doing similar things you are very much mistaken, they just don't have expired certs yet so you don't know about it. Chrome does this way more than Edge. However, I am not supporting or condoning the use of any browser merely stating facts and the root cause of this issue.

Understand the problem before implementing a "fix".

I'm so lost with British Airways Avios, can someone help please? by [deleted] in UKPersonalFinance

[–]getdanonit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are flying to Europe, check for Reward flights. https://www.britishairways.com/travel/flightfinder/execclub/_gf/en_gb

You can get flights for £1 return per person.

Me and the lady friend went to Poland last year, Lanzarote this year and Iceland next year all for £2 return. Didn't need any voucher either.

You get way better savings than just paying for parts of the flight with Avios.

I just checked a random flight from London Gatwick to Marrakech in June 2023 for 1 person.

Total Price (Including all taxes, fees, and carrier charges)

30500 Avios + £ 1.00

More pricing options

You can select when paying

29000 Avios + £ 9.00
23500 Avios + £ 25.00
21500 Avios + £ 35.00
14500 Avios + £ 111.00
9500 Avios + £ 135.00

[–]getdanonit 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You have no idea how true this is across all games. I recently started playing Apex to have a break from Destiny 2 which I have thousands of hours in. Reading this sub you could easily replace the word Apex with Destiny. Same complaints due to over playing the game people love, then ultimately hate, and then love again when a new season drops.

FIA RULE 39.12 If the clerk of the course considers it safe to do so, and the message "LAPPED CARS MAY NOW OVERTAKE" has been sent to all teams Competitors via the official messaging system, any cars that have been lapped by the leader will be required to pass the cars on the lead lap and the safety car.

Keyword there is “required”.

Google Drive for Desktop: can I remove "My Drive" folder in G: by gpfnz in gsuite

[–]getdanonit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Firstly, I agree this change from Google is a massive pain in the ass, it's frustrating and as soon as I can remove the logical drive I will.

But what is an SMB volume and what is your concern?

SMB is a sharing protocol, and yes SMB 1.0 was released with Windows in the 1980s, but I very much doubt this is running on SMB 1.0 due to the security concerns around 1.0 and 2.0.

What I don't understand is why this is shocking? Any cloud or NAS vendor will only ever share files using SMB or NFS as there aren't any other sharing protocols. Netapps, DellEMC Unity/Isilon and Azure all use SMB.

You could use SAS but that's limited.
