> there is no invasion. Just a special ops kidnapping When one nation’s military illegally enters another nation’s sovereign territory to carry out military actions, that’s usually called an invasion.

Where are you getting that claim from? Google’s page says “users that access Google over IPv6”. To me the specifically does not say, “could you” reach the servers but “did you”.

I have a lot of trouble believing IPv6 matters here. Your link only talks about bandwidth (an extra 8kbps) and doesn’t even mention latency. Edit: NAT also adds measurable latency. If anything I’d think avoiding NAT might actually make IPv6

I didn’t say it was an issue inherent to IPv6. But it is a practical issue with IPv6.

> those bloated packets are death for many modern applications like VoIP. Huh? The packet sizes aren’t that much different and VOIP is hardly a taxing application at this point anyway. VOIP needs barely over dial-up level bandwidth.

How do you look at a chart showing Google access is 50% IPv6 and then proclaim that clearly NAT “won out”? In what world is 50% market share a loss?

I have fiber to my house and no native IPv6 support. I did some research and it seems there is a way to enable IPv6, but it’s janky and just tunnels over IPv4 so what’s the point? I would love for IPv6 to actually take off but somehow it fe

I’m sure that’s also a factor. But I do think it’s one of many. Non-techies often take their fashion cues from people they admire. If we assume techies do the same, then they will likely be looking up to people who have largely rejected fas

I think most people in general have no taste. But taste is also so subjective that it’s hard to meaningfully discuss. Everyone probably thinks they have great taste. Part of the Silicon Valley ethos (and techie ethos in general) is the reje

Those cheap carbide sharpeners take literally seconds to sharpen with, but you’re probably right.

For people like this, the best path is probably to buy cheap knives and a one of those cheap knife sharpeners that destroys the blade over time. One of those angled carbide sharpeners believe a terrible edge, but better than a dull knife.

If your blade is dull enough you’ll be using excess force to cut. People cut themselves regularly because they are using too much force and the thing they are trying to cut shifts and suddenly they have a finger under the blade. Or they are

Knife sharpness safety is a bell curve. If your knife is sharp enough you will eventually cut the shit out of yourself because it slices so easily. You’re essentially waving around an 8 inch razor blade. If your knife is dull enough you wil
