  • Just so you know, you can run pi-hole as a container as well

    About dhcp, I don’t know about unifi, but I guess in the firewall you can configure static dhcp leases. So son1 devices always get same ip. Then you can configure a hairpin port forwarding, so any requests for ports tcp/udp53 from his devices get forwarded to pi-hole. That is assuming that in the “general” dhcp config you assign an external dns.

    Otherwise you could try creating two different dhcp pools, one with pi-hole (and make sure son1 devices get a static lease in there) and one for everyone else.

    As a side note, I recommend looking into self hosting your piped instance, so even son2 can enjoy YouTube without all the ads! (And the tracking)






  • I use a rPi3 for this stuff exactly. I have about 300 movies in the folder (I know it sounds like a rookie number but I keep only stuff I know it will be watched) and kodi (through jellyfin addon) only takes a few seconds to load. My jellyfin server is not on the nas itself, it’s on a separate docker server for hw transcoding on the fly (and the nas has hdd drives).

    I used the piped addon for youtube.

    I use kore app on my phone to control kodi. Been working like this for about 7 years.

    Gather around kids, story time. It was 2002 and I had a desktop pc with two video cards, one Matrox with dual video output (they were pretty much the only consumer ones with that at the time) on AGP slot, and one “something” (probably ATI, it still had and RCA port) on PCI. So I installed gentoo (from stage1, as it was custom at the time) and fiddled around with xorg.conf to have two monitors output from the Matrox and a third (yes, I had 3 monitors) from the ATI.

    That’s when I understood the power of Linux (no way win2000 was able to do that).


  • Probably couldn’t find that many real unarmed Americans waiting properly for a real picture.

    And to preempt the comments: I’ve seen videos of people tearing down the doors for black friday. I’ve seen people going with open carry to buy TP during covid, openly stating “I’ll get my TP one way or another”. No way hungry armed people won’t escalate. Sure this is human nature, but Americans are the ones with more guns than eggs, and very divisive at this point in time
