Or we should start a wall of shame of services not available on IPv6.


What holds them back though? Even my shitty self-hosted website on a not-so-known VPS supports IPv6.

I'm assuming priorities and convincing the old guard it's something to do

It provides no benefit, so even the smallest amount of added complexity or additional engineering effort required isn't worthwhile.

I did not have to put any additional engineering effort into it though.

Because in your own words what you built is "a shitty self-hosted website", not a complex web of distributed services that need to talk to each-other.

For now. A year ago they weren't even Gen AI videos. Give it a few months...

The Web APIs is the most ubiquitous "computer" that doesn't really exist!

mDNS

In the past few weeks I have been exploring mDNS and IPv6. Your router doesn't provide local DNS? Not an issue, add .local to the hostnames and boom, everything works.

For example, run `python3 -m http.server` on your laptop, then open the browser on your phone and browse yourlaptopname.local:8000 ! There's more, services are advertised on mDNS, that's how your printer magically appears on your computers and phones.



Perfect timing for me, I've just been spending my side-project time in the last few weeks on building the smallest possible VMs with different glibc distros exactly for this, running podman containers, and comparing results.

What's the "Sign in to study" button? Nothing happens when I click on it. If I click above it takes me to am explanation of the subject.

It should in theory allow you to answer the questions associated with the section. Let me cross check.

Yep it is broken, will be fixing 5 min.

Fixed. please retry. Thanks for reporting.

Yet you're paying to get a passport etc...

Agreed but we do have to interact with them. I once tried to sell a car with 140 Mm and got nowhere. I then changed the add to 140_000 km and got a lot more interest.

My interdental brushes claim that the wire is 0.8 megamolar wide, which is not a normal measure of width.

I wonder if the international society of dentists keeps a standard molar in a safe somewhere

It is probably an indication that they should fix their caps lock keys, however. Like the guys who sells bottles with volumes in ML.

That would be 4.82x10²⁹ somethings wide.

> My interdental brushes claim that the wire is 0.8 megamolar wide, which is not a normal measure of width.

0.8 megamolar = 800,000 teeth? That, uh, seems pretty wide for an interdental brush.


0.8 Mmol?

0.8 MM

The symbol for molar is just the "M". "mol" denotes the Avogadro constant.


Did you measure them?

Did you return the one you bought locally?
