I'm glad to see somebody is getting some data on this, I feel bad memory is one of the most underrated issues in computing generally. I'd like to see a more detailed writeup on this, like a short whitepaper.

I was recently searching for NiMH charging ICs, turns out they basically don't exist. Most devices which charge their NiMH batteries implement low CC charging, which is slow. It's a shame, because NiMH batteries do have their adva

It's not wrong though. Besides North America, there are major carriers in India, France who use IPv6-only networks (with 464XLAT), and I know several South American and Asian countries have them as well. In fact, India is a world leade

By 2032, it's virtually certain IPv6 is going to be the majority protocol. For instance, see Google's numbers: https://www.google.com/intl/en/ipv6/statistics.html

You are correct, Czechia is a parliamentary democracy. Usually, the government is formed by the parties that together have a legislative majority in the lesser chamber. I should clarify that this is not a law, rather a "government deci

Allow me to append a short summary in English: - The Czech government adopted a new directive titled "The restart of DNSSEC and IPv6 enrollment in the government" - Until yesterday, no administration on the European continent has

Yes, I meant upload, sorry. Downloading from a page is trivial. I was more concerned ith the case of grandma sending a picture or similar.

I don't disagree, but few non-techies will be able to download an image off of an FTP server or mount an NFS share. Thats where such a service adds value.

Good question! It's spiking up on weekends, the reason for that is that corporate networks are not as incentivized as large public ISPs to adopt IPv6. They have a lot more customers and are more directly affected by IPv4 exhaustion, es

There's a management system that assigns IPs automatically, written in-house in the late 2000s, but yes, anything there can be manually overridden. He was probably diagnosing something earlier and forgot to clean up. Meanwhile, new stu

That's the most expensive resume you could probably have! I don't have access to a whole /22, but I'm now tempted to do this at a smaller scale, thanks for the idea!

No, in general, the smallest block of IPv6 addresses you can "own" is /24. You have to pay yearly fees to your RIR (Regional Internet Registry) as an ANS (Autonomous system). Think of it as owning land and paying a land tax.

Realistically, you should sell it while it's valuable. Take a look at IPv6 adoption. I know, I know, "IPv6 will never be here blah blah blah", so the naysayers say, but look at what Google is getting now, for instance: https

With /passkeys/, actually! It's more generic than just hardware keys. I don't know of any good implementation yet, but there were a few projects on github mentioned in some passkey-related discussions here. I do not use

As a person who habitualy closes everything, I often average around 5 tabs open, rarely going above 10. With so few open at a time, the giant column of vertical space for the tab tree would be a waste of screen real estate, which can be bet
