  • It’s not all that hard.

    Youll need a pihole and a micro SD card for it. On that micro SD you’re going to install the operating system. There is a guide for how to do this on the raspberry pi website. As part of that installation, you can tell the installer to also install an SSH server. That will allow you to connect remotely. You can also have the installer create a user account for you. Do that.

    Once you’ve done that you’ll put the SD card into the pihole and plug in the pihole. It should boot from the SD card. Plug the pihole into your router via ether net, this is very important. It guarantees it will get an IP address.

    Check your router for the pihole. You should see it. Grab it’s ip address, and use whatever SSH client you like. On windows I like mRemoteNG. SSH into your pis IP address using the username and password you made earlier, when you installed the OS. Then, Google pihole. Follow the install directions on the pihole. Once it’s set up, set your router to use it for DNS.

    That’s all!











  • I would argue that if there’s a product that nobody knows exist that’s not necessarily because we need to allow constant intrusive ads, and more indicative that people don’t actually need the product.

    I want to say that in any given day, 60% of the ads I see are from big, well known companies who don’t need me to see them to know they exist. Shit like Liberty Mutual (I swear I see more of their ads than anyone else and THEY ARE ALREADY MY INSURANCE PROVIDER), Coke, Pepsi, etc. 39.9% of the remaining 40% are advertisements for shit that I just don’t care about. I don’t care about the newest tech toys. I don’t care about the newest car mods, or random shit I can put on my desk, or stupid extra kitchen gadgets. Fully 40% of the ads I see are trying to convince me that I should buy a product that I straight up don’t need because the ad looked cool. Why should those ads be allowed to exist? Why should I be constantly bombarded with ads for services that I either already know plenty about or for things that are trying to manufacture a reason for their existence?

    Only about 0.5% of the ads I see are actually for things I did know know about and that seem useful to me, or like something I would like. Probably even less than that, I’m drunk rn and estimating.


  • Until the dude making all of these claims presents actual proof I don’t believe a word of it. So far all he has is hearsay, he can’t identify the people who told him things, the few people who he did identify haven’t come forward to my knowledge, and all of the documents he claims to have are top secret and not releasable to the public.

    When you’re making a claim as big as “aliens are here and the government has their ships and some bodies from them and is also covering it up,” you need to provide more evidence than “I know because multiple people have told me but I’m not allowed to say who, also ive never seen them, and I have documents to prove it but you can’t see them because the government says so.”
