Well, the problem is, Apple does build real walls around its gardens, these are no accident. You are only quibbling over which of Apple's walls are real.
The initial conditions for the Universe were set at the Big Bang, and everything that follows is deterministic.
This demonstrates a rather painful lack of understanding of quantum mechanics, which generally accepts that God does play dice (or as Niels Bohr put it, stop telling God what to do.)
The story is about an issue that is completely irrelevant.
Not completely irrelevant. It indicates that some government cogs are using Windows, machines that will soon be owned by Chinese and/or Russian government cybercrooks, if not already.
Who is the "they" you speak of? I can think offhand of anybody who says "accept all the immigrants who show up."
We know who "he" is (op). A trumpist, most likely a foreigner, possibly Russian. Hanging out on social media to seed discord by being an idiot. Typical trumpist. No real person would do it for free.
By claiming that IPv4 can't be extended you are the flat earther. IPv6 is already an example of such an extension, it's just a crappy one that alienates millions of users with its stupidly long addresses, NIH way of doing everything needless incompatibility with IPv4 address space and many other bizarre details. If you don't know how those issues could have been ameliorated, then you should fucking get down off your high horse because you are incompetent. Sheesh, you sound like a Vint Cerf clone, and that is how we got into this big sticky expensive mess. You are the problem, you are the flat earther. And yes, I feel more stupid after discussing this with the likes of you.
Your reading comprehension is questionable. Did I not tell you that Intel employs Linux kernel devs, some of whom specifically work on power management? This means that Linux actually has more advanced power management than Windoze, which is worked on only by Microsoft devs and you know how good they are, or not. Same goes for Apple.
Show numbers yourself. So far you have only showed clueless blathering.
That RFC was the first draft of IPv6, before a lot of the really stupid stuff got put in. Feel dumb? You should.
Beyond brainstorming, anyone who takes extending IPv4 seriously should not be in change of anything related to networking.
Nobody who has anything to do with technology should listen to anything you say, you have adequately destroyed your credibility. Typical IPv6 fanboi... thinks it's great and everybody should do it, but isn't sure why. Is sure that nothing else could possibly be better. Likes to trot out talking points spammed by the IPv6 mafia. Doesn't know how do to anything else.
My laptop and desktop are not ARM. One is Intel and the other is AMD. They both excel at power management as measured by battery life in the first case and measured power consumption in the second. Linux does just fine with Intel power management, thanks. Not in the least because they have a team of Linux developers working on it.
True fact about car analogies: save the typing, you prove nothing.
And Dota2, the biggest money game of all time with millions of players, works great on Linux, including with Vulkan. Linux desktop gaming only gets better every month, I have more AAA titles than I have time to play.
Games will be the last niche that Windows clings to. I haven't played a game on window in, um, over ten years. Ps3/4 before slumming in Windows, thanks.
You just go ahead and cling to your precious Windows machine if that's what floats your boat, as it fade, fade, fades away. Linux is already the majority of the market, and for your information, most games are Android games these days, that is, Linux. Don't mean to brag, but hey, Windows is the evil spawn of evil Microsoft, and you carry water for that. BTW, Linux guys get paid a heap more than Windoze hangers on these days.
How many wake/sleep cycles before the computer freezes/crashes?

Seems to be pretty much infinite with most modern Linux installs these days. How's that working for your Windows box?
My Macbook grew white spots all over the screen, good thing I got it for free. I will continue to steer clear of Apple crap hardware, with that as a clear warning.
Your experience differs from mine. I am getting great Linux performance right out of the box on modern hardware these days. Sure, every now and then some idiot will throw in a curve ball with some funky nonstandard hardware that takes a while to sort out, but those are the exceptions.
I'm personally sick and tired of constant performance benchmarks.
Speak for yourself. For me, there is no such thing as too much performance, especially for free. And your Windows 10 machine sucks for usability, compared to recent Plasma.
Usability is number one with a bullet for 98% of us.
So therefore you want to be using KDE Plasma. I have a Macbook here and a Windows 10 machine. They both suck for fit and finish, configurability, features, flexibility, performance, you name it, compared to Plasma.
As i understand it, clear linux is a distribution optimized for modern hardware...
That is not hard. For example, the kernel is compiled with O2, which makes zero sense for 99% of it, when O3 gives faster, more power efficient code. Just Linus being get off my grass you kids about that. Easy enough to fix - lightweight makefile patching does the trick.
I have a Linux ultrabook, a high end Linux notebook, and a monster i7 Linux desktop replacement laptop. They all work perfectly and when people see my Plasma desktop they ask me, what is it? I say Linux, they say really?? Yes it is, kids. Several instant converts that way, I just point them at a usb-keyable net install.
Came to post this very comment. Battery life is one of Linux's achilles heels.
Apple cultists would like it to be. But the fact is, Linux is good at power management, now leading the pack. Chromebooks prove it. Androids prove it. My laptop proves it. My kill-o-watt meter on my Debian workstation proves it.
Alright, let's go with that for now. The next question is: what could they possibly have done about it?
They could have banned Vint Cerf from the steering committee, great start. Then get down and seriously figure out the least painful way to extend the IPv4 address space. Too hard for Vint Cerf to comprehend, apparently. Maybe you also unless you are just being disingenuous, which is a distinct possibility.
Nobody said anything about forward compatible, do you know the difference? (I doubt it.)
there's nothing that v6 could have done to avoid i
Intellectually embarrassing claim for you to make.
Managers obviously have more time on their hands than engineers for lurking and reading Slashdot, just building up mod point probability and waiting to pounce on agile articles, or anything that might expose them.
Slashdot Mirror
The turnaround times are very short since the developer in question already knew all the Swift-quirks.
What if that developer gets hit by a bus or gets a higher offer elsewhere?
Well, the problem is, Apple does build real walls around its gardens, these are no accident. You are only quibbling over which of Apple's walls are real.
Be Evil. Why not? Don't be evil is not in the code of ethics any more! (Was it ever?) Now Google is just dropping all pretense.
I don't care much at all about this
Nice one.
Perhaps the ugliest plug in creation, but impressive how it finesses USB 1/2 compatibility. Impressive in a horrific kind of way.

I don't need support, it's a logic problem
But your logic is lacking, so you need support.

IPv4 is non-extendable in any useful way.
Says who, you? A bald assertion without support.
That RFC is about as much of a joke as...

macOS has much more stuff going than any Linux OS every will.
Haha, that only makes sense to a single-button brain.

Right, you got it. The same argument applies to data centers and nearly everywhere else that tech investment is really concentrated.
