  • South America? Just do a full swap and leave them holding the bill.

  • "Might"... it's introducing an artificial delay when loading videos.

  • What a bargain... a mere $500m, and however much "travel assistance" costs, to trash your own economy.

  • From the consumers of necessary services that they have wholly captured...?

  • I could spend a lot of time sifting through ads, nag screens and bullshit to find the actual detail I want on a webpage.

  • Sounds like you want to nationalise the internet and all its services. :P

    If only we could pay for a worthwhile internet via taxes.

  • I guess I am pretty far from saturating my WiFi in any way, the removal of cables with little to no impact on connectivity was far more of a priority for me. I have never noticed a WiFi related outage or performance loss.

  • I should have rebuilt an old coffee maker in to a Pi Hole instead. I'm such a rube.

  • I have never felt the need to have a wired connection for my DNS/DHCP, since such a trivial amount of data exchanges hands. The quality of the wired connection if it had one would similarly have negligible impact, surely.

  • I mean, a lot of things would work, I could power it all with potato batteries if I had enough. The Pi Zero 2 W only cost ~£15 anyway.

  • This cat looks like a hostage.

  • Yeah... I'm not going to stick a clunky old laptop on top of my bookshelf and have it run 24/7 as my PiHole. My Pi Zero 2 W is far more appropriate.

  • It was fun to thumb my nose at Google while it lasted I guess, maybe if they were less amoral then I'd be less belligerent toward them.

  • Musk's falling out with Farage was reportedly because he wasn't rabidly far-right enough in the correct ways.

  • Which types you like probably hinges on how you feel about flak vested white supremacist militias, I guess.

  • Sure, a service that manages an infinitely smaller amount of content and complexity. It is a situational tool, hardly a YouTube killer... the banner presented on the homepage professes that it's expensive to run and please donate.
