Yup it does!

I don’t think it even has to be “more” so long as others as being fucked over that’s good enough for them
Yeah as far as I know this still works.
You need to use a valid address (there are sites for generating one)
You also need to use a credit card that has never previously been used in Google with another address
I use a DNS server on my local network, and then I also use Tailscale.
I have my private DNS server configured in tailscale so whether on or off my local network everything uses my DNS server.
This way I don’t have to change any DNS settings no matter where I am and all my domains work properly.
And my phone always has DNS adblocking even on cell data or public Wi-Fi
The other advantage is you can configure the reverse proxy of some services to only accept connections originating from your tailscale network to effectively make them only privately accessible or behave differently when accessed from specific devices
Another cool trick is using tailscale to ensure your portable devices always can access your Pihole(s) from anywhere and then setting those server’s tailscale addresses as your DNS servers in tailscale.
This way you can always use your DNS from anywhere, even on cell data or on public networks
I keep a third instance of Pihole running on a VPS and use it as the first DNS server in tailscale so it will resolve a bit faster than my local DNS servers when I’m away from home
And as many others have mentioned, it can be self-hosted as well.
Also fun side note:
As long as you are logged into a GitHub account and in a desktop browser you can press the .
key on your keyboard while viewing any GitHub repo to open it in vscode web.
Yeah this is what I do.
Putting Cloudflare as my secondary would allow some requests to get through and then often the device whose requests went to Cloudflare would continue using Cloudflare for a while.
The best solution I found was to run a second Pihole and use it as the secondary.
You can use something like orbital sync to keep them syncronized
Why not both?
Yeah if he thinks he has it so bad send him over to a prison in the southern US for a bit, bet he’ll be missing his “inhumane treatment” back home
It depends what I’m backing up and where it’s backing up to.
I do local/lan backups at a much higher rate because there’s more bandwidth to spare and effectively free storage. So for those as often as every 10 mins if there are changes to back up.
For less critical things and/or cloud backups I have a less frequent schedule as losing more time on those is less critical and it costs more to store on the cloud.
I use Kopia for backups on all my servers and desktop/laptop.
I’ve been very happy with it, it’s FOSS and it saved my ass when Windows Update corrupted my bitlocker disk and I lost everything. That was also the last straw that put me on Linux full-time.
I really tried to like openboard but the way it hides the % key and the location of the / key drove me back to gboard
It always capitalizes Internet for me
I already canceled Netflix when they stopped allowing me to use my account in multiple locations.
Not at all surprised their games got microtransactioms.
It is a consequence of how the networks were physically built when providers thought that cable and download speeds were all anyone needed; it’s not just a software switch they can flip if they wanted to.
This is true of so much of our infrastructure in the US.
Not bandwidth speeds specifically but just aging infrastructure that was built out long ago and not properly maintained and/or updated over time
It’s not a Windows app.
You can run it on Windows with Docker, but I would suggest a Linux server and a reverse proxy for the best experience (like most self-host solutions)
Definitely Immich.
There’s a lot of these kinds of services, hosted or self-hosted that are labeled as a “Google Photos replacement”
But very few of said services have features like face matching and object recognition alongside automatic backups.
IMO it’s not a legitimate replacement for Google Photos without those features and Immich really delivers on that without compromising your privacy.
Here’s an article that mentions it
As a rule of thumb, most adapters with a female USB-C socket on them are non-compliant.
You can also look at the USB spec yourself
USB Type-C receptacle to USB legacy adapters are explicitly not defined or allowed. Such adapters would allow many invalid and potentially unsafe cable connections to be constructed by users.
FYI essentially all adapters with a usb-c female connector are non-compliant.
When people talk about USB-C potentially damaging devices, it is because of non-compliant adapters, chargers, cables, etc.
So just keep in mind that while the risk may be minimal depending on your use-case, these adapters can be dangerous and risk damaging your devices.
