  • I have a rasberry pi 5 collecting dust, what are some neat useful things i can do with it?

  • Haha, I feel ya. Try logging into your router's admin panel and see if you can disable DHCP from there, it might fix things. (Also be prepared to to set static IP on the device you connect to the panel from in case it has issues connecting if disabling DHCP doesn't fix things or resetting your router to factory settings should also re-enable the router as the DHCP server again).

  • Any chance your pihole and router are both trying to be the DHCP server for the network?

  • It could be, alternatively if the company goes out of business tomorrow you lose.

    The question you need to ask yourself is how it will do vs other options, I'm no investor by any means but I'd be wondering:

    a) would an index fund beat it long term (historically you might see 7% annual gains on a fund that tracks NYSE over the same period)

    b) why is it trading below its face value - everyone has the same information about this bond in theory, therefore bond traders are aware of the same thing, if it was a great deal it would be in demand and the price would rise. So someone more experienced than us has accounted for the return and the risk/reward for them says $80 is right.

    c) does it beat inflation - $450 payoff seems nice now (assuming you save up all those $5s) 30 years ago it would've seemed even better, but $100 in 1997 has the spending power of $200 today - in 70 years time the $450 might have the equivalent spending power of $100 today. Which is to say your real terms return may only be $20 over 70 years.

  • I'll disagree, personally I'd have bought a Mondeo over a VAG wagon in a heartbeat if they still made them. I got talking to a salesman at my local dealership and the sentiment is basically "no-one really understands what they're doing, they've stopped making all the cars that sold well"

  • Define need. Companies will happily cut staff they need to save costs. Staff that remain then get the workload dumped upon them. Now everyone is running around half-assing everything at peak stress to try and keep the ship afloat, doing jobs they're not good at and don't enjoy poorly because someone didn't understand someone else's contribution.

  • Coupon rate is paid on the principal - assuming the hundo is accurate then it's $5/yr. If you think Motorola will be around in 14 years then you'd have your investment back. If you think they'll be around in another 70 years you get $350 + $100 because when it matures they need to repay the bond.

    That's how I started using "lol." If I wanted to be formal - but honestly on the internet it's really not necessary.

  • I'm my experience it's about a ten to one ratio of people who shit on vegans because they "never shut up about it" vs vegans who actually never shut up about it.

    A true testament to how many people they annoy.

  • The amateur requirements were primarily a method to keep the poors out of sporting events. The vast majority of those who could take the time out to properly train for an event were rich enough to not need a proper job. Allowing professionalism has opened up the playing field to the most talented - at least in theory.

  • Sen. Mitch McConnell hospitalized after experiencing 'flu-like symptoms'

    Jump

  • What in the everloving fuck. I had some kinda specific symptoms one weekend, I called the doc on Monday, he said come in this afternoon (must've been a bit worried, getting an appointment normally takes longer, I don't want to misrepresent this).

    I went in, we had a chat, he said come back tomorrow for a blood test. I dutifully went in for the test and went home. 8PM that night I got a call from an out of hours doctor, they said get yourself to A&E (emergency room). More bloods taken, I was triaged and admitted (which took about 36hrs - was a heavy time, I wasn't super urgent).

    Spent the next 5 weeks in hospital, I now have a life long condition which necessitates a lot of pills that I've been taking for a few years now.

    Total out of pocket cost £0.

    People still try to claim the US system is superior.

  • I'm not really trying to argue the point on the level of achievement - that will always be subjective. More to address the point on why local heroes don't get above OBE and to raise the absurdity of the dual use of peerages.
