Yeah, the Universe keep making bigger fools (of us all). But, we should still use IPv6 instead of clawing the tattered remains of IPv4. I just wish my ISP agreed.

It's Alphabet not Google, yeah?
For every IPv4 address, IPv6 has 18 quintillion IPv4 Internets.
But, sure, it might be possible for us to fsck up allocations, again.
I use Paypal and they charge my Discover (Novus network, IIRC). No MC policy issue, let me buy what I want.
I'd never heard of this before. I hope Liberapay adds support for it. I don't think all itch.io developers would be interested. I'm not sure it quite solves all the problems that Steam has with getting payments to game publishers.
Quite interesting; thanks for the link!
Maybe not disturbing enough, but the short story that really stuck with me was: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lamb_to_the_Slaughter
If I described the texture, you'd never eat calimari again.
(or something like that)
Did you know there's an allowable amount of insect parts and rat feces that can be in your food without any particular labeling required?
There is no known process for removing bones from chicken that is perfect.
That said, something that is large enough to be described as a "long, thin bone" by a reasonable observer should NOT be allowed in something labeled "boneless", and the restaurant and any other entity involved in the deboning should have shared liability. If the process is accurate enough, the liability risk is low.
My biggest issue used to be that in the global industrial base collapses, we won't have surface coal/oil available to restart it. I've been informed that we might be able to restart just from turpentine. (Wind and solar both need advanced manufacturing techniques so can't be bootstrap electrical sources.)
That said, I don't think I'm very interested in hanging around after the global Internet collapses. My interests are too niche to be satisfied within a regional power grid.
I've not found them useful for that, even. I often just get "lied to" about any technical or tricky issues.
They are just text generators. Even the dumbest stack overflow answers show more coherence. (Tho, they are certainly wrong in other ways.)
Oskar Schindler: Stern, if this factory ever produces a shell that can actually be fired, I'll be very unhappy.

It is important that even if you stay on in order to sabotage, that you still do not commit any morally bad acts. NONE of your paperwork should ever pass muster.
I think that's a bad objection. It's idealistic in the worst way, it's making "Perfect [...] the enemy of the good". Plus, there are significant practical advantages to a fixed-length addressing scheme, and any fixed-length going to have a maximum. So, under the constraint of fixed-length addressing "big enough" is all we have.
128 bits really is quite hard to fill up, we'll have to worry about a lot of very different things before the run out of addresses. Like speed-of-light latency vs. TCP (and possibly TLS session) timers for interplanetary connections.
