Why not use capacitors instead of lithium? Sure they won’t hold a charge nearly as long, but they also charge in a fraction of the time too.

Hey kid, give me the phone…glance through followers.

Cool.

Why are we trying to turn parents into spies. Just talk to your kids. Check the devices on occasion. Check them anyways for shady apps or signs of malware. Phones are computers that happen to fit in the hand and has a sim.

I’ve been running it for a few years now. Lots of custom lists. Got about 2.2 million domains blocked ATM. I’ve had to make a few exceptions and do some manual tweaks. The recent update to 6.0+ also gives quite the performance boost too while adding a few things that were lacking.

Pivpn is the package to get. Makes wire guard dead simple to setup. Just have to do a port forward on your router

What hardware do you have already? Is pihole running on a rpi? Look into setting up wire guard or tail scale. Then you can have pihole on your phone while your not at home.

Go old school and setup some basic website with apache2.

It did change. One of the many changes listed. It’s using a different web server, I forget now, but moved away from the previous one.

I mean, the fastest method is likely to just plug the phone into PC and pretend it’s a flash drive?

I’ve been team red for a very long time. I’ve never thought of them as top of the line. CPU has shifted, but I’ve got no delusions about the GPU side. My 7800xt is great. Handles everything I need it for. I don’t care about Ray tracing. And I know its not comparable to most of the 40xx offerings.

Wireguard has effectively zero impact on my setup.

And to a point I agree. But the way the story reads, it sounds like not much was done with the new machines after installation. We’ve all had money taken from faulty vending machines. But the stakes are slightly higher in this.

Isn’t a machine taking your money and not receiving anything from it isn’t?

If it’s just one or two rooms ya need wired up, but don’t wanna run the copper? There are options. If you have any old coax drops in them there’s adapters you can attach and just reuse the old coax. OR you could look into a power line adapter. Basically it uses the house electrical lines (in the wall) to create a connection.

Mostly I just use nextclouds deck extension. It behaves close enough to what I need as a solo operation.

Others have said this, but it’s always a work in progress.

What started out as just a spare optiplex desktop and needing a dedicated box for Minecraft and valheim servers, to now having a rack in my living room with a few key things I and others rely on. You definitely aren’t alone XD

Regular, proactive work goes a long way. I also stated creating tickets for myself, each with a specific task. This way I could break things down, have reminders of what still needs attention, and track progress.

Xerox has been great for me. They dont just make giant copiers you need a forklift to deliver and a giant service contract. They still make small home office desk printers.

After wiring up to my network and giving it a static, it’s just worked, for all devices for everyone. No need to download or install anything either.

…is as mod by Vaskii

I use the percentile die for that.

There are still a need for document printing at home. Granted it’s just smaller in scale these days. Mine is mostly used for the kids. Like printing out things to color on, or something educational. On rare occasions I’ll need to print some kinda form, for work or some kinda government form, even event tickets.

That said, I really don’t know anyone that’s looking to photo print at home anymore. It’s just cheaper to have it done somewhere like Walgreens or Walmart.

Can confirm, I’ve been using it for about three years now. With some minimal tweaks for my own us case.

It auto updates itself, can use LetsEncrypt. I’ve had an A to A+ rating from their own security thing. It does usually stay a few minor point releases behind, but that’s never been an issue for me.

I set mine up with a no-ip dyndns for free. Lots of options here op. But in the long run having any domain is going to smooth out the process. Also don’t skip over LetsEncrypt cert.
