What you propose already exists and is called Teredo,6rd or other tunneling protocols (6to4/6rd is probably the best fit with getting a /48 per IPv4 address). Except they again map the IPv4 space into the suffix of the IPv6 addres

What does that gain you over the mapped suffix, where you embed the IPv4 address at the end? (which is used by NAT64, etc.)

Nope.. Haven't rebound anything. But strangely I very rarely need either of them, so haven't bothered so far to remember the shortcut (however I would indeed rebind them if that were to change). However.. point taken. The default

IP addresses should only be announced by one ASN at a time (regardless if that AS is multihomed or singlehomed). If that's not the case that's usually a hint of prefix hijacking.

Why not go for warm water cooling then (like SuperMUC[1] for example)? Should get you the same benefits as submerging it in oil without most of the drawbacks. [1] http://www.lrz.de/services/compute/supermuc/sy

Sure.. got a bunch of VMs&machines I can test from. But first order you could just traceroute with Sixxs[0]. That way you will at least know if the icmp6 packets reach their target unharmed. Your router might still be blocking all incom

I blame the reference (server) implementation leaving so much to be desired. Primarily stability. I tried running a silc server alongside my ircd for a while, but it never even reached a weeks worth of uptime without crashing (no matter if

> personally I'm not affected by the lack of IPv6 support Doesn't make it any less embarrassing though. For me personally, no provider is worth a second look that only provides legacy connectivity.

That's the way it's done in the Sweden, Norway and switzerland and their FTTH deployment is far ahead of large portions of europe. So yup.. I would say that open access works.

Once the fibre (if you don't buy junk) is in the ground upgrading becomes very very cheap. And given that the required access speeds aren't very high (100M-1G), they can be had rather cheaply second hand/new. So you can direc

Too bad in germany the big privately-owned ISP's (tier1 DTAG being among them) have very little interest in upgrading to new technologies, making city-owned ISPs pretty much your only option if you ever want to get FTTH or VDSL (the vi

Don't know about Rosetta, but at ESA LEON [1] is quite popular. But it is certainly custom hardware and a custom OS, because you need radiation-hardened chips (even for earth-satellites) and extreme reliability. [1] http://e

There is plenty of space to the bottom though.. Intel at least publishes datasheets, technical documentation, etc. without requiring signing a NDA for most of their chips.. So in my books they still do quite a bit better than Broadcom, Real

Actually directional antennas make no difference in regard to their allowed transmission power. The allowed power is specified as EIRP (Equivalent isotropically radiated power), which specifies the power a perfectly isotropic antenna emits.

Actually the MTA can use opportunistic TLS to transfer the mail. And in a lot of cases my mail server actually does. So it's only not encrypted in 20% of the time (depending on who you communicate with).

Since it's more work to coerce the mail provider into providing them the data, by finding something dirty about them or something like that. If they just send their subpoena without any of that, it will just end up in /dev/nu

If you are more interested in the hidden services aspect, did you also have a look at I2P [1]? It is more geared toward this aspect (exit nodes = outproxies in i2p-speak for example are just standard hidden services) [1] https://
