I prefer my MacBook, but the Thinkpad whatever I bought to have Windows and Linux available for some software I need occasionally has a fingerprint reader that worked out of the box on Ubuntu.

From what I understand, it depends on the stage. The United States Code certainly tracks any and all amendments, and you can fully trace which member introduced which amendment, when and where it passed, and even verbatim floor debate. Howe

Kind of but not really. The whole point of BGP is to influence your routing tables. This fundamentally makes very little sense to do when you have a bunch of routers whose routing policy you don't control between you and whoever you&#x

Even if yawning in public affected sexual fitness: how long has it been socially impolite to yawn in public? Evolution takes a rather long time in species with long reproductive cycles. Almost all mammals yawn, it would take significant gen

It's fine if all you need is a packet filter, but in 2026 I question that many production use cases can get away with just packet filter. As a host firewall, it's obviously fine, I assume your question is about using pf as a netwo

They’re both short stories, less than 10 minutes to read. If you’d like to read novel length LeGuin, “The Left Hand Of Darkness” and “The Dispossessed” are excellent. Much of her most lauded work shares a universe, but each novel stands alo

IP addresses in both protocols are just a sequence of bits. Combined with a subnet mask (or prefix length, the more modern term for the same concept) they divide into a network portion and a host portion. The former tells you what network t

It’s not _that_ different. Larger address space, more emphasis on multicast for some basic functions. If you understand those functions in IPv4, learning IPv6 is very straightforward. There’s some footguns once you get to enterprise scale d

But TCP or HTTP don’t care about the underlying transport. They’re higher level protocols that are payloads to either IPv4 or IPv6. It’s irrelevant what the transport is when dissecting HTTP and very little time should be spent on it. IPv4

It says network routing issue. Network routes consist of a network (a range of IPs) and a next hop to send traffic for that range to. These can overlap. Sometimes that’s desirable, sometimes it is not. When routers have two routes that are
