Accusing the victim of making this a "cry story" is fucking insane.

That's so weird wtf why don't they call it something like "DNS pool" then?

Why call it secondary then, that's so counterintuitive lol 😭 I guess "the second hardest problem in computer science" applies because I can't think of a better name either.

Edit: Apparently years of seeing it called primary and secondary led to a fundamental misunderstanding of how it works lol. Just use a pi and ad guard.

Randomly? No, only when your pi goes down. Or when ever you're looking at something that gets around the simple DNS based ad filtering pinhole does. It's foolish to spend twice as much money for this level of fail over protection to prevent ads. It's not like if you see an ad you're going to die lol. If you're that opposed to them, sure, go for it, but you're better off spending your time doing other things to stop ads than maintaining two pi holes because one might fail.

And like the other person said, just use ad guard's public DNS. I use it on my router and on my phone.

I just use their free public option. It's basically as good as pihole. With pihole I still got some ads. I still get some like this.

Huh? Typically you have a secondary DNS entry on your router

Human talking to a human: "If you were going to kill someone, how would you do it?"

Human: "I consume a lot of True Crime stuff so I think I have a bit of an idea on how to get away with stuff, or at least some common blunders, why?"

Later

Tonight's top story, local person claims they know how to get away with murder!

On Chrome it becomes a smiley face. I use Firefox and my wife still uses Chrome.

Steam is good, but competitors can only make it even better. Worst case it doesn't change.

Yeah, that's the entire point I'm making. In the same way magenta is not a single wavelength but a side effect of our perception, olo is an effect of stimulating individual types of cone cells instead of the eye as a whole.
