You can’t have UDP and TCP on the same port? I don’t think that makes sense, I have DNS listening on UDP and TCP both on port 53.

Well the economic reality will be improving in the next 6-12 months, right after Trump takes power.

This is what always happens: some Republican becomes president, trashes the economy then when Democrats take power they’re on cleanup duty. But of course the results take longer than four years, so another idiot is elected into office and the pattern starts all over again. Republicans take credit for their predecessor’s economy and people shit all over Democrats.

This pattern has been happening for as long as I can remember (I’m 35); it baffles me that no one else sees it.

How have macOS (its correct name) and iOS been enshittified? As a daily driver of both I haven’t seen anywhere near the level of advertising and privacy violations on them as I’ve read about on other platforms.

Maybe DNS or IP blocking, but blocking only in the browser likely won’t be helpful as apps (on basically any platform) also track users by calling assets on their domains.

I’ve seen this a lot in fast food. Their order (for the exact same thing) would be impossible to make that fast fresh, so they lose their shit if you use your brain and give them the existing one that was made minutes (seconds?) ago.

Such simple-minded thinking.

We had another customer come in for like three days in a row ordering fries without salt, thinking they’re soooo smart (always during rush too when fries were super fresh). I watched them add salt to them after sitting down every time. On day four I got sick of them so I made fries without salt at the very start of rush and put them aside just so that when they did it again they got the shittiest, oldest fries.

Definitely not a professional move but I got my revenge.

I definitely think it’s cultural/regional. I was highly sarcastic with everyone in real life growing up, but moving across the country I came off as extremely rude and have met people from all different parts of the world that only appreciate certain nuances/layers of sarcasm and have adjusted myself accordingly.

Yes I have a DNS service listening on both UDP and TCP to respond to DNS queries from clients using the standard DNS port; crazy me. 🤪

One thing I want to bring up just so you’re conscious of it is WiFi calling.

I currently use Tailscale and a sophisticated setup to route traffic via commercial VPNs. I also do a ton of DNS ad/tracking blocking which Tailscale wasn’t really designed for (and requires a rat’s nest of routing, iptables and the like).

I’ve noticed I never receive incoming calls now even while attempting to send traffic to my carrier’s WiFi calling server (it’s just another traditional VPN server at a technical level) through the nearest Tailscale exit node.

All this is to say, if you want WiFi calling to work you should consider this. I believe it’s the same for Android and iPhone.

As for the traditional VPN bit I kind of discovered this a few years ago when using one of those mobile cellular gateways you can plug into your LAN (I lived in a dead zone). When looking up my current carrier’s WiFi calling server (a different carrier) I realized the port matches the same VPN thing they were doing on the cellular gateway, so I think it’s fairly common for wireless carriers to just use a VPN to get you into their backend.
