@Charlotte158918 How the hell do they not know about drill stops? This has been a thing in construction for a long time. You set the depth and drill. Like wtf?

@BrianRoemmele How will this data be made accessible once you're done? I assume your working on that part. I'd love to see what's in it.

@ChShersh So is orbital insertion physics. We still get it wrong from time to time.

@BloatMcQueen Would they agree to cover 5% of loss too?

@X, I'm always getting the login overlay with poor UI position popping over my feed. I'm already logged in. I can close it and stay logged in. Some rogue trigger is happening when X is the last active app, my screen locks for 3+ minutes, then I unlock it and X is still active. That usually causes it. Quite annoying. Been happening for about 3 weeks.

@OC_Scanner @Elex_Michaelson I'd needs to get required to request too

@DataMeister1 @SpeedyX04005298 @geerlingguy For all its strengths, that's exactly why ipv6 has such heavy resistance.

@BadAstart Also don't breath. You could exhale too much C02 and harm. Someone next to you.

[DIWhyCoder - ⌨️ 🇺🇸 @diwhycoder]

All great points you have. I do need to do some more research. However, I do think there was some intent on human readability. There are other forms of recording address data that are more system native, even at the time of its creation.

To this day a very common and useful question in IT is "which network?" "10.30". Is much easier than "2001:0db8:85a3". Just giving it a human liable still doesn't help in many cases.

This is why I still see Ipv6 as a forces solution, but very difficult to adopt by its intended users.

[DIWhyCoder - ⌨️ 🇺🇸 @diwhycoder]

@lisp4fun @geerlingguy Ah I see. Personally, naively, I thought it was just address exhaustion - it's what I often hear about. I'll look into it more.

[DIWhyCoder - ⌨️ 🇺🇸 @diwhycoder]

So @geerlingguy caused a stir with his IPV6 post, and my post brought on very polar reactions.

I'm realizing that I think network guys, like IPV6 from a technical perspective but the average user of it hates using and are forced to.

The solution(s) being offered is not the ones desired by the users/implementers of it.

[DIWhyCoder - ⌨️ 🇺🇸 @diwhycoder]

@geerlingguy I still don't understand why we can't just take IPV4 and create IPV4.1. Literally just add another dot to the address and the masks.

@edgarpavlovsky This just sounds like your asking for compounding problems. While also having 0 idea what your architecture is.

[DIWhyCoder - ⌨️ 🇺🇸 @diwhycoder]

@solisvogel @geerlingguy Do you know your own lan ipv6 address by heart?

The number of times that has been helpful is massive. That's my main argument. It's a solid argument if you've ever had to set up a network without a whole team and with the thousands of dollars of equipment that abstracts it away.

[DIWhyCoder - ⌨️ 🇺🇸 @diwhycoder]

@BrianG61UK @PipingJam @geerlingguy I probably don't. It naively looks as such. I'm not a firmware engineer. I work much farther up the stack.

[DIWhyCoder - ⌨️ 🇺🇸 @diwhycoder]

@balticbeast45 @SpeedyX04005298 @geerlingguy 😂 That's a new one.

[DIWhyCoder - ⌨️ 🇺🇸 @diwhycoder]

@PipingJam @geerlingguy Maybe it's not and just feels that way..... Ha.

From the parsing standpoint and mask application it appears trivial to do one or the other.

[DIWhyCoder - ⌨️ 🇺🇸 @diwhycoder]

@SpeedyX04005298 @geerlingguy Fails the readability test. I can see it being useful for some networks out of necessity, but it's just so impractical.

[DIWhyCoder - ⌨️ 🇺🇸 @diwhycoder]

@PipingJam @geerlingguy Yeah, it's not good. That's why we only need a 4.1. It would then be backwards compatible.
