would there be any difference if the webpage has a JS button to put something in the clipboard, or it having code running in the background that puts things into the clipboard at page load?

Clicking a button shows user intent, whereas a page load doesn’t. No user expects loading a page to overwrite their clipboard, but every user that clicks a “Copy to Clipboard” button does expect it.

I’ve never heard of LoRa. The marketing and whitepapers for HaLow specifically mention the things I did, for example https://www.wi-fi.org/discover-wi-fi/wi-fi-certified-halow

Not sure what you mean by “controlled” given it’s open-source?

That’s pretty good given (as far as I know) the main use case for HaLow is for low bandwidth, very low power use cases, like for IoT devices and other things you’d use Zigbee or Z-wave for today, including devices that run for years off a single button cell battery

At least back then, snaps wouldn’t work if the home folders were not under /home/<username>,

Do you mean that it literally had /home/ hard-coded instead of using $HOME? That’s crazy if so.

Which OS?

On Android, Moon+ Reader is pretty good.

My wife uses the Amazon Kindle app on her Android tablet. You can use it for non-Kindle books by sending an email to a special email address for your Kindle account: https://www.amazon.com/sendtokindle/email.

Calibre is useful for this. It shows an easy to use “send to Kindle” button, and can convert books in ePub, mobi, etc formats to the format that works best in the Kindle app (AZW3).

If you want a web interface for Calibre (eg to run on a home server and download books when you’re away from your computer), Calibre-web works well.

But why deal with separate software like dnscrypt-proxy when AdGuard Home has it built-in?

A recursive DNS server and a local DNS cache/forwarder/are two different things with two different purposes. You will always need both.

Why do you need two separate ones though? Recursive DNS servers also cache responses. Usually the only reason you’d run a local forwarder/cache is if you’re not running a local recursive server.

Yeah it’ll use the local copy if it exists.

Yeah this is strange. People need to stop vilifying sex work. If the person is doing it willingly, they’re not hurting anyone, and they enjoy doing it, what’s the problem?

I have Plexamp on my phone configured to automatically download the “loved” album (songs I’ve rated 4 or 5 stars). It automatically downloads songs I add to the playlist. My library is too big to download it all to my phone (most songs are in FLAC format) so I’d need to download a curated list anyways.

This seems to work well. I’ve used it a few times on flights or when I’m in a hotel room with spotty phone coverage and no wifi.

Throw Unbound on there too as your upstream recursive resolver

If you want to run your own recursive DNS server, why would you run two separate DNS servers?

You don’t even need to worry about an encrypted session to your upstream anymore because your upstream is now your loopback.

Your outbound queries will still be unencrypted, so your ISP can still log them and create an advertising profile based on them. One of the main points of DoH and DoT is to avoid that, so you’ll want them to be encrypted at least until they leave your ISP’s network.

You can download all your playlists.

AdGuard Home is a better choice than PiHole since it uses DNS-over-HTTPS by default. There’s also an app called AdGuardHome-Sync to sync settings between multiple instances.

I’d recommend running two DNS servers, and at least one of those separately from the rest of your infrastructure like on a Pi. That way, if you need to pull one of them offline, the internet still works.

Surely you mean WS_FTP LE.

Put all songs in a playlist and then download that playlist?

Their main product is a server that you run on a computer and lets you stream your own content.

It’s also the only desktop OS that’s actually Unix. MacOS gets official Unix certification with every major release. All other “Unixy” OSes are just “Unix-like”.

I was using Debian on desktop for a while. I’ve been using Debian on servers for over 20 years so I figured it’s a good choice. I liked it, but ended up switching to Fedora. The only Linux distro I can use at work is Fedora (we use a modified version of Fedora) and I liked it enough to start using it at home too.

I appreciate the newer packages, especially for things like KDE Plasma and the Nvidia drivers. For example, Fedora had KDE Plasma 6.1 before Debian had even started packaging 6.0 for experimental.

And make sure it’s a VPN that supports port forwarding. Sharing is caring.

or just use Usenet.
