IS IT DNS?

The ultimate DNS troubleshooting tool. Think it might be DNS? It probably is! It's always DNS.

@madonius turn out the fan was smart-enabled and DNS failed during an update, leaving the fan bricked

#entropialeaks? Bitte was? Da ist man nicht da und ein PC brennt ab?
@madonius
Yes, computer, I feel the same way about DNS.

@madonius Fuck, that happened to a friend of mine who was sold a MOBILE processor (which is far too similar in size/dimensions to a desktop's) and performed the upgrade and powered it back on. Smoke, fire and out the fucking window!
Caps popped on the board too.

@madonius This reminds of windows forums and M$/google fanboys in all other forums.

All of them be like "You resolve all your Internet problems by switching your windoz/android network config to use google DNS"

Even a thread from 2017¹, on forums dedicated to telcos and Internet providers, about a mobile² network operator intercepting DNS requests to trusted 3rd-party revolvers and sending it to its own, has been hijacked to promote whatever propriotary app to "use google DNS instead"…

@madonius Not sure why big tech megacorpos' fanboys are so allergic to logic and common sense, and prefer to pretend they « found solutions » to technical issues before they would even start diagnosis…

1. Long before DoH/DoT has become widespread. So encorypted DNS erquests was not un option back then.
2. Restricted device, Having a local DNS resolver server is not an option.

@madonius Oh, neat. Is that the cause of the flames or the reason someone set them?
@madonius Yes, the resolver overheated.
