You know you can just not use AI, right?

You can make a choice not to be part of this.

Even if your job uses it, YOU don’t have to in your normal life. You don’t have to let your kids use it.

You didn’t have it three years ago. You can just…be on Team Human. You can choose.

Does anyone want to do anything with phpgroups.org? I’ve owned the domain name for over 20 years, and I’m letting it expire in 14 days. If you want it, please get in touch.

The local 2600 group meeting happened to fall on #IPv6 day so on a lark I popped in. I mentioned this coincidence and had the following exchange:

"IPv6? Nobody uses that."
"Hi, I'm nobody."

Twice. I had that exchange twice.

Other conversations included things like the need to "claw back" unused IPv4 allocations.

It's like the last 15 years of my shouting from the rooftops haven't happened.

Happy 13th anniversary of World #IPv6 Launch Day
TIL the IANA has it's own OUI: 00:00:5E

FOR SALE: Hardcover copy of the ARRL handbook, 100th anniversary edition. New in wrap, never even removed from shipping box. $40 plus actual USPS shipping cost to you.

This is half the usual price of this huge book because I had The Dumb and accidentally ordered two copies for myself. So help me reduce the pain of my stupidity 😁 while you help yourself to a great deal.

Payment via PayPal or Venmo only, no holds. Price firm.

"Did you just tell me to go f**k myself?" "Yes, I believe I just did."

(Yes, I know, technically correct response. but c'mon, seriously, does this developer have any clue about the downstream effects of this issue?)

#1031046 - Only include in Bookworm with commitment to stable updates - Debian Bug report logs

It's about 2 weeks to the 15th anniversary of the start of my #IPv6 journey. I keep trying to write a post for the FPT blog about it, but every time I sit down to think about it I get thoroughly bummed out at the timeline in general.
