Is it unethical to hide that I’m the landlord?
  • Nester Nester Now 100%

    I would be honest about owning the property from the get go. Because if it ever came out that you're the owner (and it most certainly will) that would create a very awkward situation.

    In my eyes so long as you are paying for the mortgage/house loan, and not passing on passing on the burden that the tenant won't gain from then your ethically in the clear.

    As for what the tenant would pay, I see no reason not to go 50:50 on the bills with the tenant, and potentially getting them contributing to a ground rent (not sure if that's a thing outside of the UK, but it's basically where the owner of an apartment pays the owner of the building to help with upkeep).

    You might even consider a situation where you agree a monthly surplus to set aside in the event of repairs that may need to be done, agreeing that any money they put in is returned to them as the end of their tenancy if no such repairs were needed.

    At the end of the day if you have a tenant you shouldn't be extracting any value from them for your own benefit, beyond the obvious benefit of sharing living expenses.

    If anyone disagrees with me I'd really love to hear it.

  • Rich countries silencing climate protest while preaching about rights elsewhere, says study
  • Nester Nester Now 100%

    The report this article is based on is actually called "On Thin Ice: Disproportionate Responses to Climate Change Protesters in Democratic Countries"

    The title of the article is a bit misleading including the term "rich countries", especially as that term is not used once in the article.

    In my mind measuring the level of democracy is harder than the wealth of a nation.

    I could see Starmer's Labour doing this for sure; they don't want another Jeremy Corbin again, and are doing their best to rid the party of outspoken 'leftists'.

    It's funny you should say that, because my local council are currently struggling to collect bins. They haven't collected to bins for the cafe that's attached to my workplace for about 2 weeks now. It's getting grim.

    Feeling inconsistent
  • Nester Nester Now 100%

    I used to climb loads about a year ago, and I was doing quite well, for my standards at least. I enjoyed bouldering, lead-climbing and trad.

    Unfortunately I had to take a break for mental health reasons. Now I want to get back into it again, I am finding every time I go I am just getting so frustrated with how hard I find things now. But it's not that I'm finding it hard, I don't mind not completing a difficult problem, it's that I am genuinely struggling to even start some of these climbs, and it's so demoralising.

    The only climbs I can climb at the moment are the very easiest in the gym, their first level of climbs. But they are sooooo easy that I get very little satisfaction from them.

    Again, I apologise for the rambling post, I just needed to vent or I think I'd cry

    Does anyone have any tips for keeping going even when you're finding it hard to get started climbing? I'd very much appreciate any tips at all.

    Hello peoples, I am looking for tips on how to make my self-hosted setup as safe as possible. Some background: I started self-hosting some services about a year ago, using an old lenovo thin client. It's plenty powerful for what I'm asking it to do, and it's not too loud. Hardware wise I am not expecting to change things up any time soon. I am not expecting anyone to take the time to baby me through the process, I will be more than happy with some links to good articles and the like. My main problem is that there's so much information out there, I just don't know where to start or what to trust. Anyways, thank you for reading. N
