Greetings, /g/entoomen. How does it feel desperately struggling over the last remaining scraps of IPv4 addresses while I, sitting here at MIT like a king, get as many public addresses as I please? What is it like making do with a single address for your entire network, while each one of my devices, from the lowliest of Raspberry Pis, gets its own? Tell me about "port forwarding"; I love hearing about the struggles of peasants such as yourselves.
my school doesnt nat their network either, so anything on it gets a public ip.
its not like this is anything to brag about, since you do not control the firewall

I can change my IP any time I want with my isp, how tech illiterate are you

>thinking this is equivalent to the glory of a full /8 block

Are you Stallman?

whats the difference? a public ip is a public ip, and since you do not control the firewall there is literally nothing to brag about

Atleast you give a negative fuck instead of no fucks.
Why was IPv6 such a flop?

setting it up was/is more of a pain than dealing with NAT
>>51707453
So, what is the purpose of having 16 different IPs for devices on a LAN?
I'm currently working with a research group here in harvard creating the true successor to IPv4 while you idiot MIT monkeys are throwing shit on the walls.
feelsgoodmang.

Long as fuck, a total pain.

the butthurt MIT monkey tries to cope with the fact that harvard is superior to that shit school.

ISPs have dragged their feet for a decade. We need to force them to implement it somehow.

Technically v6 has some very nice features like SLAAC and PD

MIT is falling behind and Harvard survives only on its name nowadays.
