There's only a very few places where typing IP addresses actually makes sense. Configuring DNS is the main one. Trying to isolate problems is another - if you can ping 8.8.8.8 but not google.com you can reasonably infer…
How would changes not have been required in the ISPs? An IPv4 router wouldn't know what to do with a 4.4 packet. At best, it'd route it to the wrong place - 1.2.3.4.5.6.7.8 and 5.6.7.8 are totally different hosts that…
Yeah, it's not always, but for most home networks it probably is. Ideally they'd give you a /56 or even a /48, but giving those on request and a /60 by default is fine.
It probably was, seeing as Plan 9 was named after a movie.
This article is kinda garbage, it gets simple facts wrong in the first sentence of the abstract (and again in the second sentence of the article): Plan 9 is not Unix. At all. It shares some ideas with it sure, but if…
Not if you want SLAAC to work, no.
How are they blocking? You're just behind a NAT64, which is no worse than NAT44, with the bonus of having actual connectivity on the IPv6 side.
Even? /60 should be the minimum, even home users usually have a couple subnets (guest networks for example, sometimes one for the router's WAN link) and you want the boundary to be on a nybble boundary
IPv6 was designed in the late 80s/early 90s, before home users had internet access. At the time there was serious debate over switching to the OSI stack instead. You're showing your lack of history knowledge more than…
Why are you using IP addresses directly? That's what DNS is for. There's even mDNS for in simple home networks. (The DHCP thing is valid but that's one single android dev being an ass who can't read deciding that it…
NAT is neither a privacy nor security feature, what are you talking about? Have you actually tested what your CPE does when it gets packets addressed to internal IPs from the WAN port? Almost every time, the answer is…
Because on the wire it's encoded as four bytes. If you can make eight binary digits count up to 999, you can do a lot more than just make IPv4 last longer.
Indeed, your system would require NAT4.44 as a transition mechanism, just like NAT64 is needed now. It gets no benefit over IPv6, and none of the other benefits like SLAAC. So, what's the point? It's no easier to…
it's ::ffff:1.2.3.4, so that loopback can be ::1. But yeah same idea.
so somehow 0.0.0.0.8.8.8.8 is an extension of the legacy address 8.8.8.8, and ::ffff:8.8.8.8 isn't?
I suspect it's to make business plans artificially more appealing. After all, why offer a better service when instead you can just make your cheaper one worse?
Why do you care how long the addresses are? That's what DNS is for. Within a link - most home networks are only one, and those are the ones that need to be simplest - there's even mDNS.
Can we at least require you not to call yourself 'whatever news' if you're not at least trying to present factual information?
On what grounds? Caveat emptor was the rule for a long, long time. It was only later when regulation and standards started coming into play that it was a thing. The courts can't just declare a legal thing to be bad.
Or it's checking the monotonic time, not using the synchronized time (which is probably recorded as an offset anyway)
I'm comparing the lowest models that meet my needs. Why should I have to pretend there's not cheaper, less powerful handsets that can fulfill my needs just to make Apple look better? (Granted, my strict needs could be…
So? The entire promise of computers is programability. If you can't make it do what you want it to do, you might as well just get an old nokia.
Apple is awful at providing a reasonable spread of devices though. There's no $50 iphone that does everything I need, I'd have to spend at least ten times that. Then I'd have to pay MORE to be able to develop and run my…
So, you want to put that much power into Apple's hands? How do you expect them to remain on your side in that case?
That's why we never had to do anything to address rampant fraud, cutting food with dangerous materials, straight up lying about what you're selling, con artists, snake oil salesmen, or irresponsible management of…
