Reminds me of the late 70's when my parents thought that my being bored in school was a mental condition and actually had my brain scanned several times with multiple drugs given while scanning. Mind you, I was 5 to 6 years old. Yeah, I do remember that time pretty well, and that pre-school and kindergarten class felt like babysitting. (I have extensive memory of the early years, it's saved my ass in arguments with the folks about things that have happened in the past) I guess my point is that it seems like if you don't fit a certain criteria, then they find a way to try and twist you back into that criteria match. I was lucky my parents weren't well off and could not afford medications. I was diagnosed as needing drugs, and I've had many different "authorities" trying to shove it down my throat.
I did take an SSRI once out of force... it almost felt like a neutralizer. It knocks the will out of you, and your just "there". If I had to take it for the rest of my life, I might as well be dead.
Just to clarify, there's nothing wrong with me. Once I got out of the clutches of my parents/schools/"authorities", I was a normal person with high learning skills. It was just not "their" way, so it had to change in their view.
First of all, you are already using IPv6. Who is? The author only said he experienced it, he didn't say he migrated to it! He's using internal addressing, which by assumption IPv4 is meant. If you disable IPv6 on your system, you are not using IPv6. This goes for both Windows & Linux.
The whole meltdown thing and needing and IPv6 address is a little perplexing to me since you get your IP from your provider. If you receive an IPv6 address, I can almost guarantee you that there will be a layer of IPv4 tunneling because there isn't going to be some mass exodus where people just stop communicating with IPv4 addresses. (the ultimate utopia, we're free of those lowlife IPv4'ers! *rolls eyes*) The two will coexist, and there will be a migration period where providers have 6to4 routers to communicate with between address schema. Maybe not perfectly, but better than the concept of having two disparate schema that don't communicate.
In 2011, all v4 addresses will be assigned.
I'm sure the blocks assigned to the providers will continue to be used in the same way during the migration. There isn't some master DHCP server in Frankfurt, Germany that's providing addresses to everyone "logging onto the IntArweb". Address blocks were assigned years ago, and it's just a matter of them being assigned by the owning provider since they own the routing equipment with addresses that route that block. What will happen is once all IP addresses have been assigned to the last ISP/Megacorp, there will be no more to assign in that way. Then, the only place to get an IPv4 address will be from the megacorps or the ISPs that have the addresses because they've horded them. Basically a shift of power.
IPv6, or whatever pops up as something logical, will indeed be the next addressing used. However, a worldwide shift instantly is asinine. We have enough problems with culture & accepted practices of just about everything, let alone addressing.
We're still a young and struggling world, 500 years since the dark age. I think IPv6 is a minor problem in comparison.
You say that as if the net will be suddenly unusable unless we hurry and get an IPv6 address from future vendors who provide them. If it's not provided, it's hard to get. If you have to go outside of the box to get an address, it's a little unconventional and odd. If I pay my provider (cox, comcast, qwest, etc) for internet, they provide an IP address. If it's IPv6, I'm sure then it'll be used. If it's not, then we'll use it. There will be that time in the future that we'll have a "thunking layer" of IPv4 to IPv6 for those that are holding on tight to an IPv4 space for legacy reasons, either way. Call it good or bad, it's just how things work in this world when moving from one way to another.
The situations you noted have nothing to do with whether it's the standard or not, but whether the tool your making will actually work on IPv6. This articles mostly about consumer-based network use... i.e. non-developers.
I'll admit it's handy, but the most useful? I actually laughed out loud when I read that. It's just a website with people inserting data, and you get to search and read it. There are also "applications" that you can use, but they are basically wastes of time IMHO. In the end, it's a pretty version of MySpace.... only without the hiphop & latino gangsta bullshit.
There is no "most useful" application ever on the Internet. That term always is subjective, as I consider google mail to be the most useful, with rudder.com being the second most useful for my uses. (financial organization) You may not agree with my decisions, but it has as much credence as your stating that Facebook is one of th emost useful applications ever on the Internet.
I guess to sum it up, it's not the code that does it, it was simply that it was something people went to as an alternative. Before the mass migration, it was simply because "It's where adults go, it's hosted by a college". It ended up hitting critical mass, and then commercial entities acknowledged it in order to ply their wares.
it's great for coordinating IRL activities like parties, birthdays, the nicer kind of activism, etc...
So was MySpace, your point? Most of the hate about Facebook is that they are hypocritical and do not care about the values of humans. They will lie to you to get you to post private data up, make it appear as of your privatizing it, then make it so it's public. They'll also harvest (farm? data mine?) information and sell it. Other than that, they're great. Uh huh.
When referring to an "ultimate authority", you never think in the aspect of needing to PROVE they would do something. If they have any semblance of corruption, you neutralize and bypass. It's how the net works, and it's how authoritarian control works.
Why would you want this? You almost sound like one of those people that don't want to type their password in so they want something that will save their passwords for everything. The reason for the secure connection icon is to show you are in secure connection. It's not a nuisance, it's an indication. There's no problem here, move along.
You know what else is public domain? Most of your information. Should I collate that and post it in a facebook page? I mean, it's public domain so it's only right...
It's either that or too much CSI/Law & Order/etc. The shows always portray people valiantly putting every ounce of their life into bringing one person to justice, and in some cases (in Law & Order, at least) the ending showing the person dodging the legal proceedings even when the camera shows them doing the work. Most of the time in those situations, they trump it up with the offending individual mocking the officers in court, and walking out like some sort of mob gangster all smug. As much as I hate to say it, and it irks me, a large dose of people are influenced by television and believe it to reflect reality in most cases.
Interestingly, the location I'm at does not do this. Many police also have big hats and carry sticks as primary weaponry, does that mean that it's what needs to be done by everyone?
To recap common sense and the very REASON the article exists here, the reason it's bad: A) Pictures like that on Facebook are public flogging, and go above and beyond punishment fitting the crime. B) It's Facebook, who wants their picture on Facebook? (a joke, I keed I keed) C) It ostracizes people wrongly since it's basically remotely accessible whimsically by just about anyone with a computer, a 'net connection, and a little time to search Facebook. A newspaper actually takes more effort than most people have in this world, unless they are truly interested. (passive vs. active search)
Language wise, English equals British about as much as Spanish equals Spain.
In other words, lots of countries were subjugated many hundreds of years ago by the two empires. English is simply a footprint from that period of time, as is Spanish. Since most of the countries are now separate entities and disparate, logic would dictate that the ousted countries' activities would hold no bearing on said countries' activities.
There's a neat thing in logic... the knowledge to know the things you can change, accepting the things you cannot change, and the wisdom to know the difference.
I've actually had to verbally answer the question over the phone once, when I was doing something with a company. "Whats your favorite sport?" "uhh.. what??"
"I have to ask this to verify that you are the right person.. what's your favorite sport?" Now, I'm not entering that here, but I just laughed and told the person... but to use that as a way to verify I'm me? If I took your thought as a way to go, I'd being saying "I really love to play silligas.. it's spelled s i l l i g a s...":P
You made $80K and didn't buy clear title on a house. What did you buy? Be honest. Not with me, but with yourself. He MADE 80k... not right now. He also said he looked for a year, which sets him about 2009 losing his position. That wasn't that long into the recesssion since it was a year basically. This year has been the highpoint of foreclosure sales, in the United States of America. Also, 80k is not a million dollars, it's about $3,500/month, depending on your taxation. How the hell are you going to pull $75K+ out of your ass to buy a clear title on a house unless you've saved up for quite some time? If he had saved 2K a month, it woud take ~38 months to collect that. In this outlandish thought, that would leave about 1,500 for everyday survival, including housing/food/fuel/insurance. Not possible unless you're living in a sketchy neighborhood.
Also: You aren't thinking it through. Eventually, you can't even sell blood plasma to register the car, it ends up getting impounded, and then you're on foot.
Most people in this situation aren't exactly in a car with month-to-month payments. Most are only thinking about how to collect the money needed to keep it legally on the road.
You're also a horrific stereotyper. Most have a life, it's just that most here have the intelligence enough to not worry about it in a "boogieman" sense.

Better... Windows doesn't run Linux code right.
And I am not a KDE fan boy, not with my fond memories of RH 7.2
9 years does quite a bit to change things.
KDE and Gnome are neck and neck nowadays, in my eyes.
That being said, I always fall back to Window Maker.
Actually most base Ubuntu as "That one that's based on Debian". :)
I refer to it as Red Hat on training wheels
I'm thinking you're mistaking Facebook with Twitter.
Nothing's safer than 127.0.0.1 :)
