It'd be compatible (or trivially close) to most of the software that is required to make it work. Which is to say the cost of implementation would be low - not the case with ipv6.

Ah, I see we've discovered that yet another element of our EU membership has needed reconstituting after we've found life lacks a certain something after leaving. Ho hum.

Fabulous book, I found it in a public library when I was 15 or so and it was a hell of an education. Not least because I was already reading about tor and i2p. I'd recommend it to anyone - the story about Phil Zimmerman printing the co

What I'm taking from this: switch to IPv6 and you can do a little bit to devalue an asset held by AWS. Honestly, I've never had such a strong incentive.

The workers united will never be defeated! Good for them. They should unionise really, but actions like this are incredible and admirable. It is very heartening to see any group of workers defend themselves and their working conditions like

Custodial sentences already do punish families when they apply to anyone whose presence (or labour!) will be missed. This is one of the many problems of prison, namely, how can it be just to punish families who have not been party to a crim

Google aren't doing it out of the kindness of their hearts. Dominating the browser market means de facto free reign on setting standards. Chrome isn't a nice freebie, it is the most important moat Google has for its AF business. W

I've always wanted to know if anyone has studied the psychological difficulties in establishing exercise routines in people suffering from these afflictions. My experience has been finding the motivation is incredibly hard.

No doubt, but at least in the UK nobody is forcing ISPs to modernise their infrastructure because competition seems to be entirely on price rather than service.

Nuclear can't do peak load scaling and is less consistent than you might think for baseload. You might benefit from looking at systems like Compressed Air Energy Storage. Highly responsive, compatible with CHP, virtually no scarce mate

Remember folks, you can strike back: ditch your car, ditch your gas cooker, get solar panels, get batteries, use less energy, get a heat pump. Change your life to be healthier and deprive these animals of profit.
