I'm not sure this is any more useful to your post, but I very clearly remember going through this when I was contracted to make a machine imaging setup for a computer lab back in the NT 4.0 (possibly even 3.51) days. NT4 Server/DC, and NT4 Workstation machines. Once you joined the domain with one machine, any cloned one refused to join the domain. I ended up with sysprep scripts and all kinds of other junk and cloned them at the point of the first (or maybe second....I don't recall) reboot during a fully scripted setup to solve the issue. This was before tools were available to deal with this.
In order for vaccination to "work" - from a public health standpoint - a majority of the population needs to be vaccinated. (I think the number's 75%.)
I understand how that is confusing....I was talking about two different things and didn't really differentiate.
As you said, the routers will come down in price. They are the bits and pieces that need hardware differences (ASICs, RAM, etc) to be IPv6 ready with handling ACLs outside of the base chassis CPU. I use mostly Cisco gear. IOS has handled IPv6 just fine for some time. Try to toss too many IPv6 ACLs at it and run lots of IPv6 traffic, and your CPU will melt down unless the hardware directly supports it.
The SIP gear is typically sold as a "Box". Most of these boxes are not specialazed (they are rackmount PCs running Linux or very dumb boxes full of transcoder chips that netboot some minimal OS to bring up a SIP stack and shove RTP through their specialized hardware). They do not need any hardware changes, but they do need software that will handle IPv6. That is the software that is lacking in mature form, and in many cases, in many cases at all. Example: Dialogic (formerly Cantatta) IMG 1010 transcoder.
No one is arguing that the cost of gear that has already been produced that is IPv6 capable will go down when/if there is more demand.
Mature only refers to stuff like stability and our ability to produce, not the end user costs. Blue-ray is mature, but it is still hidiously expensive.
Exactly my point. Maybe you aren't familiar with the technology I mentioned, but most of it is a software issue, not hardware. Since the software doesn't exist in production with any major carrier, or even out of beta for any major commercial product I'm aware of, I don't think it can be said that it meets your definition of "mature." Right now, it's vaporware, at best.
No. No it is not. Speaking of only things off the top of my head that affect my business: IPv6 at an aggregation router level that can handle complex ACLs only exists in the highest end hardware (meaning MUCH more expensive gear than what I need for IPv4 - as in 3x the cost or more). Most SIP hardware vendors simply don't support IPv6 (think session border controllers and RTP proxies), client side software is no better, and I'm not away of a single major termination carrier that supports it, nor any origination.
So, if it doesn't even work for one narrow case (VoIP wholesale/retail blend), just how many others do you think are out there where it's simply not ready? I'm going to guess A LOT, because my business is just not all that out of the ordinary.
It seems to me (though my perspective is limited) that the telephone network is pretty well internationally compatible..
Says the guy who doesn't work in telecom:)
Really, its amazing that it works as as well as it does, but it's by no means standard or compatible. It works because of the sheer market forces that make dealing with the incompatibilities profitable.
Not to mention the fact that the other parties interested in doing this can set up their own NS roots and instruct the ISPs in their country to use them. As far as I'm concerned, everyone else is using OUR DNS infrastructure, and is free to stop participating whenever they choose. It requires no action whatsoever by the US for someone to make that choice for their own country/state/city/business/home/individual PC.
This is one of those things that sounds like a lot bigger deal than it is until you know how it all works (in technial reality). The whining (from those who want this) is that the system works well because it has critical mass. People start fragmenting off, and the individual DNS "islands" have little to no value, and would be used only when people were forced to use them.
Besides, this is nothing. It's just DNS. Want real chaos? Start arguing over ASN coordination and IP address allocation. That won't happen mostly because its too obscure for most people to understand.
How about oldest piece of equipment in regular use?
I posted this earlier, but I have top jump in on this because I think I win. Mid 1930's Western Electric butt set hooked up to an ATA to connect to out VoIP PBX at work. It's my normal desk phone.
I've got a mid 1930's Western Electric butt set (lineman's hand set) that I have hooked up to a ATA. I use it as my desk phone at work on our voip PBX. All I really need to do (eventually) is put a caller ID box and a DTMF keypad inline .
In the mean time, I just have my new(ish) modern butt set clamped on as well. That's my dialpad, speakerphone, and ringer.
I really want an old phone booth with a phone. And yes, it will go voip too.

Obviously I overquoted....was only replying to the NASCAR part. BMW top speed limiters are trivially removed, as you know. You can even increase the redline cutoff of you want to push your luck.
Btw, NASCAR does this already on some tracks for safety reasons. You don't see any of those cars going 200+ mph. Even though they are completely capable of it.
Most cars already have a limiter, my BMW is computer limited at 135mph. Though, I could spend $50 and get that part of the computer reprogrammed.
Your point is well taken, but this part is just wrong.
On longer tracks, the cars must install a restrictor plate between the carburetor and intake, physically limiting the amount of air thereby nerfing a 700+ HP motor to under 500 HP. This obviously affects both top speed and acceleration.
Depends on the GPS.
This works just fine in my track car, confirmed by other speed devices. Its all about how much you're willing to spend (or to make others spend).
Exactly what I came here to say.
Your VPN config is broken. Your IT department is doing it wrong. Even without the NXDomain, you wouldn't get there. I'm not sure how you think this has anything to do with your problem.
The only way it would work without NXDomain crap would be if you someone has your corp DNS servers inserted AFTER whatever DNS server you got in DHCP from the ISP and waited around for 2 or 3 timeouts before it got to yours. And even then its not going to be 100% consistent behavior depending on the OS and the first DNS servers it hits.
Messed up security? Meaning that they didn't spend money with a company that the browser developers decided (and/or were paid to) put in a list of "accepted" certificate providers?
Probably because most people do not use voice dialing.
I only use it in my car, and it's built into my bluetooth hands free kit. And even at that, I usually don't use it as I have a jog/shuttle button and a screen on the kit that's just as easy to find numbers with.
What part of "mom feeds before going to work, after coming home" did you not understand?
The part where I have two children and know that you're missing like half a day worth of feedings.
I'm a man and I happen to be very good with babies and young children. I'm growing sick of this "dads suck at caring for babies" attitude. It belongs in the 1800s, not the modern world.
I never made that argument. I could care for my children, after they are off of breast milk, just as well as my wife can. Its a matter of practicality - one phase of the child's life is much more practically and efficiently served by the mother. This is normally mutually exclusive with carrying on a decent career (the maternity leave part), and only worsens with more children. I am RELATED to people who have done it this way, and regretted it.
