The next time my spouse and I are in Target, we’ll check the Magnolia section. They love that section and I bet there is a clock made of candle wax shaped like an old radio or something sitting there with this. ROFL

It was DNS! According to the news anyways. https://www.cnbc.com/2025/10/20/amazon-web-services-outage-takes-down-major-websites.html
Gonna plug one of my favorite YouTubers now lol https://www.redshirtjeff.com/shop/p/it-was-dns-shirt

I think will actually start using this “master” and “apprentice” now. Love it lol
Recently set up a Rackmate T1 10” rack for the homelab so I could consolidate all my proxmox cluster and Raspberry Pi running Pi-Hole and acting as cluster qdevice. I was able to get my Twingate VPN working to access my services outside the home and a more privacy-respecting domain service, Porkbun, to host my domain as the base for my homelab subdomains with Let’s Encrypt SSL certificate for HTTPS via Nginx Proxy Manager. Works well so far!
Lastly, my next project is adding Unbound Recursive DNS server to the pi running Pi-Hole.
I’m really glad! Also, wishing safety on you and your team!
I haven’t had a chance to read the whole article yet, but is Notesnook safe from the mass surveillance going on in Pakistan? @notesnook@fosstodon.org

Gosh, I recently deleted my Meta accounts and X after coming here and Mastodon. Posts like this validate that decision! (even though I don’t want to be on those other platforms anyways these days lol)
Great article! Thanks! Couldn’t agree more that the age verification moves (Zero-knowledge or not) are bad news for everyone’s privacy. It is certainly a tool for constructing infrastructure to control the internet beyond “protecting children”.
Haha, those would be my kind of co-workers, but the kind of work we do requires a background and degree in electrical engineering and power systems. Although, I have been moving away from this in my career in the conventional sense. I want to do dev stuff and networking stuff, that’s where the fun is! They recently gave me an opportunity to help program and configure all the networking and automation equipment for a substation, been learning a lot and feeling like my tinkering with homelab stuff is finally paying off in some way lol.
If this were to pass the Wisconsin Senate, would the outcry from the commercial space alone not reverse this? (I’m a privacy advocate, just curious)
