One year ago, I started using AdGuard Home instead of Pi-Hole to filter DNS requests and block ads and tracking. Yesterday, I switched to NextDNS instead. NextDNS has mostly the same features, but is hosted in the “cloud” and I have one less self-hosted service to care about. AdGuard Home is awesome, but NextDNS seems to be working great as well and also integrates with Tailscale easily.

I’ve found a nice place near my apartment, where I can sit down after a long day of work and can finally work through a few articles from my reading list. It is an old cemetery, which was redesigned as a park. There’s a school next to it, so it’s not that quite, but that’s ok.

It seems that mobile reception along German high-speed train routes has improved lately (at least compared to 2019). I’m sitting in an ICE 4 between Hanover and Hamburg, and I’ve initiated a speed test via USB tethering. My mobile phone contract is limited to 10 Mbps, but I seem to be able to take full advantage of that.

How many posts have I read now with people buying a new MacBook Pro to use for a very long time? How many of them will buy new devices in two years? 😅

It’s remarkable that when Facebook is offline for a few hours, panic seems to break out everywhere.

Nice, Firefox 93 got released. The big news is support for the AVIF image format, but Firefox finally has a datetime-local input implementation now!

It rains and thunders like crazy and the water stands a few centimeters on the road. I have not seen that often here. Nature is trying to get back some missing respect.
