~~On the other hand, other than the one page shilling a Windows server specifically, there's nothing else in the content of the story itself indicating that it is specifically a Windows server and not whatever else. Take out that one page and there's no mention of Windows or Microsoft.~~

Edit: Nevermind, missed the part on the last page too. Bleh.

Still easy enough to cross out the windows name drops

That is our treasure box where we store and use 64GB of DDR5 RAM.

ELI5 for someone who's too busy Doordashing to Google what these do?

[–] Sludge@sh.itjust.works 12 points 2 days ago

Pihole is like a network wide ad/telemetry block and unbound is a recursive dns server, so rather than using cloud flare or Google to connect to a web address, it can cache or save those sites after you connect to them once with the help of one of those external parties that you visit and help to make the connection without broadcasting to other companies that you're trying to connect to that site.

I'd say that's it in a nutshell but I'm sure someone more technical will tell me why I'm wrong

It’s “the cloud” honey.

I would have needed something like that. My son had a phase where he got scared when my server's hard drive made noises. Now he's luckily used to it.
