  I don’t need a jury of my peers judging my comment history. I’ll just take guilty plea, thank you.

  Not to mention that a lot of self-hosting can be done on hardware you already had laying around.

  Yeah, ISPs are usually under pressure to obey the copyright holders. But VPNs should always be used.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨“Awful”: Roku tests autoplaying ads loading before the home screen⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I can’t imagine that happening with today’s systems. Yes, it’s theoretically possible. It just seems unlikely that they’d go through the trouble of denying service to someone who didn’t fetch data from one specific domain but did get it from another.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨“Awful”: Roku tests autoplaying ads loading before the home screen⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Install a Pihole server on your network. It’s a DNS filter. When a client tries to access a domain that has been blacklisted (ie a known ad or tracker domain), it denies the lookup.

  On my roku homescreen it just has an empty placeholder where it tried to put the ad, but my Pihole server denied it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨“Awful”: Roku tests autoplaying ads loading before the home screen⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  PiHole.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  OK thanks. This makes sense. I guess if I’m going to go through the trouble of whitelisting the MAC, I can go and disable randomization on the device and assign it a static IP.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I see. Thanks.

  What other way is there if the the IP is dynamic. I thought to create a whitelist for devices I had to add the client’s MAC to the custom group. It seems to work fine so far. I was just concerned that it wouldn’t continue to work if the iPhone changed its MAC.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are your Homelab goals for 2025?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I have the same question. It seems like a step backwards.
