Possibly the most annoying Zoom feature of all time, trying to force me to use this stupid crap I very much am aware of and will absolutely never ever turn on. Just stop Zoom, it looks sad when you beg.

Control D update. 3.3m requests have gone through now for December. Nearly 1/3 of those have been blocked. That is wild to think that 1/3 of my traffic is ad tracking and logging. It makes sense, but still wild to see it put in an actual number. Well worth the $20 a year.

I have also been running these rules in Little Snitch as a bit of redundancy, and it is not surprising, considering how devs like to log things, but still somehow shocking just how much blocking it is doing.

I've had this same fridge at my desk since I got it discounted working at Best Buy in high school. It's collecting tech stickers like a laptop and feels like a fun time capsule. @puf.bsky.social sticker on there you might appreciate.

I decided to try the trial which is why I am able to see metrics. I also wanted to use more lists. For example it also shows which lists are capturing what percent of the blocking.

While also on the job market, I am also in the market for a cheese-based cult. Anything that comes with a supply.
