  1. Learned about #splitdns today. i have experimented with #blocky dns server which worked fine now i want to try out with split dns I guess it won't cut out for this so alternative would be #AdGuardHome which is written in #go and the release are single binary (easy to test) with web ui.

    TLDR: Split DNS, or split-horizon DNS, is a networking technique providing different DNS results for the same domain name based on the user's location (internal vs. external)

  5. Love to explore and experiment, although with the summer and outdoor activities that will be a lower priority one.

  10. Somebody had a stuck keyboard during domain registration…

    Blocky screen shot, blocking a good amount of rubbish.

  11. Can someone tell me why a simple 5 port switch is in the top 5 of devices which communicates to home called Unifi?

    Blocked it... no clue why, except for updates but not in this frequency.

    Pi-hole makes you even more concerned about privacy. It's eye-opening to see how frequently my network makes calls to servers.

  16. @blindcoder Just looked up the #DNS ad blocking landscape last night.

    Seems like #PiHole is slowly coming out of fashion and more seen as the "simple beginner's tool". #AdGuard is what most people seem to use nowadays. (That's also what's integrated into #GLiNet routers!) And the real geeks apparently use #Technitium (.NET!).

    Some pay for #NextDNS.io as they don't want to host "such essential service" themselves. Also, you can use it from everywhere without the need for VPN tunnels or open ports into your home for DoH/DoT.

    And #Blocky got honorary mentions from some masochists.

  17. Note to self: When converting a Kubernetes cluster with Cilium as CNI to replace MetalLB with Cilium's new L2 announcements, you need to tweak some settings in your Cilium installation. Especially enabling Cilium to act as a kube-proxy replacement (if you are not already doing so) and enabling the l2 announcements. Which means kube-proxy needs to be disabled in k3s.

    In other words: k3s on my Raspi4 is now providing a loadbalancer to blocky using Cilium's L2 announcements...

  18. @fyw321 @geerlingguy My 8 node cluster costs around 55W via POE. It is 3 pi4 8G control+worker nodes, and 5 pi4 4G worker-only nodes (1 is actually 8G.)

    Storage is #iscsi on spinning rust on #TrueNAS, but you can do all this on local disks.

    It handles a LOT:
    - #Promstack, #FluxCD, #Calico, various scrapers
    - #Adguard
    - #Blocky (another adblocking #dns)
    - #Jellyfin
    - #Ombi, Prowlarr, *arr, Deluge
    - Home automation helpers (#ser2sock instances, #zigbee/#zwave 2mqtt, but not HA itself)
    - #Argo for builds (deprecated in favor of the x64 cloud lab. Building x64 docker containers on arm is BAD)
    - Democratic CSI for iscsi/nfs
    - #GoHarbor container registry & #dockerhub cache
    - #Mealie recipe manager
    - #Monica contact manager
    - #SMTP relay to gmail
    - #Ubiquiti console (bootstrapping becomes a chicken and egg problem though, if it goes down wrong)
    - #Wireguard #VPN server
    - #Whoogle
    - #VisualStudioCode and a #dind sidecar
    - SSL termination for most of the rest of the network
