  • Boy I sure do wish I was paying a monthly subscription fee to have billionaire narcissist tech bros whisper bullshit into my ears all day long using their giant environment destroying make-everything-expensive technology they insist I definitely want even though it will also definitely steal my job.

    Truly the future we have always dreamed of.




  • There are very few places on earth that are capable of producing the silicon wafers used in RAM. These factories are still producing at the same rate as before but buyers who pay more (large companies with data centers) are buying them so there are fewer left over for normal consumers (hence the high prices). So why not scale up by making the factories bigger or faster? They are, it will take decades to do that because the process is so advanced. Why not just scale out by building more factories for producing the parts? They are, but that too will take decades.




  • I was doing basically this with a different sync tool, but I had a couple issues with it:

    • If I needed to toggle ad blocking I had to go toggle it on both pihole instances
    • When troubleshooting an issue I had to check two log sources, or disable one and then reproduce the issue again
    • Sync was one directional so I could only make configuration changes from the primary instance

    I’ve been a very happy Pihole user for years and years and Pihole 6 is the best yet, but once you’re dealing with multiple pihole instances, Nebula Sync and Unbound, then Technitium is actually simpler to manage since it does all that natively.
