On the contrary, the numbers of routes decline. Since you get a single IPv6 assignment, often a /48, you can summarize all your networks to that assignment. IPv4 is a mess in this regard. Small assignments to ISP's and businesses

Vaccinations do reduce sick leave as vaccinated people get infected and thus sick a whole lot less like iamdelirium already said. Here in the Netherlands we had a similar uprising of Covid like Portugal. You can see the distribution of vacc

That's what the self destruct is for. If you are yanked from your laptop or vice versa the laptop will crypto shred its disk and wipe RAM. Your attackers can hit you till you die but you will not be able to reverse it.

Wait, what ? Mozilla is taking already more than 8 years to add SHA-2 support to mozilla::pkix's OCSP implementation ? This saddens me, the devs seem overloaded. As the only other open alternative to Chrome based browsers I hope they c

Wifi adapters are cheap and everywhere. For 5G tot surpass wifi it will have to match that. Laptops with 5G are not that common yet. ESP like controllers with 5G I haven't seen yet. One of the advantages is 5G operating outside of the

Private cloud can be big Apex. Doesn't have to be though. The IBM's an HPE's of this world are perfectly happy to sell you PAYGO on prem solutions. Or you can lease the hardware.

Also $80 inflation adjusted to 2015 is about $600. So not far of the $700 mark of the "dramatic price increase" in the article. See https://www.in2013dollars.com/us/inflation/1965?endYear=2015... I do be

For DNS there is rfc6106. And for NTP and other services there is service discovery. Why would you set your own NTP server with DHCP ? Many clients like Android, iOS, Linux and Macos will connect to NITZ or predefined NTP server anyway and

Why would you care what address your PC is using ? If your ISP gives you an other IPv6 assignment your router should just advertise that and your PC will use it. You wouldn't even notice. If your router doesn't do that is has a ba

Strange that that article states "There's no single English word which is an exact equivalent of 'vorsprung'". Vorsprung is lead. Durch is harder in my opinion. Can be translate as "by" or "because of

Indeed. Back when dialup internet was the norm I had the opinion that after the 57k6 faster access at home would take ages and require new infrastructure to the homes since the phone system was build for low bandwidth voice. With 4kHz bandw

Today people don't even remember DNS names anymore. They just use the search engine/advertisement provider of choice. DNS is of course still very useful to separate service names from physical architecture so you can move stuff ar

It would be weird if Royal Dutch Shell blacklisted the Netherlands. They might very well do a Unilever [1] and re-register as a UK only business. But since this is also based on EU law they'd basically have to leave all their business
