I needed a script to continuously monitor the queries handled by a local Pihole installation, and this didn't yet seem to exist for version 6, so I wrote one. Someone else might also have some use for it, so here you go: gist.github.com/floe/cd64ada1b

(Yes, it's not Codeberg, but they don't have gists (yet).)

Nachdem ich nun meinen #raspberrypi samt 8 TB HD fertig mit #NextCloud und #pihole installiert habe, versuche ich mich gerade daran, eine lesbare Version der deutschen #savewikipedia auf der #NextCloud zu installieren.
Ich habe zwar gesehen, wie man den Dump aus der #wikipedia zieht, aber keine Ahnung, ob es möglich ist, diesen dann auch lesbar auf der Cloud zu machen. Wenn irgendjemand eine Idee hat, würde ich mich sehr über Hinweise freuen.

I’m learning Ansible with a project to deploy and update my infrastructure of my homelab. This will include multiple steps (alias, ssh config, dns record, static ip, ssh key, apt cache,…)

Today, I warped a couple of modules. One of the give me trouble “DNS Records” on my Pihole. My loop editing the file creates Pi-hole instability and loses many of my records. The easy path is to edit a copy of the config and push it at the end :-)

(4/10) I've dabbled with #opnsense and #pihole. I'm actively using #pihole right now, lol.

I also did #android modding. From a young age of 12, I rooted my first #android phone and installed #cyanogenmod! Don't remember the model of the phone exactly but it was a fun yet scary times. But Cyanogenmod shut down in 2016 and now it's #lineageos! YAY! But I broke my phone somewhere around late 2020 or early 2021. I did get a smartphone again but am too lazy to mod it.

For those that #selfhost and have a #homelab and use something like a #minipc for #proxmox, #docker and other small projects e.g. #PiHole, Bluesky, Mastodon, VPN server, #Nextcloud, what hardware would you recommend? Budget around AUD4-500 (USD250-300), dual-NIC in case I do something routery with it later, doesn't need any wireless connectivity, not going to be connected to monitors or do any media serving/transcoding, won't be a NAS (but I reckon 512GB storage is minimum), power and noise not a problem as it'll be in a comms rack in garage (but would prefer not some huge 2U ProLiant or whatever just so it doesn't wrench it off the wall. I don't mind having "last year's" spec, or considering a refurbed SFF desktop I can load with RAM, storage and NICs.

It’s wild to me that it’s taken this long for me to sort out local hostnames on my LAN. I’ve always done without, using bare IPs and bookmarks like an animal 😅

Finally got this automated in #k3s and #opentofu by patching into my #pihole to register the hostname. Strange being able to then access the host on my phone of all places. I know this probably seems trivial to most people but it’s novel for me 😄

Next would be getting it to work through #tailscale with sidecars.. though I wonder what the benefit would be of that over just having a single Tailscale node in the cluster allowing routing to all k3s pods and their hostnames..

I have a home router & a portable 4g wifi router. Is it possible to setup a single pihole on a pizero to dynamically switch between my home router when I am home and the 4g router when I am out and about? Or am I going to have to run `pihole -r` each time i switch? #pihole #pizero
