Hi There. WELCOME!
Welcome to this site. This is my personal blog where I discuss tech and give out random rants.
I also plan to display current tech projects on this site.
Who am I?
Hi, my name is Ragib, and I am a tech geek. I am all about learning technology, and using it to share information.
During the day, I work as a Software Developer at a local IT company. Currently, I mainly work with web development using Python, Django, Html, CSS, JavaScript and jQuery. I also work extensively with React Native framework, for mobile app development. I hope to do some work in React JS as well, to gain a bit more front-end development experience. I also hope to dive a bit deeper into DevOps, Linux administration and container orchestration work.
As you can see, my development stack is less Enterprise-y, and more Open Source-ish.
I love doing what I do, and am one of the lucky few to end up getting paid for it.
When I am free, I use my time to learn as much about technology as possible, and also tinker with some side projects. Currently, I am interested in web and micro-services hosting, and the Linux OS. My focus is mainly on tech that I can deploy right away, to complement my current workflow.
I hope you have as much fun browsing the site, as I did writing them. Feel free to browse the site and drop a comment. I welcome any suggestions you might have for the site.
Cheers!

Hi,
Does the DNS still work?
Ragib Badaruddin
Hi,
I believe the dns should still work. I haven’t updated them in a while, but it should still run.
Eden
Hi,
Can you provide an email?
Because some ad slots are not blocked.
Ragib Badaruddin
Hi Eden,
Thanks for reminding me. I’ve updated the dns server just now. Should work better.
Eden
Hi,Can you block these?
ad.ettoday.net
api.zhy333.com
ssh.mi61l.cn
http://www.ailiyou1999.com
Thanks!
Ragib Badaruddin
Hi Eden,
I added these domains to my blacklist. I am not sure of the impact though. I have not visited any sites that show ads from any of these servers.
Please test them yourself, and inform me the outcome.
ad.ettoday.net
api.zhy333.com
ssh.mi61l.cn
www.ailiyou1999.com
Thanks.

Can you unblock adult content and just leave ads blocked?
Ragib Badaruddin
Hi Devilet,
Thanks for reaching out. I will consider unblocking adult content.
It’s gonna cost me extra to run separate servers, so let me think about it first.
Eden
Hi,
Can you fine-tune your filtering rules?
https://github.com/ragibkl/adblock-dns-server/blob/master/compiler/data/blacklist-src-urls.txt
You can add these two rules:
https://github.com/Spam404/lists/blob/master/main-blacklist.txt
https://280blocker.net/files/280blocker_domain.txt
Regarding EnergizedProtection, you can consider using two alternatives:
Spark&Porn
blahdns’ “blacklist.txt” can be removed because the content “adsblock.txt” seems to contain it.
thank you.
Ragib Badaruddin
Hi Eden,
I created an issue on github to track this. https://github.com/ragibkl/adblock-dns-server/issues/15
Thanks for feedback on the two new rules. I will try adding them.
Thanks for feedback on the blahdns. I will remove blahdns blacklist.txt
Regarding EnergizedProtection, I think I’m using blu now. It should be pretty balanced.
Why do you want me to switch to Spark? is blu too strict?
I can add EnergizedProtection->Porn list as well.
Eden
There is no other reason, but if you can, you can consider using the unified version, because the content is complete and rich.
EnergizedProtection->unified
thank you!

Hi Eden,
Thanks to your suggestion, this is done now. The block list is much bigger now.
In future, do keep the suggestion coming if you have any.
