    The Uptime Contest

    My uptimes will be plus or minus a day or two of however much time passes between fork updates hitting the one drive.

    I decided to try out the development build and have nothing exciting to report. Everything works

    The “dev drive” is now just the drive. Development builds are the D builds. The generally accepted as stable builds are the E builds. Reports seem to be that the recent dev build is ok, but for your purposes I would recommend the latest stable build, in this case 41EA.

    Whatever amount of what I said is true versus BS, cheers to that.

    I’ve been around here for a while and what I have noticed is that the endless, inane demands of entitled and/or clueless users has eventually driven most of the content creators away. I think everyone deals with the stress of support in their own way. Eric started putting his foot down about...

    pixelserv pixelserv - A Better One-pixel Webserver for Adblock

    The big value of pixselerv-tls used to be to allow “failed” (read: blocked) connections to fail gracefully because some websites (browsers), apps, etc. were programmed in ways such that a failure added various unfriendly side effects to the user. I think what we are seeing now is a combination...

    In all seriousness thanks John wherever you are for keeping a ton of good routers not only usable in 2020 but best in class because of the software.

    Orrrrr... maybe you’re the masked coder who is carrying on the project in secret. ;)

    It seems you were beaten to the punch.. but maybe those lotto numbers are coming anyway. I like your use of the phrase “refork my router” btw. I can use it going forward in response to “is the internet off”

    Diversion Diversion - the Router Ad-Blocker

    For what it’s worth I would vote for the minimal list on out of the box installs. Reasoning being, less chance to break things for people who don’t know why it’s broken or that they can configure it. Users who know what they’re doing can change to a more advanced blocking scheme.

    The code is on his github and the downloads are on his onedrive, the way it has always been. The only difference is that he avoids the stress of posting here and fielding complaints. The change logs make it pretty clear that he still reads here though.

    Diversion Diversion - the Router Ad-Blocker

    It’s been long enough ago that I forget the culprit, but one of the popular lists at the time was including a very unusual character (it looked like a “G” and was blocking a fake Google.com) in one of its blocked domains that was making dnsmasq fail to load similarly. I went to a sed line to...

    Diversion Diversion - the Router Ad-Blocker

    You can lead a horse to water, they say. That aside.. if you know enough, and care, about how your event scripts work, you should surely be able to understand what the installation messages mean pertaining to them. Would everyone understand? Of course not, which brings us to the answer to the...

    pixelserv pixelserv - A Better One-pixel Webserver for Adblock

    This is correct. The last bit of communication I had was concerning that topic. I never did get around to implementing unbound/redir but it seemed like a promising avenue based on the reports we were getting at the time. The technical details are way, way over my head but the gist of it was...

    pixelserv pixelserv - A Better One-pixel Webserver for Adblock

    Add-ons clean up/modify the html, eliminating the white space. DNS redirection just blocks the connection to the ad server - the html is unaffected. Limitation of the method.

    Not saying it wasn’t. Pi hole btw gets special mention most likely because it’s so well known, and I wouldn’t be surprised if the whole point was to demonstrate that pi hole doesn’t block as well as some of those extensions do.

    Diversion is never going to make their list of favorite blockers because the way it works (custom domain (re)direction) is entirely ineffective against the type of ads they’re trying to highlight. That whole deal is more suited to browser extensions and the like
