I couldn’t care less

This an American thing? This is exactly what happens in the UK.

That’s my secret, I always sign off my emails as “Regards”.

It wouldn’t stop against volumetric attacks…

They’d still fully consume the WAN bearer regardless of Crowdsec protecting the endpoint. For that you need a scrubbing centre to dump the traffic onto.

And a rate limit

Unless it’s used to find them shelter & permanent accommodation. But that’s never going to happen.

People with the tiniest grip of power are very quick to forget the human factors.

I’m legitimately interested in getting the bank account & sort code details of Elon, Bezos, Arnault, Zuckerberg, Gates, Ballmer, Buffet, Ellison, Page, and Brin.

Soon restaurants will become stock exchanges, with people waiting on the price of chicken nuggets to drop.

You don’t need a warrant to purchase data.

That data would have been collected by a private company, and sold to them. The NSA isn’t the only entity purchasing that metadata.

Not only should the public be concerned on the NSA’s intention for that data, but for the countless private companies holding & using it too.

My dyslexic ass spent too long staring at the words to ensure the joke was indeed the joke I thought it was.

Podman ftw!

But now all I want to do is turn off the light switch.

I crave the chaos.

Wounds are usually slightly itchy to me.

Sounds like the DNS TTL (Time to Live) is set extremely low, preventing clients caching the record. Each time your browser makes a request (such as updating the graphs), it’s submitting a new DNS query each time.

According to this post, this is intentional behaviour for PiHole to support situations where you change a domain from the block to allowed. The same post also references the necessary file modifications, should you wish to extend the TTL regardless.

The only downside you’ll notice is a delay after whitlisting a domain, and it actually being unblocked. You’ll need to wait for the TTL to expire. Setting it to something like 15 minutes would be a reasonable compromise.

“I will always love you…”

Literal stalkers. Fucking creepy.

During the UK lockdowns, I tipped all the front line workers where I could. That’s it.

I’m not tipping someone as compensation for doing their job, that’s what their employer is for.

This is why I love cats. Dogs are loyal from the beginning, but with cats you have to earn it. And it feels so good when you do.

This is where the sexy lives!

IPv6 has NPTv6, which allows you to translate from one prefix into another.

Useful if you’ve got dual WAN, and can’t advertise your own addressing via the ISP. You can use NPTv6 to translate between your local prefix and the public prefixes. But NPTv6 is completely stateless. It’s literally a 1:1 mapping between the prefixes.

I don’t know, but my electric bill is certainly painful.
