RFC 2182 details the operation and functionality of secondary DNS servers. Which defines/influences how resolvers behave with multiple DNS servers.

When you specify more than one DNS server for network clients, the order in which these servers are used is not random. The following sequence is observed:

Primary DNS Server: Clients will first attempt to use the primary DNS server specified in their network settings. This server is often considered the default.

Secondary DNS Server: If the primary DNS server is unavailable or unable to resolve a query, clients will then attempt to use the secondary DNS server. This server acts as a backup.

So in OPs case his Pihole will always be used if it’s available, and only when it’s not will the secondary be used.

I get the distinct feeling that the EU will have something to say about a US tech giant baking spyware into web browser that EU citizens use.

I first deployed ESX back in 2003 and from then on I was a huge fan of VMware. So, watching Broadcoms changes unfold is a little sad.

What i really wanted to ask is, for meduim to large enterprises that want on-prem infrastructures what are their options nowadays? I don’t work in this area any more so I’m out of touch.

You could also consider self employment/consultancy.

Would you recommend this if OP is in the UK?

They can’t stop synth meat coming in at the minute, but they can after they decide to Italeave… that doesn’t sound as good as Brexit, but I wouldn’t be surprised if it happened.

“He failed to properly disclose”, that’s one way of saying that he bareface lied.

Its OK though he’s going to pay some of it himself so that the tax payer only has to cough up £8k.

He should be forced to pay it all and sacked.

As far as Microsoft is concerned it looks like I now live in Ireland.

As someone who is sadly no longer part of the EEA, I wonder what would happen if you selected an EEA region during install, removed everything you want gone, then set your region properly?

Coersive Exclusion usually falls under the Equalities Act in the UK and against one of the protected criteria in the act but Nationwide Building Society recently lost a court case against them regarding forced office attendance. I don’t remember the specifics but it may he worth reading up on.

I will add, I’m no legal expert. My advice would be for your friend to speak to Citizens Advice Bureau or a solicitor to see whether they have a case.

This is more along the lines of their implementation of the Citrix Workplace App or Citrix Receiver.

This is Microsoft… What’s the catch?

This article is very specifically talking about coercive exclusion which is illegal in the UK under employment law. Maybe in other countries too.

This sort of thing needs stopped before it gets out of hand.

These are definitely an improvement over the current icons but while some of the design rules are evident, i think a bit of refining is in order.

The games and download folders both need a complete redesign as the ignore the design rules that the other folders use, and why are the symbols on each folder white except for the Mac folder?

This is great and a step in the right direction, roll on self-sufficient streets, villages, and towns.

Microsoft has openly encouraged piracy as far back as the 90s. I remember an interview with Gates where he said as much.

This has been part of Microsoft’s business model, especially for Windows and Office for 30 years. They actively encouraged pirating the software to ensure it cemented itself as the defacto standard in homes and offices with a view that one day users would have no choice but pay for it. For over 20 years now this has been part of the bigger desktop-as-a-service goal.

Soon businesses and home users will have no choice but to remotely log into a Windows system that is hosted in a datacentre and provided by Microsoft or one of their partners. Local installs will be a thing of the past. Think Citrix Presentation Server and thin clients which is where this whole idea started a long time ago.
