  • This was maybe 2-3ish years ago;

    I started with a raspberry pi 4 bundle from Amazon, played around with the Linux filesystem, bash shell, APT package manager and just kept reinstalling the headless Debian 12 OS if I believed to have bricked it beyond repair.

    Eventually learned about the Docker Engine & Docker Compose and that essentially gave access to a plethora of software I would’ve have never have used before.

    The raspberry pi 4 started to show sluggishness as I started piling more and more services on it so, Instead of buying traditional server grade hardware I liked the small form factor of the Pi so I opted for a 13th gen Asus Nuc with an 12 core i7.

    Everything runs beautifully now and I even run Debian 12 on my desktop as well!










  • Is it the “can’t not pay for social services” restriction?

    You mean unnecessary use of resources tax.

    The “can’t secretly own a firearm” resteiction?

    Secret? The firearms bans are only affecting people apart of the Canadian Firearms Program, people who have gone through the CFSC and daily background checks.

    You think criminals are actually going to follow the law and abide by these bans? It’s literal abuse of OIC just to take law abiding citizens property.

    the “can’t overrule other countries’ entry requirements” restriction?

    I assume you’re referring to the B.C women who was recently arrested over at the US border. Ultimately she went down there with incomplete documentation, like everyone else she should’ve sorted that out before even attempting to cross.










  • I think something else may be wrong if it breaks for 20 minutes.

    When I originally setup my PiHole many, many, many months ago when I was still learning the Docker engine I had little to no issue.

    I don’t know what caused it either being a power-outage or network loss but ever since I’ve been experiencing DNS related issues (I suspect it’s NTP not syncing), some days I’ll wake up before work realizing “oh shit I have no internet access” frantically trying to fix the issue.

    I think i might take the advice of other commenters here and host two PiHole servers on separate devices/stacks, just got to hope my router supports it.
