When connected through wireguard can you access anything on the local network?

Also sometimes if you're on an LAN trying to vpn into itself you get weird network issues. Does this issue also happen when you're on another network and vpning back?

Also there's a lot of great videos on YouTube to set this up things like Lawrence systems and network Chuck.

Not exactly sure what the issue is here but gave you the up vote for visability and hopefully someone smarter then me will know.

As mentioned backblaze is a good resource as they extensively look into this very question. What I've noticed in practice is that all hard drives are pretty reliable these days. If they fail they usually fail early in the first 6 months. Regardless of what you go with always have a back up.

Yeah I think that's a fair take. Again it's not a perfect show and as you pointed out if you're expecting the x files here you'll be disappointed. I think the enjoyment of this show really comes from the chemistry and interaction with the characters. The plot has its ups and downs like many over the air tv shows. IMDB has over 46,000 reviews so I think it's hard to argue the show wasn't generally well liked, though of course it's not for everyone. This will definitely not go down as one of the best shows of all time not even close but that doesn't mean it isn't enjoyable to watch.

Question if you didn't finish watching the show then how would you know if plot points weren't resolved? I think you're confusing that for a season end cliff hanger? I'd finish the show before ranting too much. This is not a Netflix original show it aired on normal TV. I don't remember off hand but the show has been on for a few years. There's a lot of shows with an "off" season that happened around COVID or a writers strike that may be season 2 here?

I personally enjoyed the show it's not meant to be a deep thinking or life changing show just entertaining with some light scares which it accomplished. If you like the characters and their chemistry you'll enjoy the show. If you're expecting a deep thinking life changing experience here, yes you'll be disappointed. The ending is okay but didn't leave me angry and seems to close things up well enough.

I think most would enjoy the show ( though of course not everyone). I think its rating on IMDb and rotten tomatoes is fairly accurate. The show is exactly as advertised.

This is not a trolly problem. Insurance companies are companies ir they are designed to maximize profit. That is the problem. The objective of insurance companies is to make a profit not save people's lives.

Just honestly asking Im not a statistician. From a lay person looking high level this seems weird. The conclusion also does not match up with insurance prices that I've personally seen nor correspond with my experience.

I'm here for discussion not trying to put anyone down. Could someone just explain to me what I'm missing. No need to downvote. So if you take a non random sample of data how can you extrapolate that out so much? Does this data line up with other people's data? What am I missing?

I think a lot of people would disagree with you about X. Objectively he bought the company for $44B and now it's worth $9B that's a huge loss. Most people attribute the decline to his "efficiency" measures. Basically losing all the good talent in his company causing a significant decline in users ( because of quality of service). His running of Twitter I think would be a better example of a failure.

That aside hypothetically even if X was doing well - How would the strategy / approach he used in a public company be good for government. These are two very different places?

A better question would be do you have any examples of him actually creating efficiencies? I don't mean this in a condescending way but he did do a great job with Tesla but basically no where else. Every time he goes out of his wheelhouse it seems to end in disaster? Honestly I don't follow him but it's impossible not to hear about him. So can you elaborate on what his successes were and how'd that translate into making the government more efficient?

Okay a lot going on here and not really a lot of information

First thing I would check is does your motherboard have error lights? Even my computer thats 20 years old has lights that flash in patterns as booting. You use this to find out which part of the booting sequence failed, power, ram, video card, CPU etc. Find out which motherboard you have and find the owners manual. If you have SLI available it's an expensive motherboard and most likely has this feature.

Second, double check everything is plugged into the motherboard, ram all cables etc. Something may have shaken loose?

Might be worth physically inspecting the video card. That you could boot up once makes me think this failed. Maybe a capacitor on the video cap exploded or got knocked off.

Lastly try and take the 1080 out of your girlfriends computer and see if you can boot with that. This would help narrow down issues?

One more thing check if you have an igpu. Something may have failed and the motherboard switched to on board graphics. They'll be extra vga/dvi/HDMI ports on the back. Your lack of video could just be from having your display plugged into the wrong port. So try to hook up into any video out put there.

Also perplexity, chat gpt and Gemini can be helpful in trouble shooting.

Godspeed

That's exactly an instance where this would happen. Since the value of the land itself not what's built on it is valuable in this instance. Look at the value of the land near any ski resort town over the last 10 years.

[–] NameTaken@lemmy.world 7 points 4 months ago (4 children)

Okay that kind of makes sense. There is a problem though, well three.

Imagine you live in a small town. Something happens (COVID for instance) and your town becomes popular and your land value goes up. Yesterday your house was worth 100k but now it's worth 500k+. Your saying those people should essentially be forced out of their homes? To be bought up by rich people?

Additionally this means only the super rich would be able to afford homes? This tax would essentially mean only the top 1% could have a home and basically give them a free for all on any land they want. Why would we want that?

Lastly if you increased land tax by that much landlords would have to increase rent prices to offset this? So even with a govt subsidy the renter is still the person paying this increase.

Honestly I'm intrigued by this idea but once you start thinking about how it would work it falls apart. There is probably some variation of this that could work. Maybe in cities they'll be an extratax if you don't build some sort of minimum housing? But this is already pretty similar to just basic property taxes.
