My hospital has a dedicated triage room across from the registration room. Head of maintenance and head of registration have given reasons for overtaking this room and now we have two registration rooms and no actual dedicated triage area. We are typically slow enough that a patient goes straight to a room and are triaged there except when we are full, then they get triaged in the triage room and sent back to the ER lobby (with preemptives started). My manager is pissed about the decision and idk how these two directors can override her authority this way? Aren't all hospital required to have a dedicated triage area? Is there a standard written by CMS or JCAHO that anyone can share? I'm thinking about filing an anonymous complaint with both entities

If you have any questions or suggestions about Portal Peek, (features/pricing, etc.) or simply want to know more about this project, feel free to let me know here or DM me.

Yo folks,
What a crazy week and it sure has been a long almost 22 months in this journey for me personally and I imagine for many others aswell. Lots of ups and downs but finally I think we are seeing the light at the end of the tunnel.
As we have seen, DFV has been frequently tweeting the recent week and I think from looking at his tweets there are a lot of references of Red (GME) and Blue (BBBY). The Kansas City Shuffle with the blue chairs and its reference yesterday was the nail in the coffin for me that this has to be BBBY he is refering too.
Some of us thought initially that GME was involved a year ago but with the long silence some also believed there was a likelyhood of GME not being involved. I think its kinda safe to say at this stage that GME is actually involved and in my opinion it looks to be a reverse triangular merger coming up. I think ABC touched this aswell a year ago.
Whats about to happen in my opinion (NFA)

1. GME makes its own subsidiary (future TEDDY) This also aligns to the fact that RC has recently been looking for high tech programmers who can help build a online marketplace who may later be transferred over to the new subsidiary.
2. This new formed GME subsidiary will acquire the target company which is the shell corporation of us. In order for this reorginaztion to be tax free then GME have to pay us 80% of the acquiring companys voting stock. The subsidiary will also be able to absorb the NOLs.
3. The subsidiary as its absorbing us becomes a newly formed corporation operating separately from the acquiring company (GME) while still being under its ownership. Teddy is given birth and is ready to compete with Amazon.

The benefit is this type of transaction is that the target (DK-Butterfly/shell corp) liabilites isnt absorbed by the acquiring company and GME is protected from all of it. All the liabilites fall under the new subsidiary. It was also a brilliant move from the debtor to make a liquidation trust and keep the shell of Baby free/separate ready for a re-emergance at the optimal time.
The liquidating trust ties all ongoing lawsuits/debt claims to it. The creditors are also tied to liquidating trust and the chapter 11 plan as they await to be repaid in cash. And they all seem likely to be paid in full if all the ongoing lawsuits are approved. However this could take another 1-2 years to see the result of. In my estimation DK-Butterfly has rougly 3.3 bn (2.6 from the former execs, 300M from HBC and 400M from the shipping firms) in claims from lawsuits which is more than enough to pay down creditors. All while cancelling shareholders was happening as part of giving us newco shares. No need for an amended plan which wont happen this late anways.
Whats your thoughts? What typ of transaction do you think we will see?

EDIT: JUST IN GAMESTOP FILED MIXED-SECURITY SHELF REGISTRATION TO SELL SECURITIES
EDIT 2: https://investor.gamestop.com/sec-filings/sec-filing/pre-14a/0001193125-22-101866 Remember GME increased its share authorization up to 1bn stocks back in april 2022.

I have recently encountered an error where a curl to pod on node-1 is not reachable from node-0 and after some troubleshooting I found that the issue was with offloading and for the curl to work i had to run "sudo ethtool -K ens2f1 tx-checksum-ip-generic off”.
And above is on a NIC with mlx5_core driver.
The only issue with above way of changing is, the config change is not persistent across the reboots.

node-1:/etc/modprobe.d$ ethtool -i eno1 driver: mlx5_core version: 5.5-1.0.3 firmware-version: 14.32.2004 (DEL2810000034) 

I tried to make it persistent using a .conf file in /etc/modprobe.d/ as below:

node-1:/etc/modprobe.d$ cat checksum.conf options mlx5_core tx_checksum_ip_generic=0 

And once I rebooted the node, I can still see that the tx_checksum_ip_generic is not disabled:

node-1:/etc/network$ sudo ethtool -k eno1 grep generic tx-checksum-ip-generic: on generic-segmentation-offload: on generic-receive-offload: on 

Here is some additional info, if it helps in answering:

Importance of a business bank account

A business bank account is of utmost importance for launching a successful group home. It provides a dedicated financial platform to manage the financial transactions and operations of the business. With a business bank account, you can separate your personal finances from your business finances, ensuring clarity and transparency in your financial records. Additionally, having a business bank account allows you to accept payments from clients and customers, make business-related purchases, and track your business expenses more efficiently. By having a dedicated business bank account, you can demonstrate professionalism and establish credibility in the industry, which is crucial for the success of your bespoke tailoring service.

Benefits of a free business bank account

A free business bank account offers numerous benefits for your bespoke tailoring service. Firstly, it provides a dedicated account for your business finances, separating them from your personal funds. This not only helps in maintaining transparency but also simplifies bookkeeping and financial management. Additionally, a free business bank account often comes with features such as online banking, mobile banking, and the ability to accept card payments, making it convenient for your customers to pay for your services. Moreover, having a business bank account can enhance your professional image and credibility, as it demonstrates that you are a legitimate and serious business owner. Lastly, a free business bank account may offer perks such as discounted merchant services or access to business loans, which can further support the growth and success of your bespoke tailoring service.

Choosing the right bank for your bespoke tailoring service

Choosing the right bank for your bespoke tailoring service is a crucial decision that can impact the financial health and success of your business. When it comes to selecting a bank, there are several factors to consider. First and foremost, you need to ensure that the bank offers a free business bank account. This will help you save on unnecessary fees and charges, allowing you to allocate more resources towards growing your bespoke tailoring service. Additionally, it is important to choose a bank that understands the unique needs and requirements of your industry. Look for a bank that has experience working with businesses in the fashion and retail sector, as they will be better equipped to provide tailored financial solutions. Finally, consider the convenience and accessibility of the bank's services. Look for a bank that offers online banking, mobile banking, and a network of ATMs that are easily accessible to you and your customers. By carefully considering these factors, you can choose the right bank that will support the financial needs of your bespoke tailoring service.

Step 1: Researching free business bank account options

Understanding the features and limitations

Understanding the features and limitations of a free business bank account is crucial for any entrepreneur, especially those in the bespoke tailoring service industry. By comprehending the various aspects of such an account, tailors can make informed decisions about their financial management. One important consideration is the ability to handle healthcare staffing expenses efficiently. This entails understanding the features of the bank account that facilitate seamless payment processing for healthcare staffing services. Additionally, it is essential to be aware of any limitations that may exist, such as transaction limits or restrictions on certain types of healthcare staffing expenses. By having a clear understanding of these features and limitations, bespoke tailoring service providers can ensure the smooth operation of their businesses and effectively manage their financial resources.

Comparing fees and charges

When comparing fees and charges for business bank accounts, it is important to consider various factors. One such factor is the availability of group home opportunities. Group home opportunities provide a unique chance for bespoke tailoring services to expand their reach and cater to a wider audience. By offering specialized services to group homes, tailors can tap into a lucrative market and establish long-term partnerships. These partnerships can lead to increased revenue and brand recognition. Additionally, group home opportunities often come with additional benefits such as reduced fees or exclusive promotions. Therefore, it is essential for bespoke tailoring services to explore and take advantage of group home opportunities when selecting a business bank account.

Reading customer reviews and ratings

Reading customer reviews and ratings is an essential step in evaluating the quality and credibility of a business. It provides valuable insights into the experiences of previous customers and helps potential customers make informed decisions. When it comes to the bespoke tailoring service industry, staying ahead of the competition is crucial. One effective way to do this is by using a competitor tracking tool. This tool allows businesses to monitor and analyze the performance of their competitors, identify their strengths and weaknesses, and make strategic decisions based on the gathered data. By utilizing a competitor tracking tool, bespoke tailoring service providers can stay updated on the latest market trends, benchmark their own performance, and make necessary adjustments to stay competitive.

Step 2: Gathering required documents

Business registration documents

To register your bespoke tailoring service as a business, you will need to gather and submit the necessary business registration documents. These documents are essential for establishing the legal framework of your business and ensuring compliance with local regulations. The registration process typically includes obtaining a business license, registering your business name, and obtaining any required permits or certifications. It is important to carefully review the specific requirements in your jurisdiction and consult with a legal professional if needed. By completing the business registration process, you will be able to operate your bespoke tailoring service as a legitimate business entity, allowing you to provide your services to a wider audience and establish credibility in the industry.

Proof of identity and address

To open a free business bank account for your bespoke tailoring service, you will need to provide proof of identity and address. This is a necessary step to ensure the security and legitimacy of your business transactions. Proof of identity can include a valid passport, driver's license, or national ID card. For proof of address, you can provide a recent utility bill, bank statement, or government-issued document that clearly shows your name and address. By providing these documents, you can establish trust with the bank and gain access to the financial services you need to boost revenue.

Financial statements and tax returns

Financial statements and tax returns are essential components of running a successful business. These documents provide a clear and accurate picture of a company's financial health and help in making informed decisions. Financial statements include the balance sheet, income statement, and cash flow statement, which showcase the company's assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses. Tax returns, on the other hand, are filed annually and report the company's income and deductions for tax purposes. By maintaining accurate financial statements and filing tax returns diligently, businesses can ensure compliance with regulatory requirements and demonstrate transparency to stakeholders.

Step 3: Applying for a free business bank account

Completing the application form

Completing the application form is a crucial step in obtaining a free business bank account for your bespoke tailoring service. By providing accurate and detailed information, you can ensure a smooth and efficient process. One important aspect to consider is implementing effective email marketing strategies. Email marketing allows you to reach out to potential customers and build strong relationships with existing ones. By utilizing personalized and targeted emails, you can showcase your tailoring services, promote special offers, and keep customers informed about the latest trends in the industry.

Posto isto, estou a pensar iniciar aqui uma religião com base no nosso profeta, Maomé (Mohammed), que tinha várias mulheres, uma delas de 16 anos chamada Fátima (Al-Aliya).
E obviamente, vamos poder andar de M16, que é coincidentemente uma das, senão a melhor assault rifle do mundo, mas é pura coincidência, porque o M é de Maomé e o 16 a idade da sua esposa favorita. A M16 será o utensilio que utilizamos para ajudar os outros a conhecerem o nosso Deus.
O CHATGPT diz que para começar uma religião só precisamos disto:

Starting a religion that is recognized by the state involves several legal, organizational, and practical steps. Here's a general guide on how to go about it, with some variations depending on the country you're in:

Country-Specific Considerations
Different countries have different requirements and processes for recognizing a religion. Here are a few examples:

United Kingdom: To gain charitable status as a religion, you need to register with the Charity Commission and prove that your organization is established for the public benefit.
Germany: Religions can be recognized as "corporations under public law" (Körperschaft des öffentlichen Rechts) if they demonstrate a long-term presence and sufficient membership.
India: Religious organizations can register as societies under the Societies Registration Act, 1860, or as trusts under the Indian Trusts Act, 1882.
Seek Legal Advice
Given the complexity and variation in laws regarding religious recognition, it is highly advisable to seek legal advice or consult with an attorney who specializes in non-profit or religious organization law in your jurisdiction.

Amanhã à hora de almoço já tenho isto tudo definido e depois podemos andar ai a passear no metro de M16, para fins religiosos, claro.

So this is from deadiversion.usdoj.gov . How do you all interpret this? Does this mean in fact that doctors cannot prescribe across state lines? Unless they apply for a separate dea from that state? I think we’ve all accepted out of state controlled substances right ? And if this means a doctor cannot prescribe across state lines , what about transferring a refill of a c3-5? That means I would be recognizing an out of state dea in my pharmacy . What’s your take on this? Obviously I know c2 will be the strictest (no verbal confirmations) , but what the dea is saying here makes it sound like it applies to all controlled substances.

As Reddit doesn't allow posts to exceed 40,000 characters, Eastwood's edition had to be split into two parts because his whole career cannot be ignored. The first part was posted yesterday.

Million Dollar Baby (2004)¨

"Beyond his silence, there is a past. Beyond her dreams, there is a feeling. Beyond hope, there is a memory. Beyond their journey, there is a love."
His 25th film. Based on stories from the 2000 collection Rope Burns: Stories from the Corner by F.X. Toole, it stars Eastwood, Hilary Swank and Morgan Freeman. The film follows Margaret "Maggie" Fitzgerald, an underdog amateur boxer who is helped by an underappreciated boxing trainer to achieve her dream of becoming a professional.
Paul Haggis wrote the script on spec, and it took four years to sell it. The film was stuck in development hell for years before it was shot. Several studios rejected the project even when Eastwood signed on as actor and director. Even Warner Bros., Eastwood's longtime home base, would not agree to a $30 million budget. Eastwood persuaded Lakeshore Entertainment's Tom Rosenberg to put up half the budget (as well as handle foreign distribution), with Warner Bros. contributing the rest.
The film had an incredible run in limited release, breaking many records for Eastwood's career. It eventually earned a fantastic $216 million worldwide, becoming his highest grossing film ever. It received critical acclaim, and it was named as one of his greatest films. It won four Oscars: Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actress (for Swank), and Best Supporting Actor (for Freeman). Eastwood became one of the very few directors to make two films to win both Best Picture and Best Director.

• Budget: $30,000,000.
  
• Domestic gross: $100,492,203. ($166.8 million adjusted)
  
• Worldwide gross: $216,763,646.
  

Flags of Our Fathers (2006)

"A single shot can end the war."
His 26th film. Based on the book written by James Bradley and Ron Powers, it stars Ryan Phillippe, Jesse Bradford, Adam Beach, John Benjamin Hickey, John Slattery, Paul Walker, Jamie Bell, Barry Pepper, Robert Patrick and Neal McDonough. The film follows the 1945 Battle of Iwo Jima, the five Marines and one Navy corpsman who were involved in raising the flag on Iwo Jima, and the after effects of that event on their lives.
The film received positive reviews, but it bombed at the box office with just $65 million against its huge $90 million budget.

• Budget: $90,000,000.
  
• Domestic gross: $33,602,376. ($52.2 million adjusted)
  
• Worldwide gross: $65,900,249.
  

Letters from Iwo Jima (2006)

"The completion of the Iwo Jima saga."
His 27th film. Based on Picture Letters from Commander in Chief by Tadamichi Kuribayashi, it stars Ken Watanabe, Kazunari Ninomiya, Tsuyoshi Ihara, Ryō Kase and Shidō Nakamura. It's a companion film to Flags of Our Fathers, and portrays the Battle of Iwo Jima from the perspective of the Japanese soldiers.
In the process of reading about the Japanese perspective of the war for Flags of Our Fathers, in particular General Tadamichi Kuribayashi, Eastwood decided to film a companion piece with this film, which was shot entirely in Japanese. The film was shot back-to-back, starting filming just one month after Flags of Our Fathers wrapped filming.
Despite being seen as the least accessible of both films, this film was much more successful at the box office than the previous film (including a colossal $42 million in Japan alone). It also received critical acclaim, particularly for how it handed the depiction of good and evil from both sides. It received 4 Oscar nominations, including Best Picture and Best Director.

• Budget: $19,000,000.
  
• Domestic gross: $13,756,082. ($21.3 million adjusted)
  
• Worldwide gross: $68,673,228.
  

Changeling (2008)

"To find her son, she did what no one else dared."
His 28th film. It stars Angelina Jolie and John Malkovich, and is based on real-life events, specifically the 1928 Wineville Chicken Coop murders in Mira Loma, California. It follows a woman united with a boy who she realizes is not her missing son. When she tries to demonstrate that to the police and city authorities, she is vilified as delusional, labeled as an unfit mother and confined to a psychiatric ward.
The film earned $113 million worldwide, barely breaking even at the box office. The film received mixed reviews, but Jolie received praise for her performance. She was nominated for the Oscar for Best Actress.

• Budget: $55,000,000.
  
• Domestic gross: $35,739,802. ($52 million adjusted)
  
• Worldwide gross: $113,398,237.
  

Gran Torino (2008)

"Ever come across somebody you shouldn't have messed with?"
His 29th film. It stars Eastwood, and follows Walt Kowalski, a recently widowed Korean War veteran alienated from his family and angry at the world, whose young neighbor, Thao Vang Lor, is pressured by his cousin into stealing Walt's prized Ford Torino for his initiation into a gang. Walt thwarts the theft and subsequently develops a relationship with the boy and his family.
The film received great reviews, as well as praise from the Hmong community. It ended up becoming a sleeper hit, and it earned $270 million worldwide, becoming his highest grossing film.

• Budget: $25,000,000.
  
• Domestic gross: $148,095,302. ($215.6 million adjusted)
  
• Worldwide gross: $269,958,228.
  

Invictus (2009)

"His people needed a leader. He gave them a champion."
His 30th film. It stars Morgan Freeman and Matt Damon. Following the aftermath of the apartheid, President Nelson Mandela decides to unite his people by supporting a rugby team in their bid to win the 1995 Rugby World Cup.
The film earned $122 million worldwide, barely breaking even. It received positive reviews, and Freeman and Damon received Oscar nominations for their performances.

• Budget: $50,000,000.
  
• Domestic gross: $37,491,364. ($54.7 million adjusted)
  
• Worldwide gross: $122,426,792.
  

Hereafter (2010)

"Touched by death. Changed by life."
His 31st film. It stars Matt Damon, Cécile de France, Bryce Dallas Howard, Lyndsey Marshal, Jay Mohr and Thierry Neuvic. An American with a special connection to the afterlife, a woman with a near-death experience and a young English boy, who lost his loved ones, cross paths in an effort to find closure in their lives.
Despite mixed reviews, it managed to earn $107 million, turning a small profit.

• Budget: $50,000,000.
  
• Domestic gross: $32,746,941. ($47 million adjusted)
  
• Worldwide gross: $106,956,330.
  

J. Edgar (2011)

"The most powerful man in the world."
His 32nd film. The film stars Leonardo DiCaprio, Armie Hammer, Naomi Watts, Josh Lucas, and Judi Dench, and follows the career of FBI director J. Edgar Hoover, focusing on Hoover's life from the 1919 Palmer Raids onward.
The film received mixed reviews; while DiCaprio received praise, the technical aspects of the film were criticized. It earned $84 million, making it a box office success, but far below what DiCaprio usually makes at the box office.

• Budget: $35,000,000.
  
• Domestic gross: $37,306,030. ($52 million adjusted)
  
• Worldwide gross: $84,920,539.
  

Jersey Boys (2014)

"Everybody remembers it how they need to."
His 33rd film. Base on the 2004 jukebox musical, it stars John Lloyd Young, Erich Bergen, Michael Lomenda, Vincent Piazza and Christopher Walken, and tells the story of the musical group The Four Seasons.
It received mixed reviews, with praise for the musical numbers but criticism for the narrative and runtime, and failed at the box office.

• Budget: $40,000,000.
  
• Domestic gross: $47,047,013. ($62.3 million adjusted)
  
• Worldwide gross: $67,647,013.
  

American Sniper (2014)

"The most lethal sniper in U.S. history."
His 34th film. It is based on the memoir by Chris Kyle, Scott McEwen and Jim DeFelice, and stars Bradley Cooper and Sienna Miller. The film follows the life of Kyle, who became the deadliest marksman in U.S. military history with 255 kills from four tours in the Iraq War, 160 of which were officially confirmed by the Department of Defense. While Kyle was celebrated for his military successes, his tours of duty took a heavy toll on his personal and family life.
In 2012, Cooper and Warner Bros. bought the rights to the memoir. Cooper wanted Chris Pratt to star as Kyle, but WB told him they would only greenlight the film if he stars in it. After Kyle's murder in 2013, Steven Spielberg signed to direct. Spielberg had read Kyle's book, though he desired to have a more psychological conflict present in the screenplay so an "enemy sniper" character could serve as the insurgent sharpshooter who was trying to track down and kill Kyle. Spielberg's ideas contributed to the development of a lengthy screenplay approaching 160 pages. Due to Warner Bros.' budget constraints, Spielberg felt he could not bring his vision of the story to the screen. So Eastwood was brought in to direct.
The film attained a solid, but not extraordinary response from critics. It also attracted some controversy over its portrayal of both the Iraq War and Kyle himself.
The box office though?
To say that the film had a fantastic run would be selling it short.
It opened on Christmas Day in 4 theaters, and it earned a huge $633,456 ($158,364 PTA). But the following weekend, it actually increased despite playing at the same amount of theaters, adding $676,909. That translated to a $169,227 PTA, becoming the highest second weekend PTA in history for a live-action film. And on its third weekend, it earned $579,518 ($144,879 PTA), becoming the first film to have three weekends above $100,000 PTA. In the 22 days it played in just 4 theaters, it earned $3,424,778.
On its first wide weekend, the film shook the industry by opening with a colossal $89 million. That was almost as much as the other 2014 blockbusters, and given that the film didn't have 3D pricing, it's very likely it sold far more tickets than them. It broke the January opening weekend record by twice as much, and the second biggest for an R-rated title. With insane word of mouth ("A+" on CinemaScore), this film had the legs. In less than one week, it became Eastwood's highest grossing film domestically. On its second weekend, it dropped just 28% and made $64 million, which was the biggest second weekend for an R-rated film (a record it still maintains) and crossed $200 million domestically. And by March, the film overtook The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 1 ($334 million) as the highest grossing 2014 film in North America.
After an insane run in theaters, it closed with a gigantic $350 million domestically, which made it the second highest grossing R-rated film in North America. Overseas, it was also very strong, and it made a huge $547 million worldwide. It was easily Eastwood's highest grossing film, even adjusted for inflation. One of the greatest box office runs in recent memory.
The biggest surprise of the 2010s? Perhaps. Cause let's face it, when 2014, did any of you had this as the top film of the year? Or even in the Top 20? Please.

Sully (2016)

"The untold story behind the miracle on the Hudson."
His 35th film. Based on the autobiography Highest Duty by Chesley "Sully" Sullenberger and Jeffrey Skiles, it stars Tom Hanks, Aaron Eckhart, Laura Linney, Anna Gunn, Autumn Reeser, Holt McCallany, and Jamey Sheridan. The film follows Sullenberger's 2009 emergency landing of US Airways Flight 1549 on the Hudson River, in which all 155 passengers and crew survived and the subsequent publicity and investigation.
The film received strong reviews, and earned over $240 million worldwide, becoming one of his highest grossing films.

• Budget: $60,000,000.
  
• Domestic gross: $125,070,033. ($163.3 million adjusted)
  
• Worldwide gross: $243,870,033.
  

The 15:17 to Paris (2018)

"The real heroes."
His 36th film. Based on the autobiography by Jeffrey E. Stern, Spencer Stone, Anthony Sadler, and Alek Skarlatos, it stars Stone, Sadler, and Skarlatos as themselves and follows the trio through life leading up to and including their stopping of the 2015 Thalys train attack.
Despite choosing Kyle Gallner, Jeremie Harris and Alexander Ludwig as the leads, Eastwood decided to cast the heroes to play themselves, which was met with confusion as they lacked acting experience. And that was reflected on the final film; it received negative reviews for its acting, and it bombed at the box office.

• Budget: $30,000,000.
  
• Domestic gross: $36,276,286. ($45.2 million adjusted)
  
• Worldwide gross: $57,176,286.
  

The Mule (2018)

"Nobody runs forever."
His 37th film. Based on the 2014 The New York Times article The Sinaloa Cartel's 90-Year-Old Drug Mule by Sam Dolnick, it stars Eastwood, Bradley Cooper, Laurence Fishburne, Michael Peña, Dianne Wiest, and Andy García. Due to financial issues, horticulturist Earl Stone becomes a courier for a drug cartel. Slowly, he grows closer to his estranged family, but his illegal activities threaten much more than his life.
It received good reviews (although some questioned its story and tone), and earned over $173 million worldwide.

• Budget: $50,000,000.
  
• Domestic gross: $103,804,407. ($129.6 million adjusted)
  
• Worldwide gross: $174,804,407.

The Verdict

Hope you liked this edition. You can find this and more in the wiki for this section.
The next director will be Robert Zemeckis. One of the biggest falls from grace.
I asked you to choose who else should be in the run and the comment with the most upvotes would be chosen. It had to be a controversial filmmaker. Well, we'll later talk about... Zack Snyder. Oh, BoxOffice chose fuego 🔥
This is the schedule for the following four:

Week	Director	Reasoning
May 20-26	Robert Zemeckis	Can we get old Zemeckis back?
May 27-June 2	Richard Donner	An influential figure of the 70s and 80s.
June 3-9	Ang Lee	What happened to Lee?
June 10-16	Zack Snyder	RIP Inbox.

Who should be next after Snyder? That's up to you.

Hi! First time posting on Reddit so bear with me if I'm overstepping any protocols here. I think what I'm sharing is allowed since I'm not buying/selling anything and am just seeking advice.
I've been looking for Taylor Swift tickets on StubHub and found 1 that would be doable for me. I actually messaged the seller on a separate social platform to suss out if they seemed like a bot or not, and they seem normal enough. They also shared a screenshot of their initial order confirmation email.
A few things that stand out to me:

1. I know better than to ever fully trust a screenshot but there's only so much verification that can be provided. Just trying to strike a reasonable balance between scam vs. real.
2. This person is a "trader" on StubHub and seems to operate through their own LTD company. I guess that's semi-comforting but also... is it? Feel like there are loopholes regardless of whether it's an individual seller or a "ticketing business".
3. The screenshot attached is clearly of a Ticketmaster resale ticket, but I'm not too concerned with that aspect. Seems like a slim chance for one of the fan-to-fan resales to be fake.
4. Where I started to hesitate is the VIP information included in the body of the email. There's no VIP noted on the ticket listing in StubHub, and I thought that Taylor's VIP packages had very specific names in the UK - "Karma Is My Boyfriend" etc. Wouldn't that be listed here somewhere?

Super curious what y'all think!

Cisco Router Security
What are the two access privilege modes of the Cisco router?
User EXEC Mode: This is the initial access mode for a router. In this mode, the user can access only a limited set of basic monitoring commands.
Privileged EXEC Mode: This mode provides access to all router commands, such as debugging and configuration commands. It requires a password for access to ensure security.
What is the approach for password for the privileged mode of the router?
enable secret [password]
uses hashing algorithm so that the password is not in plain text but encrypted
How to ensure that all passwords in the router are stored in the encrypted form?
service password-encryption
What is the difference between the Cisco router’s startup and running configurations?
How to save the running configuration into start up configuration?
Startup Configuration: Stored in the NVRAM, this configuration is used to boot the router. It remains unchanged until an administrator explicitly saves the running configuration to it.
Running Configuration: Held in the router’s RAM, this configuration is active on the router. Changes to the router’s configuration are made here and are effective immediately.
Know and be able to configure all aspects of the Cisco router covered in class. For example,
configuring the router interfaces, setting the router OSPF ID, etc.

Practical Routing, OSPF, and Security
What is the difference between static and dynamic routing?
Static Routing: Involves manually setting up routes in the router's routing table through configuration commands. These routes do not change unless manually updated or removed. Static routing is simple, secure, and uses less bandwidth but lacks scalability and flexibility.
Dynamic Routing: Automatically adjusts routes in the routing table based on current network conditions using routing protocols. This approach allows for more flexibility, scalability, and fault tolerance, but consumes more resources and can be complex to configure.
What is the difference between link state and distance vector routing?
Distance Vector Routing: Routers using distance vector protocols calculate the best path to a destination based on the distance and direction (vector) to nodes. Updates are shared with neighboring routers at regular intervals or when changes occur. This approach can lead to slower convergence and issues like routing loops.
Link State Routing: Each router learns the entire network topology by exchanging link-state information. Routers then independently calculate the shortest path to every node using algorithms like Dijkstra’s. This results in quicker convergence and fewer routing loops.
Distance Vector Routing: Each router computes distance from itself to its next immediate neighbors. (RIP, EIGRP, & BGP)
-Does not build a full map of the network
-Focuses more on the next hop towards the destination
Link State Routing: Each router shares knowledge of its neighbors with every other router in the network. (OSPF and IS-IS)
-Builds a full map of the network
-Each router shares information
-Maintains a database of the entire network.
Give an example of the distance vector and link state algorithms.
Distance = RIPLink State = OSPF
What type of protocol is Routing Information Protocol (RIP)? Be able to understand
examples and solve problems.
Example of a distance vector protocol
dynamic protocol
-shares routing info with neighboring routers
-an interior gateway protocol that operates within autonomous system
-oldest of all dynamic protocol; RIPv1
-widely used open standard developed by IETF
-a distance vector routing protocol
-limited to maximum 15 hops;

 how rip works -rip sends regular update message (advertisements to neighboring routers) 

-every 30 seconds that resets after each successful ack
-route becomes invalid if it has not received a message for 180 seconds
-RIPv1 (obsolete) uses broadcast, while RIPv2 uses a multicast address -Update message only travel to a single hop
downside : limitations, each router in its table can only have one entry per destination. Have to wait for advertisement for an alternative path, cannot reach hops 15 paths away, little to no security.
What type of protocol is Open Shortest Paths First (OSPF) protocol? Be able to under-
stand examples and solve problems.

• an interior gateway protocol that operates within autonomous systems to build a full map of the network.
  
• widely used open standard developed by IETF
  

-a link state routing protocol

 intra as routing with RIP 

What is the Link State Advertisement (LSA) in OSPF? What is the Link State Database
(LSDB)?
-LSA contains data about a router, its subnets, and some other network information.-OSPF puts all the LSAs from different routers into a Link-State Database (LSDB)
The goal of OSPF is to be able to determine a complete map of the interior routing path to be able to create the best route possible.
The way this is done is that OSPF finds all the routers and subnets that can be reached within the entire network. The result is that each router will have the same information about the network by sending out LSA.
How does each router in OSPF create a map of the entire network?
Step 1 : Acquire neighbor relationship to exchange network information.
Step 2: Exchange database information, neighboring routers swap LSDB information with each other
Step 3: Choosing the best routes, each router chooses the best routes to add to its routing table based on the learned LSDB information.
What is the process for two OSPF routers to become neighbors?
A. a neighbor sends out a Hello packet including the router ID along with subnets that it routes to the given multicast address to a given OSPF area ID.

this is also a way for routers to tell neighbors that they are still on and good to go. 

B. Once other routers receive this packet, they run some checks. The neighboring routers must match the following requirements:
-area id needs to be the same (also used when scaling up OSPF)
-the shared or connecting link should be on the same subnet.
-The Hello and dead timer must be the same.
-the dead timer is having enogh time before the sending router assumes that the neighbor is down.
-this timer is typically 10 secs for point-to-point and broadcast networks.
C. If all is fine, the receiving router will go into Init stage and sends a hello message of its own. This Hello packet list its own network info along with the known neighbor R1. This puts R1 into a 2-way communication status.
D. R1 sends another Hello message to R2 with the information as a known neighbor. This allows the R2 now with a 2-way communication status as well.E. We now have a 2-way neighboring routers
What is the difference between point-to-point and multi-access networks? How does OSPF
handle each case?

Point-to-Point: A network setup where each connection is between two specific nodes or devices. OSPF treats these links with straightforward neighbor relationships since there are only two routers on each segment. 

Multi-Access Networks: Networks where multiple routers can connect on the same segment, such as Ethernet. OSPF uses a Designated Router (DR) and a Backup Designated Router (BDR) on these types of networks to reduce the amount of OSPF traffic and the size of the topological database.
DR selected by the highest OSPF prio.
Be able to configure OSPF routing given a topology.
–
Example:
Consider a topology with three routers R1, R2, and R3. The routers
are connected R1 =⇒R2 =⇒R3 =⇒R1.
R1 has interface f0/0 connected to the
interface f0/0 of R2. R2 has interface f0/1 connecting to the interface f0/0 of R3.
Finally R3 has interface 1/0 connecting to the interface 1/0 of R3. Assuming all
routers are Cisco 7200 routers, configure them to use OSPF to dynamically route in
this topology (you will be given the Cisco router manual for such questions).

How does OSPF authenticate packets to protect against packet spoofing and tempering?
Be able to enable it a Cisco router.
OSPF (Open Shortest Path First) can authenticate packets to protect against packet spoofing and tampering using several methods. The two main types of authentication are:
Plain Text Authentication: This is simple and provides minimal security. It sends the password in clear text.
Message Digest 5 (MD5) Authentication: This provides stronger security by using cryptographic hash functions to authenticate OSPF packets.

Network Defense Fundamentals
•
What is IP spoofing? Explain.
-The ip packet contains the source and destination Ip addresses.-Is it straightforward to modify the ip address of the packet.
-IP Spoofing: sender chagrin his source address to something other than his real address.
How can IP spoofing be used in security attacks?
-If the attacker sends an Ip packet with a spoofed IP, they will not receive a response form the destination: the machine with the IP matching the spoofed IP will receive the response.Ip spoofing operation - the sender spoofs the source IP address to point to another target. The receiver system replies to the spoofed IP.
•
What are the countermeasures to IP spoofing?
Ingress and Egress Filtering: Network operators should implement filtering rules on routers and firewalls to block packets with source IP addresses that should not originate from those networks. Ingress filtering blocks incoming packets with a source IP address that is not valid for the network, while egress filtering blocks outgoing packets with an invalid source IP address.
Reverse Path Forwarding (RPF): This technique ensures that the incoming packets are received on the same interface that the router would use to send traffic back to the source. If the path does not match, the packet is discarded, preventing spoofed packets from passing through.
IPsec (Internet Protocol Security): IPsec can be used to authenticate and encrypt IP packets, ensuring that they come from legitimate sources and have not been tampered with. This makes spoofing attacks significantly more difficult.
How can IP spoofing be used to perform DoS attacks?
IP spoofing is often used in Denial of Service (DoS) attacks to obscure the attacker's identity and to overwhelm the target with traffic from what appears to be multiple sources. One common type of DoS attack that utilizes IP spoofing is a Smurf Attack. In a Smurf Attack, the attacker sends ICMP (Internet Control Message Protocol) echo requests to broadcast addresses of networks, with the source IP address spoofed to that of the victim. The devices on the network respond to the echo requests, sending replies back to the victim's IP address. This amplifies the traffic directed at the victim, potentially overwhelming their network and causing a DoS condition.

Firewalling
What is a firewall?
a filtering device on a network that enforces network security policy and protects the network against external attacks.
According to NIST SP 800-41, what are the characteristics of a firewall?
NIST standard defines the possible characteristics that a firewall can use to filter traffic.
-(IP Address and Protocol type) filtering based on source/destination IP address/ports, traffic direction and other transport layer characteristics.
-(Application Protocols)controls access based on application protocol data
-(User identity) controls access based on user identity
-(Network activity)
What are the limitations of the firewall?
Firewall capabilities: -Define a traffic chokepoint in the network and protects against IP spoofing and routing attacks
-Provide a location for monitoring the security events -Provide non-security functions: loggin internet usage, network address translation-Serve as platform for VPN/IPSec
Firewall limitations:-protect against attacks bypassing the firewall, connections from inside the organization to the outside that do not go through the firewall.-protect against internal threats such as disgruntled employees.
What is a packet filter firewall? Be able to write and interpret rules and to spot configu-
rationflaws.
Packet filtering firewall : applies a set of rules to each packet based on the packet headers.Filters based on: source/destination IP, source/destination port numbers, IP Protocol Field:defines the transport protocol, Interface : for firewalls with 3+ network interfaces, the interface from which the packet came from/going to
•
What is the difference between the default and allow and default deny policies? Which
one is the more secure one?
-when no rules apply to a packet, a default rule is applied: default deny : what is not explicitly permitted is denied default forward : what is not explicitly denied is allowed
default deny is more secure, you dont have to identify all of the cases that needs to be blocked, if one is missed, default deny will deny it.
Port 0-1023 reserved
1024-2**17 ephemeral
source port used by the system initialiatizng a connection is always chosen from the ephemeral ports
Be able to configure the packet filtering functions of iptables.

Write iptables rules to block all ICMP traffic to and from the system.
iptables -A INPUT -p icmp -j DROP
iptables -A OUTPUT -p icmp -j DROP
Example:
Write iptables rules to block all traffic on port 22
iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --sport 22 -j DROP
iptables -A OUTPUT -p tcp --dport 22 -j DROP

Example:
Write iptables rules to block traffic to host 192.168.2.2
iptables -A OUTPUT -p tcp --dest 192.168.2.2 -j DROP
iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --src 192.168.2.2 -j DROP
What are the limitations of the packet filter firewall?
-does not examine upper layer data : cannot prevent attacks that employ application specfic vulnerabilities or functions.cannot block application specific commands.

What is the stateful firewall and how does it compare to a packet filter?
A stateful firewall is a network security device that monitors and tracks the state of active connections, making decisions based on the context of the traffic. Unlike a simple packet filter, which examines individual packets in isolation based on predetermined rules, a stateful firewall keeps track of connections over time, distinguishing between legitimate packets that are part of an established session and potentially malicious ones. This contextual awareness allows it to block unauthorized connection attempts and prevent attacks such as spoofing and session hijacking. While packet filters, or stateless firewalls, operate faster and consume fewer resources by applying static rules to each packet independently, they lack the sophisticated traffic pattern handling and enhanced security provided by stateful firewalls.
•
What is the application-level firewall? What are its advantages and limitations?
An application-level firewall, also known as an application firewall or proxy firewall, operates at the application layer of the OSI model. It inspects and filters traffic based on the specific application protocols (e.g., HTTP, FTP, DNS) rather than just IP addresses and port numbers. limitations : increased communications overhead due to two separate TCP connections

 and not transparent to the client 

Application-level gateways are also known as application-level proxies.
-act as a relay for the application-level traffic.
-runs at the application layer, and examines application-layer data
Supported ProtocolsFTPSTMPHTTP
What is a circuit-level firewall? What are its advantages and limitations?
-Similar to the application-level gateway, but only tracks the state of the TCP/UDP sessions.
-Does not examine application data , simply relays TCP segments
-Allow/deny decisions based on whether a packet belongs to an established and trusted connection
Advantage of circuit-level firewall -do not filter individual packets(simplifies rules)

-fast and efficient 

Disadvantages:

-do not filter individual packets -require frequent updates: traffic is filtered with rules and policies that need regular updates for new threats and risks -the vendor needs to modify the TCP/IP implementation for thor applications to use the circuit-level proxy. 

What are the different approaches to basing the firewall?

-stand-alone machines -software modules in roosters, switches, or servers, or pre-configured security appliances. 

What are the host-based firewalls?
Host-based firewalls: a firewall software module used to secure a single host.
What are the network device firewalls?
Network device firewall = routers and switches often have firewall functions, like packet filtering and stateful inspection, to check and filter packets
What are the virtual firewalls?
-in a virtualized environment, servers, switches, and routers can be virtualized and share physical hardware. The hypervisor that manages the virtual machines can also have firewall capabilities.
What is the DMZ? How is it used for securing networks?
A Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) in network security is a physical or logical subnetwork that contains and exposes an organization's external-facing services to an untrusted network, typically the internet. The primary purpose of a DMZ is to add an additional layer of security to an organization's local area network (LAN). By isolating these externally accessible services, the DMZ ensures that if an attacker gains access to the public-facing systems, they do not have direct access to the rest of the network.
How the DMZ Secures Networks
Isolation of Public Services: Services that need to be accessible from the outside, such as web servers, mail servers, FTP servers, and DNS servers, are placed in the DMZ. These services are isolated from the internal network, which helps protect the internal systems from attacks that may exploit vulnerabilities in the public-facing services.
Controlled Access: Firewalls are used to create boundaries between the internet, the DMZ, and the internal network. The firewall rules are configured to allow only specific types of traffic to and from the DMZ. For example, incoming web traffic might be allowed to reach a web server in the DMZ, but not to access internal systems directly.
Minimal Exposure: Only the necessary services are exposed to the internet. This minimizes the attack surface, reducing the number of entry points that an attacker can exploit. Internal systems and data remain protected behind the additional layer of the firewall.
Layered Security: The DMZ provides an additional layer of defense (defense-in-depth). Even if an attacker manages to compromise a server in the DMZ, the internal network is still protected by another firewall, making it harder for the attacker to penetrate further.
Monitoring and Logging: Activities within the DMZ can be closely monitored and logged. Any suspicious behavior can be detected early, and appropriate actions can be taken to mitigate potential threats before they impact the internal network.
Traffic Filtering: The firewalls between the internet and the DMZ, as well as between the DMZ and the internal network, can filter traffic based on IP addresses, ports, and protocols. This filtering ensures that only legitimate traffic is allowed and that malicious traffic is blocked.
-if attacker compromises a server on the network, they will be able to pivot to other systems on the network.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of having the two DMZ firewalls be from
different vendors?
Using different firewall manufacturers for the two firewalls maybe a good idea, avoids possibility of both having the same vulnerability but introduces more complexity and management overhead.

Penetration Testing
•
What is penetration testing?
-legal and suthorzied attempt to locate and exploit vulnerable systems for the purpose of making those systems more secure.

pen testing, pt, hacking, ethical hacking, whitehate hacking, offensive security, red teaming 

What is the objective of the penetration testing?

Use tools and techniques used by the attackers in order to discover security vulnerabilities before the attackers do. 

What is the BAD pyramid?

The purpose of a red team is to find ways to improve the blue team, so purple teams should not be needed in an organization where the red/blue teams interaction is healthy and functioning properly. 

red attack
purple defender changes based off attack knowledge
blue defend
green builder changes based on defender knowledge
yellow build
orange builder changes based on attacker knowledge
Why are the penetration tests conducted?
-a company may want to have a stronger understanding of their security footprint.

-system policy shortcomings -network protocol weaknesses -network/software misconfigurations -software vulnerabilities 

What is the difference between penetration testing and vulnerability assessment?
-two terms often incorrectly ,interchangeably used in practice.
-vulnerability assessment : review of systems services to find potential vulnerabilities-penetration testing: finding an exploiting system vulnerabilities as proof-of-concept
What is the difference between black-box, white-box, and grey-box testing.
Black-Box Testing
Tester Knowledge: The tester has no knowledge of the internal structure, code, or implementation details of the system.
-lack knowledge of system
White-Box Testing
Tester Knowledge: The tester has full knowledge of the internal structure, code, and implementation details of the system.
-very thorough , but not completely realistic
Grey-Box Testing
Tester Knowledge: The tester has partial knowledge of the internal structure, code, or implementation details of the system.
What is the difference between ethical and unethical hackers?
-penetration testers, with proper authorization of the company, help improve the security of the company.
-unethical hackers, personal gain through extortion or other devious methods, profit, revenge, fame, etc. No authorization to conduct the attacks
•Ethical vs unethical hacking, penetration testers: obtain the authorization from the organization whose systems they plan to attack unethical hackers: attack without authorization.
Know the stages of penetration testing and the importance of following a structured ap-
proach.
–
Planning and Reconnaissance:
Planning: Define the scope and goals of the test, including the systems to be tested and the testing methods.
Reconnaissance: Gather information about the target, such as IP addresses, domain names, and network infrastructure, to understand how to approach the test.
Scanning:
Purpose: Identify potential entry points and vulnerabilities in the target system.
Methods: Use tools to scan for open ports, services running on those ports, and known vulnerabilities.
Gaining Access:
Purpose: Attempt to exploit identified vulnerabilities to gain unauthorized access to the system.
Techniques: Use techniques like password cracking, SQL injection, or exploiting software vulnerabilities.
Maintaining Access:
Planning and Reconnaissance:
Purpose: Ensure continued access to the compromised system to understand the potential impact of a prolonged attack.
Methods: Install backdoors or use other methods to maintain control over the system.
Analysis and Reporting:
Scanning
Purpose: Document the findings, including vulnerabilities discovered, methods used, and the level of access achieved.
Report: Provide a detailed report to the organization, highlighting the risks and recommending steps to mitigate the vulnerabilities.
Remediation:
Gaining Access
Purpose: Address and fix the identified vulnerabilities to improve the security of the system.
Action: Implement the recommended security measures from the report to protect against future attacks.
Retesting:
Maintaining Access
Purpose: Verify that the vulnerabilities have been successfully remediated.
Process: Conduct a follow-up test to ensure that the fixes are effective and no new issues have been introduced.
Importance of Following a Structured Approach
Consistency: A structured approach ensures that each stage is systematically followed, making the testing thorough and reliable.
Comprehensiveness: Following each stage helps identify and address all potential vulnerabilities, leaving no gaps in the security assessment.
Documentation: A structured method produces detailed documentation, which is crucial for understanding the security posture and for future reference.
Effectiveness: It ensures that the penetration test effectively mimics real-world attack scenarios, providing valuable insights into how an actual attacker might exploit vulnerabilities.
Risk Management: By identifying and addressing vulnerabilities, organizations can proactively manage security risks and protect their assets from potential attacks.
Example:
What is the difference between the passive and active reconnaissance?
•
Passive Reconnaissance
Definition: Gathering information about the target without directly interacting with the target system or network. The aim is to collect data without alerting the target.
Methods:
Publicly Available Information: Searching for information that is freely available on the internet, such as social media profiles, company websites, and news articles.
DNS Queries: Looking up domain registration information (WHOIS data), DNS records, and IP address ranges.
Network Traffic Analysis: Capturing and analyzing network traffic without sending packets to the target (e.g., using tools like Wireshark in a non-intrusive manner).
Search Engines: Using search engines to find information about the target, such as employee names, email addresses, and technical details.
Advantages:
Low Risk: Minimizes the chance of detection by the target because no direct interaction occurs.
Stealth: Suitable for the early stages of reconnaissance when the goal is to remain undetected.
Disadvantages:
Limited Information: May not provide as much detailed or specific information about vulnerabilities or configurations as active reconnaissance.
Active Reconnaissance
Definition: Actively engaging with the target system or network to gather information. This involves direct interaction, such as sending packets or probing the target.
Methods:
Network Scanning: Using tools like Nmap to scan for open ports, running services, and network topology.
Vulnerability Scanning: Running vulnerability scanners (e.g., Nessus, OpenVAS) to identify known weaknesses in the target systems.
Social Engineering: Directly interacting with individuals (e.g., phishing attacks) to gather information.
Probing and Enumerating: Sending specific queries or packets to the target to elicit responses that reveal information about the system (e.g., banner grabbing).
Advantages:
Detailed Information: Provides more detailed and specific information about the target's vulnerabilities, configurations, and active services.
Identification of Weaknesses: More effective in identifying exploitable vulnerabilities that can be used in subsequent attack phases.
Disadvantages:
Higher Risk: Increases the risk of detection by the target, which could alert them to the reconnaissance activity.
Potential Legal Issues: Unauthorized active reconnaissance can lead to legal repercussions if done without permission.
Summary
Passive Reconnaissance: Involves gathering information without direct interaction with the target, resulting in lower risk of detection but potentially less detailed information.
Active Reconnaissance: Involves direct interaction with the target to gather detailed information, but carries a higher risk of detection and potential legal consequences.
Both types of reconnaissance are essential in penetration testing to understand the target's environment and identify potential vulnerabilities while balancing the need for stealth and detailed information.

I'm facing a significant issue with my name in German official records and could use some advice.
Recently, I've noticed that an additional second first name has appeared in my official documents from Bürgeramt, Führerscheinstelle, and KFZ-Zulassungsstelle, which was never there before since I came to Germany in 2014. This name started appearing at some point after May 2022; I first noticed it officially during a vehicle registration process in October 2022 and to some extent in May 2022.
Here's what happened:

1. My name in all my previous German documents has always been just my first and last name, as my Ausweis and Passports show. This second first name (my father’s name) is written ONLY in my mother language on my passport and has been left out on purpose and not translated by Ausländerbehörde themselves, as per the Einbürgerung process back in 2014. So it basically just sits in my passport untranslated next to my first name, which is supposed to be this way.
2. The incorrect second first name was added without my knowledge or consent by local authorities of the new city I moved to back in 2022. Before moving to the new city, my Führerschein and previous Bürgeramt where I used to live had all the right information: only my first name and last name.
3. This error has now propagated to various records, including my Meldebescheinigung, Führerscheinstelle, TÜV, and KFZ-Zulassungsstelle so far.

The first instance of the incorrect name appeared on my Meldebescheinigung in May 2022. During an appointment to get my Meldebestätigung, I noticed the second first name appeared on it after clerk kept looking at my passport and typing something from it. I nformed the clerk right away when he let me checl details. He assured me that it wouldn’t be carried over to other records7system and crossed it out by hand and stamped it; I still have a copy of it. Unfortunately, the incorrect name has since appeared in other official documents.
I was at Bürgeramt recently for another kind of appointment and when she gave me documents, the incorrect name was listed again. I told her it's incorrect, showed my passport and Ausweis, but she just said, "If there is a second first name in the passport we have to include it, even in another language. Also, we can’t change it because we do not have authorization to change names here," which is not the case at all, since I never had this second first name in Germany on any other document, be it from Bürgeramt from other city, TÜV before I moved to the new city, Führerscheinstelle before 2022, and never from Ausländerbehörde, Sozialversicherung, Finanzamt, or anywhere else.
I've gathered all relevant documents for a possible timeline and correction, including:

• Previous Meldebescheinigung from other city with the correct name
• Sozialversicherungsschein with the correct name
• Previous and current passports that only have the correct name
• Previous and current Ausweis that only have the correct name
• TÜV documents showing the correct and incorrect names before and after May 2022
• ARD Funk Steuer Rechnung and Steueridentifikationsnummer Bescheinigung with the correct names from previous years

I'll be visiting the Bürgeramt for a Nachreichung Unterlagen / Klärung Meldedaten appointment to try and show them this mistake with proof from every document from before. What other steps should I take, or who else should I contact if this doesn't resolve the issue? Any similar experiences or advice would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance!

I really just need to vent, I know it will all get done eventually but I'm so overwhelmed right now! I added a content warning just in case, since one of the things I'm venting about is how frustrating it is to have to say my deadname over and over and get misgendered on the phone even after explaining why I need to change my name. This is super long, I don't really expect anyone to read it but just needed to get it out.
My partner and I are both trans and we changed our names at the same time (last names too, since we have been married for over a year and wanted to have the same last name). We got through the legal process. Yay! Our state makes it pretty easy and I was so excited to have it done, finally! But now...
We got our names updated on our Social Security cards a few weeks after changing our names, it took a while because the name change hearings were over the phone and we were told the court would mail the certified name change orders but they just never came so we had to go in person to get copies. They are appointment only now but we also finally got appointments and went to the DMV to update our driver's licenses. Still waiting to get the real licenses in the mail, which is annoying since so many places want to see your new ID and we just have the paper ones right now, still, after about 2 weeks (I know, I know, it takes a while but I'm impatient). We could probably bring those in to banks along with the court order, but we also only have one day off together though to do everything we need to do for normal life along with name change stuff. And some things like PayPal make you upload pictures of front and back of ID. Which won't work with these stupid paper ones since they are literally just on regular printer paper.
I've been working on updating my own stuff (and some of my partner's) as much as I can on my other day off when they are at work, but it's just. So much. I feel like I'm getting a lot done and then I look at the list of what we have left to do and get so discouraged. My partner has tried to help a couple times but they get stressed out immediately and can't figure out what to do so I told them I would take care of it since, ya know, we are married and I love them.
I am very confused by the paperwork from the credit union where I have a car loan to update my name on the title, but at least they had an online portal to update the account name. I'm going to try to go in and ask for help with the papers for the title. And the DMV said I should update the title before I update the registration. It feels even more complicated because my dad is also on the title and registration, as he cosigned on the loan for me, but not only does he live in another state already but he is also moving next week to a different state. And he isn't very happy about me changing my name, but idk at least he's sort of trying (at least just so I won't stop talking to him and my mom). I'm really hoping this won't cause any other issues with the title update.
My other two banks (checking account for regular use and checking account I use for bills) gave a number to call but the customer support people (after asking "oh did you get married? congratulations ms. xyz" like yes but you're still incorrect stop it) said to go in person to show the new ID and name change documents. And the two credit cards my partner and I have (one in my name and they are an authorized user, the other vice versa) are stressing me out. One of them (Capital One) made me fax them information (who even faxes anymore???), no clue if they got it or not, or when that will be updated. The other, Synchrony Car Care, I need to call and figure out but I've been putting it off because I'm so so sick of being misgendered and deadnamed immediately as soon as they look up my account. Why can't they just have online portals to upload this stuff??
We have appointments for updating our birth certificates (another one where you either have to mail it in and just hope they get it or else go in person) but they just changed both our appointments to a different day when we have to work without asking if the new time would work. So I will have to cancel and reschedule those and they are so hard to get, and apparently they're still working on applications from February. I also want us to get passports, because we are going on a vacation in October that is easy driving distance to Canada and my partner has never been out of the U.S. and I haven't in a long time. So I thought that would be cool. But a) they are so expensive! even for the cards and b) we will need birth certificates for that. So I figured we can just apply for the passports with our uncorrected birth certificates and the name change orders, but I have no clue where my birth certificate is since we moved. So I will have to go get a copy of that before applying to correct it, apply for the passport, then try to correct the birth certificate.
Oh, and I found out once all the banks and credit cards are finally updated I will need to contact all three credit bureaus to make sure my record is updated correctly or I could lose all my credit history.
I'm sure I'm forgetting stuff too, I've done a lot but it just seems like it is never ending and all the major stuff is a pain to change. And so much of it has fees. Fees for new Driver Licenses, fees for correcting the birth certificates, fees for the car title thing (they want a check for $7.50, I don't even have a checkbook), lots and lots of fees for passports.
I need to do other things too, I'm supposed to call to schedule an appointment to talk about potentially getting ADHD meds (yeah gotta say that untreated ADHD is not helping this situation) and call the same place to schedule a different appointment to see a therapist about top surgery (since Kaiser Permanente requires a letter) and I haven't done either thing. I need to work on this apprenticeship thing I'm doing through work, because once it's done I'll get a kitchen manager certification which will be cool and it has been completely free, but I haven't worked on it in weeks. I want to play Zelda BOTW but haven't done that in weeks. I need to start cooking at home more because my partner and I are spending way too much on food but that means planning out meals and going grocery shopping or we end up leaving the store with just snacks. Every spare moment is spent on the name change stuff and/or having minor breakdowns about it and/or taking a nap to avoid dealing with it.
I know it'll be okay in a few more months, I know it will feel so good once everything is finally updated. But right now? I feel like I'm drowning in name change forms.
