This is completely and totally factually incorrect.

People break laws all of the time and get away with it. Driving one mile an hour over the speed limit is breaking the law.

Just because no pencil dick officer would write you a ticket for one mile an hour over the speed limit doesn't mean that you were not in fact breaking the law, just that you are not going to get punished for the law that you broke.

A friend of mine got roped into a game show when he was in Japan and ended up winning $50,000 USD after taxes.

I think it was one of those shows where you had to contort your body into particular shapes to fit through a sliding wall.

Anyway, he bought a truck and paid off some of his family's bills and now he's running for some sort of city council position, but he's kind of a dick so I wouldn't vote for him.

And I could see the forest a whole lot better if all these trees weren't in the way.

It's not that one person is doing it it's that everyone is doing it.

The only way to stop everyone from doing it is to stop everyone from doing it.

And don't forget how they beat that one police officer to death with a flagpole.

Some people prefer to not have their every action watched and observed by some anonymous Big brother.

The people who do not get that are the people who profit from the watching, and the people that are, best case, inconsiderate of the desires and feelings of other people.

It is not normal nor is it natural to claim ownership of other people's activity.

It is normal and natural to wish to exist without being observed. Privacy is a fundamental human right and companies are taking advantage of the fact that it is not legally enforced.

Hopefully the laws will catch up and make it so that each and every individual opportunity to directly observe a person must be explicitly approved beforehand with a set time limit on the observation, and that all telemetry must be made publically available and transparent, not only during the original acquisition of data but also in each and every single usage of that data after the fact.

It is only fair after all that should accompany wish to observe you that they must also be equally observed.

Apparently it's compared to the all powerful God brain in orbit around Saturn.

I vaguely remember reading that terms of service that violate basic rights are not going to be upheld in court.

I'm not a FUNimation subscriber but I hope that the people who are take Sony to court

My core values are:

Learn everything you can

Share the knowledge you have gained

Don't be a dick

Help out

Don't be afraid to roll up your sleeves

Work until the job is done

And don't fucking take yourself seriously.

Proof?

I read 15 different sites about DNS and not a one of them claimed anything like this. They universally all stated that your network attached devices would use the 1st one unless it didn't respond and only use the 2nd one if the 1st one did not.

So once again, I ask "Can you send me some more information on this" and not just claim it without any backup information?

I apologize if I am coming off rude, just my BS meter is getting close to the red zone and I would really appreciate some reliable evidence.

Yeah, looks like you don't know what you're talking about.

The second ipv4 DNS address is for redundancy and every network connected system will use the first one as long as it responds.

It's perfectly fine to have a single pihole and use something like quad9 as a failover in the unlikely event that your pihole goes down unexpectedly.

Can you send me some more information on this because this is the first I've ever heard that it would not automatically pick the fastest closest and most responsive DNS system available.

No remote DNS server will ever be as fast as one that is local

If you're router has a failover DNS option, usually listed as DNS 2, I would set something like quad 9 as your backup DNS. Address is 9.9.9.9.

If you don't want to do that, then having a second instance of pihole running as the secondary DNS is pretty much your only good option

Yeah, let a nuclear bomb go off in any American city with over 50,000 residents.

That would probably do it

Watership down is PTSD camouflaged as children's media.

I have 4 home servers. 1 running pfsense, 1 running truenas, 1 running proxmox, and 1 is a cloud key gen2 for unifi that I got for free

To a certain point I agree with you, mild psychedelics have been used for millennia to help people uncover their own issues and work through them.

The other side of that is that it is not a cure-all, and most of the people that habitually use psychedelics tend to check out from reality.

So, even if they can be used medicinally and be helpful, they are a double-edged sword in that just because you've seen through some of your own assumptions doesn't necessarily mean you've pierced the veil of the greater illusion of Maya.

The other thing is it's not exactly like the matrix is made to be broken. People have been talking about the concept of Maya, that the world as presented to us is nothing but an illusion meant to keep us trapped, for thousands of years.

They claim that the enlightened people the bodhisattvas the jesus's and Muhammad's have broken through the illusion and stayed back to help guide us along the way.

Which is all well and good but that does not mean that breaking the illusion is easy. It doesn't even mean necessarily that it is possible because first you have to prove that an illusion exists and then you have to prove that there is a way to break it, and most people, I believe, go mad along the way.

I said all of that to say, if you find a way to break out of the matrix please for the love of God show me the way.

I'd pay $20/m for basic vision, I think you're a little short-sighted, pardon the pun.

Rather than only focusing on the blind and visually impaired, just make everyone have to pay you for the privilege of sight.

No, I know that many chemicals have multiple uses, just like propylene glycol can be used as an antifreeze but also works as a sweetener in food.

I honestly cannot find the article that I read but I did read at one point that there was too much silicon dioxide in taco bells meat at one point and they had to reign it back.

So what is in Taco Bell's seasoned ground beef? Here's the full list of ingredients straight from the company's site:

    
Beef, Water, Seasoning [Isolated Oat Product, Salt, Chili Pepper, Onion Powder, Tomato Powder, Oats (Wheat), Soy Lecithin, Sugar, Spices, Maltodextrin, Soybean Oil (Anti-dusting Agent), Garlic Powder, Autolyzed Yeast Extract, Citric Acid, Caramel Color, Cocoa Powder (Processed With Alkali), Silicon Dioxide, Natural Flavors, Yeast, Modified Corn Starch, Natural Smoke Flavor], Salt, Sodium Phosphates. CONTAINS SOYBEANS, WHEAT


  

Silicon dioxide is a major component of sand, and they do not make any bones about including that in their meat, but because of some weirdo suing them saying that it was only 35% beef versus 88% beef I cannot find the link where the FDA was prosecuting them for having too much silicon dioxide in their meat.
