    Do you work at an ISP or something? You're IT team should have really started implementing steps to be IPv6 compliant months ago.

    Something.

    We're a web design and application development company. I'm our lead graphic artist.

    We contract hosting out to a company that I'm pretty sure is in Russia

    Team Bondi are now bankrupt and the remaining staff are going to be bought by KMM, including Brendan McNamara who was instrumental in sealing the deal. Apparently Depth Analysis (the sister company who own the face tech) are also in some trouble after making little to no money off of LA Noire (like TB themselves).

    Rockstar own the LA Noire ip, so it will be interesting to see what happens next.

    Couldn't have happened to a more deserving asshole.

    Too bad the folks that actually developed the one saving grace in the game are also in trouble.

    Really? I've always respected bearded politicians or leaders more. I need to move back to the 19th century

    He was obsessed with his beard. Dude wrote an entire book (a satire IIRC) against people who dissed beards.

    Damm, I need to read this. Do you have a link to a translation? I clearly need to address the gaps in my education relating to the later Emperors!

    Do you guys hand out IPs as well? You said they "reported" it so that's why I assumed you worked for an ISP.

    I ummm have no clue. They sent us an email saying they were running out of IPs so they were cutting back on the number of throw away domains they had live.

    Really I have no clue how these things work. The most I ever do with the server is FTP access.

    There's 2^32 IPv4 addresses. They've all been allocated. They're not all used, but they're allocated.

    2^32 = 4,294,967,296, which isn't that much, really - 4.29 billion addresses.

    IPv6 is the replacement protocol. It has 2^128 addresses.

    I think that's a number with about 38 zeroes in it.

    Its roughly the number of stars in the universe

    What's funny is that, right now, we're all "Yeah, this oughta be enough" just like the guys back in 1980 were when they setup IPv4. We're already handing IPv6 addresses out in the millions to anyone who wants them.

    So another thirty years from now our children will be like, "Christ couldn't these assholes have expected this shit to dry up? When's IPv10 gonna be implemented? That oughta fix the problem permanently".

    This is, surprisingly, sort of accurate.

    The reason IPs are gonna be so important is because all of these companies expect a single person to have at least 150 IPs unique to just them.

    If I'm thinking of the same situation, you're entirely wrong.

    It's called r/favors. A guy asks for some promotional materials for some kind of drive for Africa (AIDS or some such). The moderator derides him, using strong language, and tells him that if he so much as posts in that thread again he will be banned.

    Thanks. So far, so good:

    But as though the mere length of my beard were not enough, my head is dishevelled besides, and I seldom have my hair cut or my nails, while my fingers are nearly always black from using a pen. And if you would like to learn something that is usually a secret, my breast is shaggy, and covered with hair, like the breasts of lions who among wild beasts are monarchs like me, and I have never in my life made it smooth, so ill-conditioned and shabby am I, nor have I made any other part of my body smooth or so...

    When I was new to Reddit, not very long ago, a woman submitted a post about how she was going to cut her hair off, and was receiving donations for cancer charity. I don't remember if the hair cutting had to be preceded by a certain donation amount or if it was just an attention-getting maneuver.

    Anyway, it reaches the front page, so lots of people see it. But one Redditor isn't totally convinced that she's on the level. He suspects it's a scam, so he starts up this big campaign to convince people she's a liar and don't donate money.

    Of course I wouldn't write this post if it didn't turn out that she was on the level and this guy's moronic sense of internet justice cost a charity event tons tons of money.

    *snip - this is about IPV6*

    Somehow I doubt we're going to run out in 30 years.

    It really would not suprise me if we did. Hell, even in 10-20 years.

    Now with the current range of devices and internet infrastructure it would take a hell of a long time of growth to run out of IPV6 address space that's true. But what I expect is that the sudden massive availability of a previously scarce resource (address space) will lead to the development of new technologies (and I have no idea what these might be) that take advantage of this adundance and that this will radicially change the rate of growth of addresses to the point that they will get scarce again before we expect.

    About 15 actually, as I've been coding since roughly 1995. Whereas the Carmack started in the early 1980's.
