As an ex Red Hatter (pre IBM) this feels like top-down IBM influence, and against the always open spirit of the old Red Hat.

Hmm, will it turn out to be DNS?

Me too. Even if you have a great theme in VSC you're still stuck with the sidebar and the bad Microsoft-y typography choices everywhere.

Over the past year I've tried a few times to switch from Atom to VS Code, but there's always a little thing that brings me back. With effort most of the functionality could be reproduced in VSC, but the stupid MS typography can't be themed away.

Re:Bunny DNS – A scriptable DNS platform

Years ago I did school IT, during the time when all websites moved to SSL-only. We used to filter websites easily with Squid and something called Dan's Guardian. When Google switched to SSL-only we had to change. We could have required everyone to install certificates, but instead we used PowerDNS with Lua to force all Google search related queries to answer with a Google-provided CNAME.

I have to get up and touch the wall to control my lights, which sucks. Seriously, though with small kids being able to do certain things without hands is pretty handy.

It's possible to "catch" the Define Settings button by moving the mouse back and forth with the right timing. eg starting left, going right and immediately back.

Funny enough he went through the trouble to make sure tabbing works, and that the bottom url indicator is readable. If you tab to "Define Settings" you can in fact disable analytics, and "Accept All" changes to "Accept".
