The Stop Doing IPv6 shitpost I made in like, 30 mins sometime in Feb 2021 really does have a life of it's own. With like, 100's of reposts that I keep randomly stumbling upon (or even being sent it by friends who didn't know I made it!)

It's also been a great litmus test on those who can understand humour/irony

STOP DOING IPv6  • ADDRESSES WERE NOT SUPPOSE TO HAVE LETTERS IN THEM  • YEARS OF WORK yet NO REAL-WORLD USE FOUND for going bigger than 10.0.0.0/8 Wanted more hosts than that for a laugh? We had a tool for that: It was called "NAT"  • 'Yes please connect to 2001:500:2f::f. Just ping ff02::1%eth0' - Statements dreamed up by the utterly Deranged LOOK at what networking tech have been demanding your Respect for all this time, with all the routers & switches we built for them (This is REAL network, done by REAL networkers):   "Hello I would like to connect() They have played us for absolute fools
