From what I can find online with a quick search, it looks like DNS cache is cleared when changing Private DNS modes. I’ll do a bit more digging in a bit, but it looks like it already handles that behind the scenes.
Edit: after a bit of research, it will clear system DNS cache on change (including simply changing DNS host address, not just enabling/disabling private DNS); but some apps keep internal DNS caches… that’s something I won’t be able to clear though.


It’s more of a “blacklist” that turns off (Automatic) private DNS when the phone connects to a WiFi with a stored SSID.
Useful for networks that don’t play well with your private DNS.


I am dyslexic, and I much prefer Atkinson Hyperlegible.
To be fait, dyslexia is quite variable, and mine is somewhat mild, but I like how readable yet elegant Atkinson is!


Faux news should never be trusted.


Sci-Fi is an extremely broad genre, and I was mostly trying to keep things vague and spoiler-free; but
this series did two main things that I’ve never seen at this level: creating a real sense of someplace “alien”, something that is so far from human comprehension that the characters AND the viewer are both totally at a loss; and I adored the way it recreated the visual style of classic Sci-Fi visual artists (mostly Bande Dessinée, including the likes of Moebius, Jodorowski, and the Métal Hurlant crowd).


Here’s a short selection of series that really stood out for me over the past few years.
All are there for different reasons, but they were all quite amazing IMHO. (also, I’ve included spoiler-free summaries 😉)
Devs
A software engineer investigates the secretive quantum computing division of her cutting-edge tech company after her boyfriend goes missing.
This felt like some of the best early Black Mirror episodes, stretched out over the length of a well-paced short TV series. In a way, it’s also similar to Severance, in the best of ways.
Our Flag Means Death
An 18th-century aristocrat abandons his life of luxury to become a pirate.
Funny, touching, extremely intelligent… if you like the work of Taika Waititi and his friends (What we do in the Shadows), this is a must-watch.
Scavengers Reign
When a deep-space freighter crashes on a beautiful but profoundly perilous alien planet, the scattered surviving crew must navigate a surreal, violently interconnected ecosystem in a desperate bid for rescue.
The best Sci-Fi series I’ve ever seen. This may be the first tv series I’ve seen that actually translates the vibe of some of the best Sci-Fi/space-opera writing I’ve read.
Killing Eve
A bored MI5 security officer and a glamorous, unpredictable assassin become locked in a deadly, globe-trotting game of cat-and-mouse.
Amazing actresses playing terrible people. It is so we’ll made I think everyone needs to watch this one.
Utopia (UK)
A group of online forum members unearths a bizarre graphic novel rumored to predict global disasters, suddenly finding themselves hunted by a ruthless, shadowy organization.
This show is SO unique. The way it looks, the vibe, the story… everything hits SO hard! Just the intro sequence had me HOOKED! (Note: it was never finished; but it does have a pretty good ending regardless).


Ah, so that’s what they did to the “president”!
I would recommend watching:
And What We Do In The Shadows, as others pointed out.

Yeah, the game mode is currently disabled because I’m working on updates, and it’s broken for the most part.
I’m planning on getting it up and running and starting to draw the pixel art assets soon, once I have finished writing the content for the site.
I edited the post to make this clearer.
As for my personal details; I’m OK with that stuff being online since it already is if you look hard enough; and have done some trickery to obfuscated it from most bots and scrapers, which is enough IMHO.
My issue with this illustration vs “the dress” is that in the dress, the background is bright, not a darker blue.
In theory, this illustration just serves to show that nobody should be seeing “the dress” as white and gold. Thy do, and that breaks my brain, but I still feel that there is no logical way for that to be justified (and yes, I read all the research).


Shrugs in Waterfox.


I’ll add to this that s01e01 (especially) is an absolute masterclass in character animation and motion. The whole series is incredibly well animated, but that first episode is clearly the place where they were experimenting with things, and it’s beautiful!
You can look up URL parameter structure online, but the short version is that you use ? if it is the first parameter (no other ? in the URL), or & otherwise.
So you can use:
https://google.com/?udm=14 and then search for something.https://google.com/?q=question&udm=14 by adding it with an & after an existing searchI recommend adding a custom search engine to your browser with this baked in. It’s incredibly easy in Firefox and it’s derivatives, with a ton of tutorials online.
Yep. There’s TONS of nerd tricks for this sort of stuff that would make people’s lives way easier, but are somehow reserved for geeks and nerds (like how you can actually make Windows decent by saying you’re in the EU and using O&O ShutUp10++, Power toys and that kind of stuff).
It’s a URL parameter that forces Google to only show search results, like it used to do. No AI crap, no “widgets”, no bullsh*t.
You can configure most browsers to include this in searches by default, effectively making Google decent again.

This.
When studying architecture, one of the things I discovered is how well modern buildings can fit together with pretty much any older style… but it has to be done with a little bit of finesse. The lack of a gate and ugly lawn here are pretty bad.
The house on the left though… That’s a crime against good taste.
Ok, I guess that works, my bad! I tend to see player characters more as embodiments not eye candy I guess ;)
