I recently upgraded most of my ubuntu server instances to 26.04.1 and found on one of my instances that had both pihole and dnscrypt-proxy running, after the upgrade the override.conf file was purged. This meant dnscrypt-proxy took 53 causing FTL to fail to start. It was a quick fix but not something I expected to see. Just a heads up for others out there holding off.

I am looking for DAC options, preferable on the less expensive side that will accept SPDIF in and has a balanced output. 4.4mm, dual 1/4", or XLR output are all fine. It can run off a USB charger or have it's own internal ACDC power supply.

The output from this DAC will be fed into a mixer so total output power is not a high concern at it will always be ran at maximum.

I want to keep the hover feature but disable the album mode. On 4chan it often does not load albums correctly especially with videos and interferes with the already built in 4chanx script that offers a better album feature. The hover zoom is all I want on the site.

I have folders full of a lot of files. I will press a letter to quickly jump to that section and will just keep tapping the letter until I get to the folder I want to hit enter. Recently I noticed it has started randomly skipping folders. Previously this behavior when the virtual keyboard thing first came about that let you select umlaut letters which I disabled and fixed it. It has started again despite that "feature" being disabled.

Have you seen this bug? I didn't find any open bugs however the search on the bug site is lacking to say the least.

I have two VM hosts with identical instances on them. A pihole, DoH forwarder, AD server, and Searxng on each host.

The two piholes use keepaliveD to serve their quad 10s IP. This works great.

The ADs do their own clustering for DNS and DHCP via AD and built in services.

The DoH instances are not clustered however both piholes talk to both.

The Searxng instances were going to serve the 10.10.10.24 IP.

I wanted to setup the Searxng servers with keepaliveD. I configured everything and enabled the services and found that both DNS and access to my Searxng was dropping packets.

I looked over the logs of the Searxng servers and Pihole servers and found they were trying to crosstalk and interfering with each other. I could see all four servers showing invalid password. Both sets of servers were failing back and forth between the cluster members.

The password used in each cluster is different. I figured this would probably be a best practice since the services are unrelated. Should all instances use the same password even if they are unrelated? If they have the same password will they see that they are doing unrelated tasks and not interfere with each other?

I have a qbittorrent-nox installation that works great as it sits with the webui on port 8080. I have a signed cert and use HTTPS to connect to the webUI. The other day I thought, why don't I just move it over to 443 so I don't have to type the port anymore. When I did that I found qbittorrent-nox was no longer trying to open the port to listen on the machine. If I change it back to 8080 it works just fine. There are two places I change the port, one in the .service file using the --webui-port=443 and the qbittorrent.conf file WEBUI\Port=443. When they are set to 8080 and I restart the service, I can access the webui, when they are set to 443, I cannot. I used nmap to make sure the port was not open. There are no services on the machine using port 443. Below are excerpts or whole files from the system.

There was at one point a port of Katawa Crash to android however it has since disappeared from the store. I've looked up the APK and found it's gotten old enough to no longer be supported. I found the github for the decompiled KC flash game. Does anyone know if there is a similar github for the apk version?

I was looking through one of my piholes after noticing my searxng instance was showing up with blocked traffic. I found MoaAB was the list containing the offending domain. After looking at the info for the list, it hasn't been updated in seven months. This is the URL I have for the list. https://adblock.mahakala.is/

I created a feature request to have the pihole notify admins when a list has gone stale.

For the last year or so the UI was highly unresponsive. No mixture of resets and reflashes would fix it. You'd click something and come back ten minutes later to find it had finally loaded. Finally it seems to be fixed. Nice and responsive again, you click, it loads the page. Very nice, thank you dev.

Upgraded to Reborn from Mod. Current sieves. When I search a tag and go through the main results hovering each one to save it sometimes I get a sample image instead of the full size image. If I refresh the page I get the full size image.

Unfortunately every make uses soy based insulation for their wires. Rodents love this and eat the coating like cake. I've had my truck for six years, I drive it at least once a week, sometimes more. I spray it with peppermint as regularly as I remember.

However for the second time I've found a nest under the intake plenum and chewed wires. This one I discovered before a CEL let me know about it but after vacuuming out the dead leaves I saw some chewed wires.

So, how do you keep rodents out of your truck?

mpv is staying open after finishing a file. This behavior started today. I verified keep-open=yes was not in the .conf file. I also tried putting keep-open=no and it still stays open. I am running the latest build according to the updater script. --version does not print anything which could just be a windows limitation.

I loaded Yume Nikke to my iPad in a folder as a zip file. This is a zip of the 2007 0.10 game as it is installed on Windows.

I can play the game just fine if I go Main Menu > Load Core > EasyRPG > Load Content > Select my EasyRPG folder. This loads the EasyRPG Player interpreter which I can then select my zip file and play the game.

However for consoles such as NES, SNES, PSP, etc... Each system is listed out with all detected games listed for quick launch. What is RetroArch looking for in the zip file to know this needs to be loaded with EasyRPG?

The stock camera app is fine for basic photos but has become incredibly bloated in both size and features that don't really help take better pictures, especially the slopification of pictures.

What is your preferred camera app? I've been going back to Open Camera a bit but it can be a bit slow to capture an image.

I've always used Firefox since I could install uBO but it feels like it's getting slower and slower every version. Chrome is a privacy nightmare and no adblocking means it's not even an option to begin with.
