Getting butthurt and personal over an offhand remark in a humour community is really toxic and you should probably work on that.

I trust that you can be better, my good buddy ❤

That wouldn’t fly during a code review.

You recommend using AI to produce code you don’t understand?

It takes a couple of hours to learn the basics.

I agree, you’re right about the part after the pipe and RegalPotoo’s explanation was not entirely correct.

Only the part after the pipe character. The pipe character works as an “or” operator. RegalPotoo is right.

Hot take: You’re shit at coding if you can’t do regex.

Obsidian looks interesting.

Thanks for the suggestion, but it seems like the challenges with Komga would be similar to those when using Mylar. I’ll probably just go for a spreadsheet.

That was my first idea too, but last I checked it didn’t scrape much other than English editions (using Comicvine AFAIR) and had no way of manually adding stuff it can’t scrape.

Scraping metadata. Wish/purchase/pull lists. Keeping track of multiple editions. Perhaps even scraping entire collections/storylines into manageable lists?

At the very least a quick way to use my phone to check if I already have a specific comic when I’m at the store.

Grist might be useful if I end up setting more than a spreadsheet up, thanks.

Thanks for the suggestion. I think that might be too much work for my needs though.

Sounds like spam to me.

Sadly, I can not explain this to you any better.

DNS leaks normally occurs when your OS decides to use the wrong interface for DNS queries. It’s not magic, sorry.

There is a decent explanation here: https://www.top10vpn.com/what-is-a-vpn/vpn-leaks/

By doing a traceroute to the DNS IPs, you only confirm that traceroute goes through the VPN interface, not your DNS resolution.

Traceroute won’t show if you leak DNS requests outside of your VPN. (Unless you coincidentally also leak traffic, but then you’re pretty much just not using your VPN).

To confirm you’ll need to analyze your traffic-flow using a tool like tcpdump or Wireshark and check the source and destination for DNS traffic. If you see incoming DNS responses on an interface that is not your VPN-adaptor or maybe a loopback interface then you’re probably not tunnelling DNS through the VPN.

To answer the question in the headline: Regular DNS is unencrypted and quite easy to snoop on, so any node on the route between you and the DNS server will be able to read it if not using a VPN (i.e. DNS leak). Not sure what you mean by adversary, but it’s not like anyone on the internet can see your traffic. The DNS server may log your request and if you’re not on VPN, your IP address may be logged too.

Sure. It was a pleasure, but the thread is getting old and I’m done.

And he is both. GOP played dirty and got a yuge majority in the SCOTUS. This was under trump. Rest assured that as soon as he is declared president, any lawsuit against him will be swept away. He fullfills most Umberto Eco’s 14 features of fascism.

trump’s handling of classified information has already put US agents at risk and we don’t even know what else he has shared. His apparent inability to tell his cult to stop forcing their way into a US government building has cost lives. The whole abortion thing is downright medieval in some states now and will only get worse if he gets 4 more years (or however long it ends up being). And his love for putin and all things russia (“We have all the funding we need out of russia” - Remember this?) is a threat to Europe.

I’m sure there’s more, but I get tired.

I guess this is down to opinion then. I think the only type of joking and humour trump is capable of is putting other people down and I think that everyone should be wary of every single word coming out of his mouth (how difficult that might be) because he speaks his mind with very little filter.
