DNS logging is the simplest way they'd track you, so you'd limit that

Reverse DNS lookups would be less precise as well as it'd just point to an IP owned by some cloud provider, so they'd have a hard time there

But yes a privacy respecting VPN is better, however I don't love browsing on a vpn as I hate captchas and like being able to access services I host on my local net

Gadgetbridge supports pebble

[–] mac@lemm.ee 1 points 3 months ago

Regarding charging - I charge my huawei watch fit 3 (that I got for like $150) every 2 weeks or so

I probably will end up getting the pebble as it appears I can interact with it on home assistant. Rough that I may have to wait till December though, it looks like

Lol, fml. Guess I'm buying a Repebble.

If it's open source, could someone potentially develop an app for it to control devices in home assistant? Would love to be able to control my room lights from my watch, and don't think it's possible on my Xiaomi watch fit 3 connected to gadgetbridge.

I recognize that there would also need to be work done in the app to support this as the watch only supports BLE

Price seems kinda steep for a device that doesn't have sleep/SpO2/Stress and HRV tracking capabilities

You know the app still works if you deny it loc permissions, right?

Thanks for the response!

I personally haven't rolled a k8s or k3s cluster, so it's always felt a bit abstract to me. I probably should though, to demystify it to myself in my work environment.

Complex is definitely what I have noticed when I see my devops team PR into the ingress directories.

I guess the abstract issue I see, that ties in to the meme i shared above, is that sometimes around deploys where we get blips of 503/4's and we appear to be unable to track them down. Is it the load balancer? Ingress? Kong? The fact that there is so many layers make infra issues rough to debug

Honestly, a lot of the time I don't understand why a lot of businesses use k8s.

At my company especially, we know almost exactly what our traffic will look like from 9am-5pm. We don't really need flexible scaling, yet we still use it because the technology is hyped. Similar to cloud, we certainly don't need to be spending as much as we do, but since everyone else is on or migrating to the cloud, we are as well.

Was about to post the same thing

You can also set it up to point at unbound for either recursive resolving of DNS, or resolving over HTTPS/TLS, as right now most DNS traffic is sent over unencrypted connections, meaning your ISP can see all of the domains you are resolving.
