I’m a programmer and amateur radio operator.
It automatically replies when it can read/summarize a site, but that isn’t always possible (maybe it has problems with some paywalls).
If you decide to set up an SDR for ADS-B, you might want to consider setting up a WebSDR with something like OpenWebRX. This would let people listen to all the signals in the bandwidth that you set.
If you’re interested, receiverbook.de is a list of most WebSDRs.
I’d like to elaborate a bit on why DNS can be used to track you.
Nearly all web traffic is encrypted (https), you can check by looking at the padlock next to the URL in your browser. But DNS requests aren’t encrypted by default. This means anyone, most likely your ISP our the admin of your home network, can see what domains you’re accessing. That means just google.com, lemmy.world, etc. and not lemmy.world/post/… This isn’t a huge amount of info, but it does tell anyone who’s looking approximately what you’re doing (googling something, looking at lemmy, etc.).
To fix that there are a few different ways to encrypt DNS requests, the most common of which (afaik) is DNS over HTTPS, which will encrypt DNS requests like any other web request your browser makes. I don’t know why this hasn’t been made the default yet. Firefox has a setting for DNS over HTTPS, it calls it secure DNS.
Yes, but it looks like it’s been inactive for a while:
I know as little as you do about selfhosting, but I just want to point out, if ip a
generates a convoluted/confusing output, I would recommend using hostname -I
instead. It just prints out all your IP-addresses, with no additional info.
You can do this in VLC, though it’s not very practical. VLC’s equalizer has a preamp slider, it’s just not great if you want to change it all the time.
