Creating a custom DNS to bypass internet filter

Not sure if its the right subreddit to ask, but I have access to a wifi that allows you to browse only certain websites line instagram, whatsapp, .. I think they filter for the domain name since if I try to open instagram through its ip it gets redirectes to the "blocked page" website. Is it possible to self host a DNS or smth like that that would make instagram.com point to something like reddit.com? would that even work?

Why is my VM so slow?

I have a MacBook Air with an external monitor, and I am running Kali Linux on a VM in VirtualBox. However, the virtual machine is so slow and laggy that it ends up being a huge pain to do anything in. I have the CPU set to 2 CPUs and the memory to 2048 on virtualbox settings. Is there a way to make it less laggy?

Good beginner job in the tech field for someone nearly of working age?

Hey everyone! I won’t disclose my exact age (for obvious reasons), just know that I am not yet of working age. I’ve been programming for a few years now (Mainly Python, Java, and some Lua), and I have partook in a few CTFs. I don’t know if I should try to get an internship at a tech company, or immediately go for a paying job like a help-desk. This will probably just be a summer job, as I’m still in school, so it can’t be long term. I’m not very much interested in the money, it’d just be a nice extra; I’m more in it to get experience and do what I enjoy most.

External DNS Pentest
https://www.reddit.com/r/Pentesting/comments/wqt4id/external_dns_pentest/

<!-- SC_OFF -->Hey fellow testers, I'm doing external DNS testing for my company. I tried using Fierce to automate the testing but seems like it's not working. I did nmap and found out port 53 is closed. What else I can do to perform external DNS pentest? If there's anything I'm doing wrong, enlighten me, please. <!-- SC_ON --> submitted by /u/Puzzleheaded-Try5749 (https://www.reddit.com/user/Puzzleheaded-Try5749)
