@fccview I wasn’t really joking. I was hearing it.

@fccview Vroom! Power tools!
That gives me an idea.You know what a grinder sounds like, and a drill, and a chainsaw. Why don’t OUR power tools have a distinctive sound? Or the code itself? It would be faster to hear a card deck shuffled, in various ways, and know an algorithm is, than to read the documentation or the source code.
Source code = math = music. We could probably pick out AI Slop instantly.
0·3 months ago@altphoto @selfhosted This is essentially what Pi-Hole does. It handles your DNS queries and blocks any that you want. It automatically updates blocklists from a variety of sources available. Some IPs are trackers, advertisers, malware, phishing and other notorious or otherwise obnoxious. You decide. Works great. I have about 1.7 million IP addresses blocked, but only a couple thousand or so show up on any day. Amounts to between 5% and 8% of my total traffic. I cannot fully express my joy with the FREE software. I have a dedicated Raspberry Pi 4B on my network for this purpose, but it can run on almost any Linux variant. #RPi #homelab #DNS #PiHole
@irmadlad This what I want too. It’s farther down my to-do list, but I’ll be sure to let you know if I discover anything. Good luck!
@irmadlad @selfhosted That is precisely the challenge. I’m not sure it is possible.
@Dylancyclone @selfhosted This looks very useful. I will study your docs and see if it’s right for me. Thanks for sharing!
@curbstickle @selfhosted Awesome list! I could have really used this a year ago. 😒
@phant Pi-hole is super easy to set up and easy to build on. It’s been very robust for me and also eye-opening due to the excellent UI. About 5% of the network traffic in my house is now blocked. Thousands of DNS requests per day. Most of that is trackers. Apps and “smart” devices are very determined to phone home so you’ll have to block many of these domains manually as they show up. Be forewarned, some apps and web sites will simply stop working if you block their tracking and other info gathering on your network. Luckily, there is good #FOSS to substitute.
