Thanks! It was really bugging me that I couldn’t place it from that photo, it looks like a dozen different places around d.c./nova from that angle. The only thing that didn’t seem right to me was the roof.

Not a nit pick, I just lived in the area for a while and it looked familiar is all.

Are we sure that’s D.C.? Looks like the Pentagon (which is across the river in Virginia).

The microcomputers (raspberry pi, arduino, whatever) could have a modern network interface and relay the communication to the embedded devices over oldschool serial. But yeah, straight DNS wouldn’t work. I like the idea though, gonna start posting my 10 favorite IP addresses on a piece of paper on the fridge. Who needs excel!

Oh, now that you mention it I’ve never tried to map a static DNS entry to a device without DNS. Welp, time to get thousands of raspberry pi’s to act as IP KVMs!

On my home network I make sure that my PDs are the same as my VLAN IDs so that I can at least know where a device is based on its IP. If I was smart I would also line them up with the IPv4 subnets as well.

I was going to say, my friend has to maintain some fucking DOS systems because their ancient embroidery machines only want to talk to software as old as they are, over connections as old as they are.

If you set up your DNS correctly then you don’t even need the IPs. Just give devices unique, human-readable names and maybe do separate sub-domains for each site or something.

it’s not a browser extension, its a SLAAC thing https://www.internetsociety.org/resources/deploy360/2014/privacy-extensions-for-ipv6-slaac.

TL;DR is that SLAAC used to use part of your device MAC to form it’s IP, which would be trackable/fingerprintable. Now devices just pick the last 48-bits at complete random on the assumption that no other device is going to have that specific address out of the 4 quintilion available addresses.

Oh lol haha my bad.

They were talking about anime (most likely). It was a joke.

Or even if they would just let us bond the TV speakers together to use as a center channel and augment that with a cheap 2.0/2.1 soundbar I bet it would be an improvement in dialogue clarity, even if the imaging would be a bit of a disaster.

Sounds like a rough spot, I’m glad things worked out for you.

Oh I see, I was panicking a bit because I thought you were stating that it was a part of the EO and I couldn’t find any references to support it. I don’t really have a backup address since I live with my parents at the moment (dealing with said MH diagnosis). Thank you for taking the time to respond OP.

I’m in the United States so I read the sections relevant to the United States. I’m just trying to find where this claim of people with a mental health diagnosis needing multiple addresses due to the new EO comes in. That would impact me personally.

According to the sources in the Wikipedia article, in the US at least, the term de-banking wasn’t even in popular use until some right-wing nutjobs started claiming that the government was using it to shut down conservative “tech” companies, and then latched onto by people like Joe Rogan and Elon Musk to scam people into replacing their bank accounts with crypto currency.

I don’t know what that saying means, but I hate the Trump administration I promise. I hate FUD too though. More FUD = less energy to spend on the actual battles that need to be fought. I have my own mental health diagnosis and currently live in my parent’s spare property so what OP said would personally impact me if true. I can’t find where it’s stated though.

Sorry, /s means sarcastic. If anything I would absolutely expect them to pay for multiple mixes/masters given what’s been said about how people consume it.

ah yes, the forbidden curl hack

What would be the alternative? You don’t really expect the streaming companies to pay for TWO masters do you!? (/s if it wasn’t obvious)
