I’ve been replaying my favorite turnbased jrpgs from my youth. Working my way through final fantasy, beat the first three I’m on number four now. Also playing the og bards tale. Breath of the wild and the old ultimas are next.
Great on my steam deck during long meetings.
Yea, most likely. Typically your options for getting out in order from best to worst are:
selling yourself
selling normally with a realtor
selling “as-is”/short sale normally with a realtor
burning the house down
these wholesale guys
foreclosure
though if the house is in decent shape the foreclosure can be better given the current state of the market.
I haven’t, but if you’re looking for the name, they’re called “wholesalers”. Typically they get houses that won’t sell on the market normally because they require too many fixes and aren’t safe to live in. They’re then sold to flippers.
Note, you don’t actually sell to wholesalers, you sign a contract with them to sell to the holder of the contract for the agreed upon price. Then the wholesaler sells the contract to the flipper for a flat fee.
2nd note, a lot of people think they’ll get cash once the contract is signed, that’s not the case as the wholesaler has to sell the contract. This can be adventageous if the owner is facing foreclosure. Typically you can get more money from a wholesaler/flipper, than if your house goes into foreclosure. Because the wholesaler usually has a list of flippers on the books and a sale is often just a call away.
Rogue, steal other’s shit and claim it’s mine.
I’m not saying you should trust every VPN provider. Some have shown to be nore trustworthy than others. Police have raided their datacenrers and not gotten anything (no logs). And they have gone to courts and said they don’t keep that info. However if you don’t trust your ISP, and purely use a VPN, the only info your ISP will get is that you use a VPN. Your encrypted bank packet that they saw before is now an encrypted vpn packet. The vpn will see the encrypted bank packet, but youmre right, you have to trust that they have more to gain by not looking and selling than they gain by selling your info and losing customers.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but I’m pretty sure this just encrypts your dns requests. After DNS resolution, the traffic packet headers still have destination/source ip addresses and they can reverse dns lookup the ip addresses. Might make it require a few extra steps, but they’re the ones routing the traffic. Even your VPN traffic, they can’t decrypt what’s inside the packets, but they can see your traffic going to a known Mullvad vpn address in Norway or whatever.
While your ISP can’t see everything, they can see metadata. They can see which websites you go to, which social media you use the most, where you bank, where you shop, etc. How much do you think it would take for your ISP to sell that data? If you happen to live somewhere there are laws againat that, you are slightly less at risk. Fines are only a deterrant if they’re more than what’s being offered for your data.
That being said, this only protects you against your ISP or other purely ipaddress based info gatherers. Apps/social media/websites don’t purely use ipaddresses to track you.
Was about to watch it, then read “Please watch til the end. I guarantee you will not regret it.”
If I had a nickel for every time I’ve been promised that, and regretted it, I’d be a rich man.
They can’t really make linux illegal. They’ll make selling devices without age verification illegal. Essentially making selling devices with an OS that doesn’t play ball illegal.
