Yeah, as a photographer, I was guessing it’s not real. The lighting on the dog doesn’t match the weather.

Funny. I think the real reason is that it’s just not very good at making two people yet and gets confused sometimes. But I made about 50 other variants and I could barely get it to make Trump smile because I assume most of the training data is of him not smiling. I had to emphasize the term “smiling” like 4x to finally get it to work for Trump.

I’m not exactly sure how many queries, but it’s above the free limit. I purchased the pro plan. For $20 a year and it’s been a great service for me. I can send a referral code for 30% off (I think). I think adguard has a similar service.

I don’t think this accomplishes what he wants. The router DHCP will assign the second DNS address as you mention, but the devices will select one at random, not as a backup/failover. So what happens is that devices sometimes go through the Pi-hole and sometimes go through the secondary DNS address and receive ads. The only real way I’m aware of is to have a second pi-hole for redundancy. Personally, I decided to use a cloud based service (NextDNS) for this exact reason. I didn’t want my families internet to rely on devices that I host.
