I never expected this place to still be alive. Keeping the lights on since 2000-08-27.

I'm always amazed at the places I'll end up and the lengths I'll go to avoid doing actual work. This forum gives me crazy old-internet nostalgia. shit, it even predates SSL apparently.

Matthewman, Hyman, hope you guys ended up alright in life.

Take it easy everyone.

Hi... yeah, there's a "few" upgrades that this place never saw. And probably won't.

I had 15 min to spare so I installed a cert.

Awesome! Makes me feel all warm and secure. Now I just have to figure out how to keep the CCP from listening to me though my cheap Tuya-based IOT devices and we'll be all set.

I'm going to take a stab at it and say you're already running pihole on your network? If not I'm running it fine on a le potato, raspberry pis were out of stock at the time.

Yeah I have pihole. Also all of the IoT shit is on its own VLAN where they can't talk to anyone but the pihole or the Internet. Any DNS requests also get rerouted to the pihole if they try to force their own.

Don't trust any IoT thing on your main network. They're super chatty and don't get firmware updates often enough. The TV doesn't need to phone home ten times every hour.
