When Pi-hole is down?

Reply in thread

I don’t think this accomplishes what he wants. The router DHCP will assign the second DNS address as you mention, but the devices will select one at random, not as a backup/failover. So what happens is that devices sometimes go through the Pi-hole and sometimes go through the secondary DNS address and receive ads. The only real way I’m aware of is to have a second pi-hole for redundancy. Personally, I decided to use a cloud based service (NextDNS) for this exact reason. I didn’t want my families internet to rely on devices that I host.

Firefox is the only way.

Honest question… I get that Chrome has a bunch questionable privacy practices that sends data back to Google, but do the chromium based browsers do that as well? My understanding is that Chromium is just the rendering engine. How is it bad?

Also, if Google implements their bullshit DRM features, I wonder if the derivative browsers will be able to disable it. I believe I saw that Brave said they won’t use it.

I have no idea why I made this

Funny. I think the real reason is that it’s just not very good at making two people yet and gets confused sometimes. But I made about 50 other variants and I could barely get it to make Trump smile because I assume most of the training data is of him not smiling. I had to emphasize the term “smiling” like 4x to finally get it to work for Trump.
