If the SD865 is the undisputed champ does that mean that the Lite version is actually the best for Switch Emulation since that’s the one that ships with SD865?

Damn it can play Mario Odyssey?? I am a little surprised it can emulate Switch games, but damn that’s cool.

I understand why it’s Android but that also feels so limiting in a way…

IPv4 has DHCP. Is there something in the way of applying a similar solution to IPv6?

That in itself is implemented a few different ways, and each one is more useful dependent on your use-case, but these also have very little to do with how your ISP hands out the IP to your modem. When you get an IP handed out to your modem by your ISP, it’s often not being handed out by DHCP but an entirely different technology purpose built for whatever medium (cable/DSL/fiber) is actually going into your modem, so knowing their implementation is still important. Things work a little differently at enterprise-level. Although you’re not wrong that eventually there could be routers with auto-configuration based on which type of IPv6 network the router detects, there just currently aren’t any that I know of.

But if you’re interested in the modern equivalents of DHCP you should look into SLAAC vs. DHCPv6 which are similar but oh so very different.

Thanks for holding us back, champ.

I guess fuck stateful packet inspection as a tool or anything.

NAT isn’t a security measure you know that right?

Further, there’s often not clear documentation from your ISP which of the ways they have it set up!

It’s like the opposite of Dr. House’s “It’s never Lupus.”

“It’s always DNS.”

I feel like we really need to speed up the embrace of IPv6 to solve this kind of issue. DNS is helpful to humans sure but a lot of these outages are triggered by services not being able to reach one another because they’re hard-coded to a DNS to avoid shifting IPs due to things like NAT.

It feels like we could do an end-run around a lot of this by having a failover to an IPv6 address that is associated with the DNS entry if the DNS fails. Kind of like you generally have multiple DNS servers in sequence in case one of not-responsive, what if, at the service-level we stopped relying on DNS so much and instead used the benefits of IPv6 to not have services fail with DNS does? DNS should be for humans not for computers especially not in a world where IPv6 exists.

(someone who is more familiar with the ins-and-outs of IPv6 is welcome to tell me if and why I am wrong in thinking this)

I wish they would just raise prices rather than making everything shittier.

The companies, in response to you:

Yeah my point was less about the copyright aspect and more about the free distribution aspect. It’s definitely sad that they don’t have their own free-and-open-for-all version but oh well.

Lenox.

I’m fucking dead lmao

Look into the Gideons. I don’t agree with all their philosophy obviously, but they’re like the Open Source/Open Knowledge group of the Christian faith.

One of their main things is that they think since the Bible is the word of God, and people deserve to be saved, that it’s their job to ensure everyone gets a fair shake at access to a Bible without having to pay for it. You used to always be able to find a Bible in a hotel thanks to them, and they’re often at public gatherings handing out copies as well.

I’m not religious, and I don’t agree with much of what they believe, but I do think that is an appropriate way to view the situation, that it should be freely available to all instead of essentially locked behind a paywall.

Same story as ever: Republicans refuse to negotiate in good faith and then blame it on the people not bending over to be raped by them.

The entire Republican apparatus is basically a DARVO abuser in the form of a political party.

I have all three seasons soundtracks, because they’re all so good.

Joe Pera is my favorite out of all of them, honestly. I wanted to get him to sign my copy of his bathroom book “A Bathroom Book Not For People Pooping pr Peeing But Using the Bathroom as an Escape” when I saw his standup show but the crowd was too big and I gave up.

Joe Bennett, the creator of Scavenger’s Reign on HBO and Common Side Effects on Adult Swim did the art for Joe Pera’s bathroom book, which is how I first found his art.

C. Martin Croker, voice of Zorak, died too young. Losing him was a big punch in the guy to early Adult Swim lovers of Space Ghost Coast to Coast and the Brak Show.

He’s been telegraphing it since 2016. In 2020 he literally tried to stop the peaceful passing of power between Presidencies and made it a very not peaceful passage for the first time in US history.

Like, if you haven’t noticed, you haven’t been paying the fuck attention (not you OP, you’re obviously paying attention). I’m so sick of our media downplaying it like they’re just figuring this the fuck out, like he isn’t the most transparently bad liar in fucking history.

Well for one Ugly Americans was never on Adult Swim. It was a Comedy Central show.

Mike Tyson Mysteries is definitely a forgotten gem though.

Tragic that it never got a full season. One of the best.

It wasn’t helped by the voice of Captain Murphy dying so soon into it’s run. His son taking over just didn’t have the same chutzpah as the OG.

I’d like to see what Sterling Archer thinks about all this.

Rufus Pollock’s math agrees. I am so bummed he recently took this down from his personal website where it had been available for 15 years

Now it just resolves as a 404 not found:
