Today I saw a post on Hackaday about &quot;UDP broadcasting&quot; and #IPv6. Only that it barely touched upon UDP or broadcasting, and mostly served to reinforce long-dead or never-true assumptions that devs tend to have #IPv6. One citation is to a &quot;2020 rant&quot; that can be summarized as: addr6 too long, DNS broken, bad software. All of which are v4 faults projected onto v6. But my chief complaint is the idea that v6 subnetting has gone away? What?? How can that idea wi...

RE: https://mastodon.social/@arstechnica/117325746432437347 As with all days, today is an excellent time to move (or make a plan to move) from RSA digital signatures to anything else, whether PQC or not. EdDSA or ML-DSA are good candidates.

@nuintari I couldn&#39;t make it through more than two minutes of reading the sheer contradictions. I wish to give it no further consideration, except as an excellent example of how an onslaught of truly insane, possibly LLM generated slop is sufficient to tire out the BS-meters from anyone that still has a working one. I wonder if anyone has ever done fondue cheese with popcorn.

@nuintari Honestly, it&#39;s somewhat surprising they didn&#39;t reintroduce classful networking. Considering the trainwreck before us, they might as well have defined Class D, Class E, and Class F networks to be /96, /84, and /72, for no obvious reason whatsoever and in stark contravention to anything learned in the last 30 years. Probably the worst part is that people who don&#39;t know better will think that 8 &gt; 6 and therefore ask their network admins to implement this. G...

Some while ago -- I think it was an @azonenberg post -- I learned of a company that sells a fast-drying, mil-spec hand lotion for use in cleanrooms, that comes in an ESD-safe bottle and sold in gallon (3.78 L) amounts. Would this be overkill for my work-from-home desk job? Yes. Did I find a good deal online? Yes. And I can say that so far, I like it. https://rrlotion.com/product/ic-lotion-fragrance-free/

@jana @Bluewall @loos The proposal is entirely unserious. In only two minutes, I came across grossly incompatible statements like: &gt; The suite is 100% backward compatible. And: &gt; Organisations assign internal zone prefixes (127.1.0.0, 127.2.0.0 etc) to network zones and regions. More than once in my career, I have had to point to the 1993 RFC that reserves the entire 127.0.0.0/8 subnet for solely loopback. And this nonsense is still happening in 2026??
