“IPv4 is running out of IP addresses so therefore every local network needs to move to IPv6” is a full clown move.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•The 2025 version of "Please consider this environment before printing this email" should be "Please consider this environment before using A.I. to respond to this email"
2·10 months agoThe same as every new service over the past 20 years. Start with free, then when they’re hooked add the advertising, paywalls and ramp up the enshitification to the Max. You need to grab market share with a loss leader, dominate and become the defacto standard before you turn your users into money providers.

Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•When one earbud decides to not charge and I need to remove it from the case and put it back. And I even sometimes don't realize that...English
3·10 months agoCharging them 20x a week sounds ridiculous.
I want per device firewall and DNS rules for myself, the wife and the kids. With opnsense or pfsense I don’t believe this is possible with SLAAC, which is what android only supports.
Shove all devices on a flat network with no special firewall rules and you are probably golden. But trying to control your own network, last few times I’ve tried, is impossible.
They refuse to support DHCP6 and will only use SLAAC on Android devices.
Ipv6 is broken for those that want control over their home networks thanks to Google and terribly written RFCs.
All that was needed was an extra byte or two of address space, but no, some high and mighty evangelicals in their ivory towers built something that few people understand 30 years later. Their die hard fans are sure that this will be the year of ipv6. The Year of Linux on the Desktop will come 10 years before the year of ipv6.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•It's utterly hypocritical that the "defence" industry/sector is not called what it really is, the war industry.
1·10 months agoA way of keeping people employed usefully in many highly skilled jobs so you don’t need to give them social security payouts for being jobless. In this way it is a truly excellent idea.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•It's interesting that gun rights were sold on the basis of "resisting unlawful government." They seen to have _caused and supported_ unlawful government.
26·1 year agoWhat’s unlawful? You voted them in. Bearing arms against the government is unlawful. Anyone who thinks they can make a stand and shoot a few people to stand up to the government will find themselves arrested quickly and with all their neighbours supporting their arrest.
There is no amount of force that could reasonably be brought that would topple the government.

Most people think it’s a single executable that does everything and breaks unix philosophy, rather than a suite of tools that adhere to it, which is what it is.
