I used to run a public TLS DNS server that would do some hardcore ad/tracking blocking. I shut it down when I switched myself, friends and family to a private Tailscale network with VPN on the exit nodes.
It was a little janky to manage but I still have the files laying around; my point is I could turn it back on. Since it’s DNS-based it applies to all websites and apps running on your devices, and with TLS it’s also encrypted so your ISP wouldn’t be able to track your DNS requests. You would however be trusting me, a random stranger with your queries.
Till
‘til*, short for “until.”
Sorry to be that asshole but it’s frustrating how often this is misused.
So happy to see someone explaining this because it’s always driven me crazy the amount of people pushing PiHole when you can do it so much more simply.
Major bank is always the problem, but small bank always bought out by major bank. 😓
This shit I don’t get. Your computer can’t handle that? Loading up tons of trash in the cloud is fucking atrocious.
Me too, except any time I have to deal with the US banking system. Ever used ACH? What a wreck.
You’re probably aware, but welcome to third party tracking. You can’t truly get away from this trash unless you start doing some hardcore blocking at the network level (apps have tracking too).
I’m always conflicted because I happen to have an LA Metro train close to me, but riding it is always scary because there are violent people, tweakers, creeps everywhere.
When I was in Mexico City recently the trains there weren’t as pretty and they were packed with people, but I didn’t see people tweaking out left and right. I actually very much enjoyed using their transit system while there.
I’m divided on this. I love driving and always volunteer to be the one who drives; I’ve never been in an accident and I can retain some control of the vehicle on snow/ice in tricky areas.
But I too avoid some intersections, either because I’d rather take a slower route where my car keeps moving, its not very safe, or I don’t want to make a left turn at a two way stop crossing six lanes of traffic (I’d rather go around the block to a stop light and turn left there).
I suppose it all depends on context.
I doubt it, and it’s probably because Steve Jobs didn’t want users fussing with complicated things like files and folders on iOS.
Today there’s the Files app but it’s clearly limited due to the lockdown Apple has on the actual “real/full filesystem.
I haven’t jailbroken in quite a long time, but back when I did there were some full-featured apps such as you describe. Other than that you’re probably out of luck.
You’re right, I completely forgot. I worked with someone from the Philippines who said he learned Ruby on Rails and GraphQL at university. When I attended (around 2007) they only offered courses like COBOL, and they wanted me to take out tons of loans for it — no wonder boot camps became so popular.
I didn’t have a great reason other than mind-blowing performance on my LAN, and with large files (which I have a lot of) performance is better too. Probably I’m not smart enough to answer this well, but I did just see this today: https://www.phoronix.com/review/linux-611-filesystems/2
And you better pray the website owner (websites in general, not Lemmy specifically) at least hashes your password.
good use case
Is continuing to overfish our oceans a good use case or am I missing something?
I’ve had it blocked for months now and it’s amusing realizing how many “news” articles are just lists of exactly that.
And block all their DNS hostnames across all their personal devices? 🥰
I’d like to dig up some technical information on this. It has a lot of claims of what hackers can do but how do they do it at a technical level? Is using VPN helpful? Stuff like that.
I live in a major city with cable internet everywhere along with fiber in some areas (unfortunately not mine), but I’ve had multiple instances of carriers’ salespeople knock on my door selling 5G home internet service.
The reason this doesn’t make sense to me is 5G will always have a much higher latency than any wired alternative — it really only makes sense to sell this stuff in rural areas without the infrastructure. What’s more is the most recent carrier has a reputation for extraordinary coverage but their network is CDMA so their network speed is one of the worst in the city.
Wouldn’t it make more sense to sell this stuff elsewhere?
I’ve been using the CarFAX Car Care app/website for a long time but I’m looking for something better.
It would be nice to have something I can enter my car make/model into and have it suggest maintenance but also keep track of repairs. I like uploading PDF scans of receipts too; one thing that always bothered me about Car Care is the horrible, weird compression it does on those files.
Hey everyone, I’m looking to replace my router with a NanoPi R6S but want to do everything myself from Alpine Linux.
I’ve been doing a lot of research and it seems that the chipset and hardware are supported as of Linux 6.3, but looking at Alpine’s ARM documentation makes installation sound a bit more advanced than I’m used to (specifically, the partition layout and U-Boot are confusing to me).
Has anyone gone this route?
Basically, I’m running Tailscale on most of my devices and using subnet routing on a Raspberry Pi for non-Tailscale devices.
My problem is that while using an exit node streaming video from cameras in the iOS/macos Home apps is entirely too slow. I can see from App Privacy Report that it attempts to connect to my home network’s WAN address, so I’ve set up subnet routing to bring in any traffic to any of ISP’s networks through the Raspberry Pi at home (this also makes it possible to use said ISP’s streaming app on Apple TV as if I were at home).
I know that Home doesn’t connect to the cameras locally at all, because I can tear down all the Tailscale stuff and not see any traffic between the client and the camera on the LAN.
Has anyone have a clue how to go about configuring this? Thanks in advance!
