I have a pihole setup running on a mini pc. It does not run on a UPS or battery backup. If my power goes out the mini pc shuts off and someone has to go turn it back on. How bad is it if I keep this option in my Asus router turned on?
If Advertise router's IP in addition to user-specified DNS is set to Yes in the router even if the pihole goes down the internet on all the devices keeps working until it comes up and pihole takes over. The question is how many things are actually resolving to the router's IP rather than the pihole's set DNS when the pihole is up and running?

Hello all,

I am very interested in learning Microsoft fabric end to end. I did some preliminary searching and its kind of overwhelming and theres no real basic place to start. I have zero experience with fabric or azure. The past 4 years of my career have been AWS + Snowflake only. I am looking for really basic tutorials that start with literally the layout of fabric and what things do. Additionally do I need to know Azure to work in fabric?

Thanks!

I am a senior data engineer and I work mostly with ETL Tools and a lot of advanced SQL. The company I work for does not like to use python because they find that theres too much of a learning curve if people leave so they love to use GUI or no code/low code etl tools instead (really dumb tbh). I can read python, and have a gist of whats going on. I have tried to self learn python few times over the past 2-3 years and I keep just forgetting it. I learned python/pandas library when I was in college since it was a class that taught it and then we did did projects with each lesson and that is how I learned it then but forgot it now. I use claude at work to build streamlit apps and automation using python. However, I am trying to look for new positions and I am starting to realize that not knowing python is making me a hit a brick wall because a lot of assessments require answering 1-2 questions in python. Does anyone know of actual classes that teach python and its not self taught? Free or paid I don't really care. If I have to pay for it I am fine with that but at this point I don't see a way for me to switch to another job without actually learning python and probably more specifically pyspark.

I finished the Udemy Tom Bailey course but I am unsure of what is a good test bank to practice questions. I have seen a lot of people post skillcertpro but I have also seen a lot of poeple say their questions are super old. Anyone have any recommendations for 2026? I want to take the test in the next 2-3 weeks, I use Snowflake daily.

I currently have the tv backlight 3 and govee led lamp. It’s not bright enough to cover the wall with lights really so I want to add more LEDs that sync together with dream view so the lights sync together off the tv. I want to know what other govee products I can add for more light.

I want to get meta raybans gen 1 to record at an upcoming wedding. I want to know if I can use the glasses without ever having to download meta's app to set it up. I want to just record video and extract the videos via my macbook or windows computer.
