There is a screenshot in the thread that makes all make sense.

similar to patent trolls, there is now a DMCA trolls for hire.


Commit maker is here and have only posts slop here as well.

wonder when will he submit them here.


I think that account should be banned. Going further, the whole oneuptime.com domain should probably be blacklisted.

only-eu.eu registered on Porkbun LLC and hosted on Cloudflare, Inc

MX points to route1.mx.cloudflare.net as well.

they should use their own product before giving others advice.

And is built with Astro, which was created by an American, existed as an American company, and then was absorbed by Cloudflare.


Using Astro and giving your data to American companies are two entirely different things

The site isn't limited to just cloud service providers; it includes Mattel and suggests replacing it with Lego. Are people giving their data to American companies by buying Barbies?

It's all performative anyway.

Unfortunately I think it's mostly just a meme at this point.


I don't need any of these statements to be true to want to divest from a US monopoly on essential software.

It's about decentralization, always has been.


> Europe doesn't trust the USA.

most the upper management of companies who use them have dont have the technical competence to see it. (eg: banks, supermarket chains, manufacturing companies)

once they are in, no one likes to admit they made a mistake.


DNS should be auto configured and work with multiple redundancy these days.

If it breaks, so much that you cannot do a dig, you need to re think your network.


Oh yes, that's really convenient for home users. "Install this thing on several computers and keep it in sync or you're not qualified to have a network"

Home users would ideally be served by things like mDNS and LLMNR, which should just work in the background. If I want to connect to the thermostat I should be able to just go to http://honeywell-thermostat and have it work. If I want to connect to the printer it should just be ipp://brother and I shouldn't even need to have a DNS server.

And if DNS fails, I have to use a serial console to get into my router and fix it, because I can't remember what address to type in ssh?

Your interface has a default gateway configured for it, doesn't it? Isn't that default gateway the router? NDP should show the local routers through router advertisements. There is also LLDP to help find such devices. LLMNR/mDNS provides DNS services even without a centralized nameserver (hence the whole "I shouldn't even need to have a DNS server"). So much out there other than just memorizing numbers. I've been working with IPv6 for nearly 20 years and I've never had an issue of "what was the IP address of the local router", because there's so many ways to find devices.

Even then nobody is stopping you from giving them memorable IP addresses. Giving your local router a link-local address of fe80::1 is perfectly valid. Or if you're needing larger networking than just link-local and have memorable addresses use ULAs and have the router on network one be fd00:1::1, the router on network two be fd00:2::1, the router on network three be fd00:3::1, etc. Is fe80::1 or fd00:1::1 really that much harder to memorize than 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.1.1 or 10.0.0.1, if you're really super gung-ho about memorizing numbers?


> Giving your local router a link-local address of fe80::1 is perfectly valid.

You're right. That would work.


really home users who mess with DNS settings? Lot of people here are living in a bubble.

My DNS "server" is a router which can "add" static entries. Easy with static addresses, won't work with dynamic addresses.

What redundancy, multiple servers? Do you think everybody runs dedicated homelabs to access a raspberry pi.


> My DNS "server" is a router which can "add" static entries...won't work with dynamic addresses.

Sounds like a pretty poor setup, systems which could auto-add DHCP'd or discovered entries have been around for literally decades. You're choosing to live in that limitation.

> What redundancy, multiple servers?

Multicast name resolution is a thing. Hosts can send out queries and other devices can respond back. You don't need a centralized DNS server to have functional DNS.


it will naturally happen when you work with it long term, similar to how it was with v4.

they do use it in their speedtest server.

  curl -v https://speedtest.ams.t-mobile.nl.prod.hosts.ooklaserver.net:8080
  ...
  * Connected to speedtest.ams.t-mobile.nl.prod.hosts.ooklaserver.net (2a02:4240::e) port 8080

Probably a requirement from Ookla, so again "They refuse to implement anything that isn't strictly required".

I am running IPv6 only servers, and I think it's fair that v4 only people feel the same pain some time in the future.

IPv6: only better than v4 if you kneecap v4, even then maybe not

I noticed the same, I had nodes on 2 different ISPs.

On one ISP inbound IPv6 was blocked at router, while on other IPv6 was fully allowed.

Tailscale detected this is automatically created the tunnel from the blocked one to the other.

I was super impressed, as this was handled automatically.


Instagram was uploading the images while the user were adding post details, back in 2012!

No one seem to use or care about their own product anymore. Only uses dashboard and metrics, which does not explain the full situation.


That makes total sense from a UX perspective though, the ChatGPT thing does not.

there were a lot of helpdesk chats doing the same, so you could see users typing messages, then deleting words, etc before hitting send.

This was actually one of the reasons why Instagram felt smooth.

Another thing but Facebook/Instagram have also detected if a person uploads an image and then deletes it and recognizes that they are insecure, and in case of TEENAGE girls, actually then have it as their profile (that they are insecure) and show them beauty products....

I really like telling this example because people in real life/even online get so shocked, I mean they know facebook is bad but they don't know this bad.

[Also a bit offtopic, but I really like how the item?id=3913919 the 391 came twice :-) , its a good item id ]
