I started learning HTML at the age of 10 using FrontPage and Word. There were entire utilities dedicated to stripping out Word’s atrocious HTML at the time.
I’ve always wished Markdown was better supported in email. I work with external companies’ APIs a lot where email is the medium, and typically I use a Windows monospace font for code snippets (I’m on macOS but there are a handful of monospaced fonts that work on both).
It’s very clunky, and I wish the backtick notation would work out of the box. Whoever decided HTML in email was the way to go should be shot.
IPv6. Stop engineering IoT junk on single-stack IPv4, you dipshits.
Amen
At a high level it involves a terrible custom parser written in Ruby for several formats of DNS blocklists. It finds the proper domain then outputs a large configuration file for Unbound.
I’ve attempted to Dockerize it but honestly, I think it would be better to use a superior parser written in another language that can be statically compiled.
I was using Fly.io to host it in various regions using an Anycast IP, but since I’ve moved onto using VPN for everything I’ve moved it to a few hosts acting as Tailscale exit nodes. Those exit nodes provide the blocking DNS service along with rewriting incoming Tailscale client traffic to route out of another network interface assigned to a VPN provider.
Had I unlimited free time I’d rewrite the parser in Crystal, but part of me thinks there’s got to be something already written by someone in Go.
It’s a common solution but I do something more involved and manual, but it’s the same concept.

I go hard with DNS-based ad blocking and I’m constantly confirming it works by checking the network tab in developer tools. I’m basically only seeing first party scripts and CDN assets — 99% of websites load all the tracking garbage from third-party domains that can be easily blocked.
I use it and it’s pretty great, though it sometimes does feel like a hack (I mean, that’s essentially what it is).
For a better experience pick a search engine in Safari that you’ve blocked with DNS so that you’ll never see a glimpse of it before xSearch redirects you (as you would on a slower network).
I don’t even remember mine unless I’m going somewhere I know doesn’t have NFC. It’s a flimsy, shitty wallet that I only bring to flimsy, shitty points of sale and I’d really like to not bring it at all.
Who doesn’t connect their printer over Bluetooth?
Can’t tell if you’re riding the cliche or serious
If this tech is real, maybe we’ll see it in Los Angeles area apartments in 3050

I’d never get past this. If a website forced this on me I’d probably stop using it, otherwise I’d just override it with CSS.
Or they hate updates for some fake reason like “they want to control me”
Streaming sponsored by bigoted religious animal abusers. Yeah no it’s gonna be a hard pass for me.
I’ve been using a password manager for ages, and passkeys for a long time now.
What about passkeys is a loss of control? I’m 100000000% more likely to use them when supported, usernames/passwords are so janky, as are SMS/email-based 2FA (and the stupid “magic passcode” that makes you check your phone/email every time you sign in); for average users it greatly reduces the risk of phishing, etc.
If I want to delete one I can do just that.
Websites that require username/password + passkeys are annoying as hell though.
Here’s what I do about it:
