  • I have a lot of domains on my lists, I imported quite a few. So to be fair I may be the one causing the issues.

    I may just disable the ones I imported for a while and see if anything changes.

    Looking at the screenshots, it looks like you can manage some lists and apply block and allows.

    But yes, what is the difference? He literally says NextDNS is basically a Saas Pi-Hole.

    Sounds like this is just an advert for NextDNS. Who keeps breaking their Pi-Hole and how?

    EDIT

    Looks like Pi-Hole just got an update, the UI looks a bit different.

    I’ve disabled all my adlists but the default one, gone from 600k+ domains down to 125k. I’ll see if it improves things.

    I’ve got a friend coming over who complains about my connection, she uses Apple products where I have Windows and my phone is Android and it seems to cause her problems. She is also constantly on Facebook, Instagram and a few other platforms that rely on spying on you. So she is a great test as well.















  • First I’ve heard of it.

    But then again I grew up in South Africa, I doubt Gillette would send us anything for free.

    It is a smart way to get young men hooked on their product so that they never try the competition. The blades I use are Astra which are made by the same company making Gillette blades, Procter & Gamble.

    Hell, I actually did some work at their factory in Berlin many years ago and they were very specific about their name, it was drilled into me to use ‘&’ and not ‘and’.


  • When the Mach 3 launched, the women in my family were taking the mens’ razors and saying how crappie their own women’s razors were. The Mach 3 was a big hit.

    I still use it myself. I shave my head and the 3 blades is much easier to clean out. I do use a safety razor on my head first to do most of the work because the blades are dirt cheap. About £11 for 100 and they are made by Gillette as well. I bought these blades years ago and still got about 15 left.

    I use the Mach 3 to go over again to catch any hair I may have missed. I use it on my neck as well. Those multi-blades are a gimmick and I swear it’s to drive up prices.

    I also use shaving oil instead of gel or cream. A single bottle lasts me months, a big saving there as well.
