True but it seems to me that it’s an advantage to have your IP logged in this more decentralized way. most resolvers also cache the answers so it would be only logged the first time you visit a website.

Couldn’t you run a DNS resolver that pings the authoritative servers directly? Yes initial requests will be slower

Ok maybe I don’t fully understand yet. Let’s say an access point has 3 SSIDs, lan, guest and iot each client on each SSID gets a vlan tag accordingly. So it’s only connected to a single physical port, i think that’s what confused me. But SSIDs are interfaces just like an physical port afaik so your analogy still stands. The security here is the WiFi password anything that connects to LAN gets a LAN vlan tag. but it’s not like anything that connects to any of the SSIDs can get the DHCP lease of some random device on any vlan cuz it got tagged before. Or am I missing something?

That’s a very cool feature actually but how does it stop a hacker if he has obtained a trusted MAC address from another device and connect to vlan 20 directly while the real device is offline?

FYI I learned About VLANs that it is in no way „locked down“. I can spoof the MAC address of a known device from a specific VLAN and I’m in that VLAN. Yes your devices can’t reach the internet/other devices by default but it won’t stop a bad actor.

I use the Wipr ad block extension and then just safari. I can’t bare YouTube ads.

Confused web dev noises

Also most have their own logistics that is just as fast as amazons (cuz they need to since they sell on Amazon)

Yea the tech was worthless after that time and they also lost the lid of my grinder!!!

Don’t be evil :)

Yea tbf they released the web version as they crippled the third party stuff, so it’s a compromise I guess. And they could’ve also stayed app only and we would’ve been fucked completely

All I can say is that there were multiple good ones but Instagram crippled them, devs have repeatedly expressed their frustration and gave up practically. So no there is no frontend for Instagram that’s works anymore. Thanks meta!

“Fast enough to having games installed” haha this reminds me of when I started gaming again after years, I saw games are now like 150gb so I considered it bulk data and put it on my HDDs 😬 but yea the stuff also needs to be loaded at some point

I had to literally recreate my Spotify account when I deleted Facebook, since there is just no way to login without it if you delete Facebook.

I actually bought a ausustor NAS with the intention of flashing it with trueNAS or run headless. But tbh the OS does what I need rn with reasonable effort and I actually stuck the the stock OS. The backup options are not that great to use and with one press backup you can only save a single share at a time. So I am using syncthing for that.

I saw esp32 picture frames That fetch images via WiFi, but this would be a lot of DIY.

My personal favorite is using all already always on devices such as a wall mounted tablet and let them have a screensaver that rotates through is set of images that change regularly.

It’s from a time where we didn’t have digital contact lists and no internet. So what if you want to call the bakery down the street? You look up a public record like YellowPages. And the same was true for people too. I know it’s hard to imagine now with plenty of Indian call centers social engineering grandma, but the only real “wow”here is why they didn’t change this yet.
