USB-A: the 4 dimensional port.

I see it just gets incorporated into their business model.

I’d argue it would meaningfully suppress the incentive for planned obsolescence for good faith manufacturers, and it opens up repurposing of equipment from less reputable entities.

This perspective betrays a complete lack of understanding and experience of being chronically suicidal. Inflicting the responsibility of how others conduct themselves on someone, particularly one in a vulnerable state, is beyond repugnant.

The only effective mechanism for prevention of chronic suicidality is to create an environment in which one can actively, freely, and legitimately choose to participate when they’re at their most vulnerable.

It could be a real address, but not within a /24, nor publicly routable.

I call them compensators.

Their size is inversely proportional to the capacity of the user’s head.

Some are big enough to replace both.

Schizophrenic, Bronze Age, fan fiction has a lot to answer for.

In Australia it’s 2 supermarkets and 4 banks.

Economics is the control system which filled the void in society vacated by religion after the enlightenment.

An arbitrary set of rules, conjured by the ruling class, obfuscated and protected from scrutiny, and imposed on the weary masses.

Finance, an arbitrary subset of mathematics, serves as its mythology.

Banks and financial institutions serve as its churches and cathedrals.

Economists serve as its priests.

God replaced by GDP.

Digging in on the wrong side of history is a core tenet of conservatism.

Corporations are the only ‘persons’ which should be subjected to capital punishment.

Make the shareholders responsible for the morality of the corporation.

If one has been found to have acted in a sufficiently harmful manner to the society within which it resides, its assets and capital should be seized, auctioned off or destroyed, and the proceeds distributed to their victims.

All of those concepts were spawned from lead-addled generations, microplastics are their unleaded gift to their progeny.

I use ULA prefixes to ensure the management interfaces of my devices don’t leak via public routes.

It’s one of the unique parts of the standard IPv6 stack not back ported to IPv4, that an interface on any host can be configured with multiple addresses. It permits functional isolation with the default routing logic.

IPv6 is far from perfect, but the majority of the arguments I’ve seen against deploying it are a mixture of laziness, wilful ignorance, and terminal incuriosity.
