I was lucky to never have properly learned to touch type on QWERTY in the first place, I had key positions memorized but I always used my index fingers - it actually hindered me from touch typing as the bad habit would always creep back up.

What's the die size of the ADL silicon? I know my 5800X will rocket up past 70C even on a custom loop with 30C water temps because the chiplets are so small and power dense that there's not enough surface area to transfer heat any

I use SLAAC - I actually use my main switch (Juniper EX2300) to advertise those since it can handle routing the inter-vlan traffic on my network, and then my router/firewall handles the public prefixes.

The solution I've come up with here is to use ULA's in addition to the public prefix. If my public prefix changes it can cause a temporary disruption in service availability from outside my home, but on the inside everything uses

There’s also the issue that newer cores run much hotter than ever before. The chiplets in my new Ryzen 7 5800X are so small that even my custom water loop can only do so much with the temperatures as there just isn’t enough surface area for

Go buy a couple of singles off iTunes over a couple of days and see how long it takes to hit your card. Apple has always deferred charging cards to minimize processing fees by bundling multiple purchases together.

I fully agree that giving PI blocks out like candy is not the ideal solution - but the solutions for dealing with multiple PA spaces are woefully inadequate right now. I’d really like to see the IETF step in here and come up with some worka

It’s not - but that doesn’t mean it’s a good solution. Clients should be able to know their globally routable address and ULA with NPTv6 seriously fucks with that, so I’m not a fan.

Not GP, but I think IPv6 is generally fine. The big issue is around mid sized enterprises, where multi homing becomes a need and for so long PI address space was reserved for peering-sizes entities. This makes sense from the perspective of
