I’m using it and never going back.

It’s not just the privacy aspect, but the fact that most results in other search engines suck. The first two pages would usually be ads - first the bought ones, then company websites and copywritten blogs. I get that way less with kagi. I find useful stuff faster and my brain is less polluted.

Jokes on you, using AI I got that time down to 4 hours trying to convince it to create working code, and 3 hours of debugging.

Unity games on mobile send your location to Unity servers every couple seconds through the Unity ad network.

Things you can do:

• GDPR Request to Unity
• use a DNS that blocks trackers, like mullvad

I would get a backup tool that offers encryption, which is most of them. Popular choices are: tarsnap, restic and Borg.

And then install graphene OS

Nextcloud has collabora integrated.

I would put this stuff behind VPN.

Für die Schnellläufer Generation: früher war die SPD mal links. Dann kam Schröder und hat sie rechter gemacht. Daraufhin sind alle linken aus der SPD ausgetreten und haben ihre eigene Partei gegründet, die Wahlalternative soziale Gerechtigkeit (WASG). Weil sie irgendwie dumm waren haben sie sich mit dem Überbleibsel der DDR Regierung (PDS) zusammengeschlossen und die Linke gegründet. Damit wurden alle moderaten Linken in Deutschland unwählbar, und die SPD hatte nie wieder ne wirkliche Chance dazu, zu regieren.

The question to ask yourself is why is cloudflare offering that service for free? Probably because they get something out of it, like analysing the data.

Get a refurbished Lenovo thinkpad t470 or so from ebay, make sure it has full HD and comes from a commercial shop. All the Thinkpads work great with Ubuntu. They are good quality business notebooks, easy to repair with good parts availability. You can probably get one around 150 or so.

I repaired laptops for a living for a while and Thinkpads were always my favorite.

Seems weird to me, the router would need to do deep packet inspection of DNS and selectively block specific ones. It feels more like you’ve set up your DNS to do forwarding instead of resolution. Can you post a network diagram and the DNS config?

It’s a gas where the chemical reaction of the combustion has produced enough energy to heat it up to a temperature where it emits visible light. Kind of like a glowing piece of metal, but in gas form.

It’s a mixture of black body radiation and individual spectral lines.

The spectral lines happen when electrons fall from a high to a low energy state and the energy difference is emitted as light.

Black body radiation describes the fact that everything constantly emits electromagnetic radiation (=light). But what kind of light depends on the temperature with colder bodies like us humans emitting infrared whereas warmer bodies like the sun emit visible light. That is also why light temperature is a thing and the unit is Kelvin.

Here are some graphs and stuff: https://physics.stackexchange.com/questions/648273/does-fire-emit-black-body-radiation

Do tcpdump host $server instead. Otherwise you will only see the request (the response goes to a different port).

Just to be sure you do dig A @server $domain (with the “A”) and can confirm the following

SERVER is your server

;; ANSWER SECTION is empty (or doesn’t exist)

;; AUTHORITY SECTION mentions your local DNS server

Also check

dig NS @server $domain

Is your server in the answer section?

Mine doesn’t seem to exist anymore sorry.

Here is how I would diagnose (I’m assuming you have Linux / WSL on a client)

1. Check the DNS record is actually set (yes do it again)
2. Do these steps on the client:
3. dig $domain check which server answered
4. dig a $domain should give a record
5. dig a $domain @server to make sure you’re querying the right server

If none work, probably network issue (DNS boind to wrong IP, firewall, etc)

If 3 and 5 work but 4 doesn’t, your DNS isn’t authorative.

If only 5 works DNS settings on the client is wrong.

Luckily no government in Europe would ever try to force users to install spyware in their messengers europe wide.

If you assume everything is compromised, there is no safety. You have to trust something at some point.

Usually, speaking from a professional IT perspective, people trust encryption. Once you do that, it does not matter how safe or unsafe the place where you store your data is.

AES, the encryption standard used by pretty much everything, is safe. It has not been weakened in any meaningful way since its inception and is also quantum - safe.

You could use for example openssl or Veracrypt or even just 7zip to encrypt it. If you don’t trust these tools, encrypt it twice with two different ones, just put a txt file next to it with the exact steps to decrypt, because you will forget in which order you have done things.

Personally I have a homeserver that is encrypted at rest and then it uses restic to store encrypted backups in the cloud.

Ultrasonic cleaner! Really awesome for glasses, jewelry, all kinds of small stuff. I fill it with isopropanol solution and clean my phone case in it.

Die Einkünfte die er hat sind laut deinem Zitat aber nicht aus Einnahmen der Firma, sondern durch den Verkauf von Aktien.

Es ändert sich nichts an der Tatsache, dass wenn man einen Dienst langfristig betreiben will, die Einnahmen mindestens die Ausgaben decken müssen. Das ist ja wohl offensichtlich erst jetzt der Fall.
