From my time there, this is for the internal prod network. Corporate networking was dual stack (which was pretty useful because it was common for v4 or v6 to break, but usually not at the same time)

In the US, the ADA says you have to make reasonable accomodations, and it allows for private enforcement, so it's generally followed.

As a sometimes chatterer, it's a mix of complaining about the annoying changes in v6 that weren't just lengthening the address fields, pointing out that the migration is taking forever, and implying a less disruptive design could

Adding on. Jio was a late entrant, so they could not get significant ipv4 address space without great expense. They deployed as mostly v6 with a tiny CGNAT. They also had an extensive 'pre-release' offering at zero cost to subscri

I mean... I could have asked, and they might have been able to transfer, but there's no user accessible way to make it happen, and you can't (or couldn't) make a new order while one was pending. But I was coming back from k

Yeah, but there's a risk that people won't come back because it's exhausting. I ordered from the wrong location once, and it's fine, they don't work the order until you arrive, and they refund it at the end of the d

It's easy and cheap to determine the original carrier (or its sucessor) for a US phone number. It costs money to do a porting lookup to determine the current carrier. Most of the reason to deny voip users is that many voip services giv

You can use satellite backhaul for a 5G tower. And I'm sure there are many towers with satellite backhaul. But, once you start having multiple towers near by, you are going to link those up terrestrially (wireless or not) and pretty

IMHO, you can't do blazingly fast iteration over folders with small files in Windows, because every open is hooked by the anti-virus, and there goes your performance.

An iPhone with no apps is pretty hard to use. A mac doesn't need the app store, but when I last set one up, I needed to install the devtools from the appstore to bootstrap macports or whatever, so that pushed me into an account.
