I really hope the magsafe cable is not fixed to the power brick, it is the only bad memory I have from magsafe 2

A big shout out to Paul Hegarty, one of the best teachers I've ever had, even though I've only attended his online classes.

Yes, you can do that via whitelist/blacklist: https://docs.pi-hole.net/guides/misc/whitelist-blacklist/

After a few failed attempts to migrate from Google as my default search engine due to poor results, a couple of months ago, I decided to give DDG another try. Been using daily since, I don't even remember what Google is. Not sure if the service did improve that much or what, but I'm glad I could move on. Youtube, you are next.

As @theandrewbailey mentioned, DNS is light protocol, I guess even older PIs would handle it pretty well. But, as a permanent solution, I would opt to set up on a VM/Docker so that I could have snapshots to quickly recover the service in the event of a problem.

Go for it, it's really worth the effort, even if it is a small one, with the bonus of being fun (at least for me it is). I can't imagine setting up my home network without pihole, and I'm considering setting it up at work, I manage a small network with 100 devices connected to the internet.

No OP so I can't comment on his source, but I heard the exact same statement from a maintenance engineer who works on Boeing aircrafts for over 30 years (https://www.linkedin.com/in/joselitosousa). He also owns a youtube channel on which he discuss mainly aviation (pt/br) (https://www.youtube.com/avioesemusicas)

I have 3 use cases for my RPi:

-PiHole as an ad/tracking blocker (adding PiVPN tonight to VPN into my home network)

-Plugging sensors to measure temp/humidity and controlling AC state (on/off) via IR Led (https://imgur.com/a/pYugqXz)

-Unifi Controller

Still on my todo list: PiVPN to VPN into my home network

PiVPN, if you have the need to remote access your home network:

A bit off topic, but, is logging off from a facebook account in the browser enough to stay away from FB's radar or they can still track users through scripts running on others websites?

Seems like there is a kill switch: https://twitter.com/PTsecurity_UK/status/879779707075665922

I know, my intention is not to impose but to show him what exists and what can be done. I believe that if I do not do that, no one will.

[Edit] I say that because I live in the coutryside in Brazil. People here, specificaly in my city, are focused in agricultural activities and are still not used to deal with computers.

The child is my nephew. The reason I want to show him computer science is from my own experience. When I was a kid, I got my first computer before all my friends. Today, I realize that made a big difference. Also, I see that his parents do not do not care about that, they gave him a tablet just to play and watch videos on youtube. I just want to show him that there's so much more than that!

same thing happened last december: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10749129

Looks very good

I don't ever remember the last time my MB Air crashed. I run Mavericks (10.9.5) + Windows 7 (parallels)

edit: Mid 2012 Air, 2GHz i7, 8GB ram

"Essential device protection The Galaxy S5 is IP67 dust and water resistant. It also offers a Finger Scanner, providing a secure, biometric screen locking feature and a seamless and safe mobile payment experience to consumers. The Ultra Power Saving Mode turns the display to black and white, and shuts down all unnecessary features to minimize the battery consumption."

Don't wanna start a flame war but it's going to be interesting to read the comments about the fingerprint scanner now that others are deploying it besides apple.

9/23/13 4:00 PM Gmail service has already been restored for some users, and we expect a resolution for all users within the next 1 hours. Please note this time frame is an estimate and may change.

Just tested it and It really allows me to make calls even with the phone locked.

I've been using iOS 7 since beta 1. My first reaction was: "wtf are these colors?". Now, after some months using it daily I'm used to it and even started to like it.

I had a Dell Vostro 1500 (made in Brazil) and I ran at least 4 different releases of Ubuntu. The only issue I had was with my graphic card, I never managed to setup an external display and I spent hours trying to find the solution. Other than that everything ran smoothly.

One thing that annoys me in GMail is the fact that it doesn't support .eml files. Every time someone sends me an .eml I have to open my desktop mail client, wait for it to download all mails and then check what's in the file. Exporting mails to .eml would be nice.

Now it is showing Service disruption for Admin control panel / API

Same thing here in Brazil. GMail and Google Apps Admin Console out

I'd really like to know where the data from Brazil comes from, specifically Florianopolis, SC. The first thing I did when I updated to iOS 6 was testing the maps app. The building I live is at least 5 years old, but the map shows it under construction

>To capture a valid handshake, a targeted network must be monitored while an authorized device is validating itself to the access point.

I think it's a really noob question, but how do you monitor a network if you are not connected to it?
