Little Interest In Next-Gen Internet

Ant wrote in to mention a Computerworld article that is reporting on the slow acceptance of the IPv6 version of the internet. From the article: "Information Technology (IT) decision-makers, in U.S. businesses and government agencies, want better Internet security and easier network management. However, few see the next-generation Internet Protocol called IPv6 as helping them achieve their goals, according to a survey released Tuesday by Juniper Networks Inc."

  1. Give me an easy upgrade path by A+nonymous+Coward · · Score: 0, Troll

    It's not backwards compatible. I can't run old IPv4 on the same net, it's one or the other. Don't tell me to run multiple NICs, that's not practical.

    In short, there's no easy way to upgrade, to try it out, to upgrade slowly and practically.

  2. IPV6 and Firefox....the Truth by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Troll

    Hi, I'm Blake Ross. (that's me on the left). You might know me as gorgeous teen leader of world class browser Firefox. Hey my buddies on the team like Ben Goodger call me "El Spicko" cause I'm one greasy spick mother. I even got a pass to say 'nigger', sometimes I call my spick brothers and homies, I say "hey my nigger".

    When I drive around town with the hood down and the system cranking, I say to the ladies "how you doing girls?" and they say "Hey El Spicko we love you" and I just say "Hey". I used to work in kebab shop for my cousin but now I work on my browser Firefox which I invented.

    All you fags who keep saying Firefox is shit, you don't know shit. Kiss my spick nigger butt is what i say. Hey. We do what the fuck I want, it's my business I run. hey.

    Have you seen my photo on wired magazine ? Nice. My friend Ben, you see it's like this..he's a bit of a fat faggot and he likes all the geek stuff, me I'm more a ladies' man, i got plenty of pussy to choose from. hey.

    Listen I got to go, my cousin was busted for dealing crack, and mother was a whore but I tell you something truthfull, the way I did it, the way i became the boss of Firefox and changed the world, well you see it's a gift, not everyone has it like I do, but maybe you too can make something of your lives like me one day



    later, here is some more free photos for my fans...

    peace

  3. The numbers look ugly by tjstork · · Score: 0, Troll

    Instead of separating addresses with :, why not just use the good old .?

    IPV6 adressess just looks ugly.
