rethinking pi-hole (again)

Posted on 9 October 2018 By antipaucity 1 Comment on rethinking pi-hole (again)

About 2 years ago, I started running Pi-hole as a DNS resolver and ad-blocker. Then last year, I ditched it. After seeing a recent post by Troy Hunt, though, I thought it might be worth revisiting..but I needed a better way to control how it worked. Enter OpenVPN – a service I already run on…

pi-hole revisited

Posted on 11 August 201711 August 2017 By antipaucity 8 Comments on pi-hole revisited

Back in November, I was really up on Pi-hole. But after several more months of running it … I am far less psyched than I had been. I’m sure part of that is having gotten better internet services at my house – so the impact of ads is less noticeable. But a major part of…

update: keeping your let’s encrypt certs up-to-date

Posted on 10 July 20177 July 2017 By antipaucity 1 Comment on update: keeping your let’s encrypt certs up-to-date

ssl configuration for apache 2.4 on centos 7 with let’s encrypt

Posted on 7 July 201710 July 2017 By antipaucity 1 Comment on ssl configuration for apache 2.4 on centos 7 with let’s encrypt

In follow-up to previous posts I’ve had about SSL (specifically with Let’s Encrypt), here is the set of SSL configurations I use with all my sites. These, if used correctly, should score you an “A+” with no warnings from ssllabs.com. Note: I have an improved entropy package installed (twuewand). This is adapted from the Mozilla config…

vampires vs zombies

Posted on 23 November 2016 By antipaucity 1 Comment on vampires vs zombies

A few years ago I wrote about why I like good vampire and zombie stories. I had an epiphany this week related to that, that I thought you’d all find interesting. If vampires exist, zombies can not exist [long] in the same universe. Why? Because they’d be eliminating the only source of food for the…

a couple months late – but my prediction was pretty close

Posted on 2 April 20161 April 2016 By antipaucity No Comments on a couple months late – but my prediction was pretty close

Tesla’s Model 3 is debuting at $35,000. That is distinctly in the range of most “normal” people to obtain. It should be shipping sometime in 2017. I’d buy one.
