  • As someone whose had the priviledge working both in a call centre & retail for several years… you’re wrong.

    Most is local colloquialisms, where regions sometimes substitute words or phrases for others.

    And then there’s the “native English speakers” that are straight up idiots, and butchering the language constantly…

    The amount of South Londoners that say “arced” instead of “asked” is too damn high.











  • Sounds like the DNS TTL (Time to Live) is set extremely low, preventing clients caching the record. Each time your browser makes a request (such as updating the graphs), it’s submitting a new DNS query each time.

    According to this post, this is intentional behaviour for PiHole to support situations where you change a domain from the block to allowed. The same post also references the necessary file modifications, should you wish to extend the TTL regardless.

    The only downside you’ll notice is a delay after whitlisting a domain, and it actually being unblocked. You’ll need to wait for the TTL to expire. Setting it to something like 15 minutes would be a reasonable compromise.
