chipb··on Improving DNS Privacy with Oblivious DoH
How well does the redirect scheme work for a device that connects to a central DNS server listening on, say, port 5353 instead? What about 80 or 443?
chipb··on Linux 3.8 introduced unprivileged user namespaces [pdf]

chipb··on True Colour support in various terminals
Except you can already query/set the color palette to arbitrary RGB values with control sequences (at least with xterm, rxvt-unicode, and I imagine others).

As far as I've been able to tell, "truecolor" terminal support is about simultaneous display of a range of colors beyond what fits in a palette. Which, eh...seems a bit much for a terminal.
