Thanks! I will see what they have. Didn’t know Harvard offered free courses.

Let other people enjoy things.

Horizon Forbidden West. Went on sale earlier this week.

I think you’re wrong about the shortage being ‘solved’ by NAT. NAT is great for LAN and WAN in the developed world, but there are billions of folks in remote developing areas where it’s not much help. It also severely limits the big chunks of address spaces that can be allocated to business, universities, governments, etc. It is not a trivial problem waved away by NAT.

I think it will continue to be a very gradual but relentless rollout of IPv6. Not saying it will be fast. But 30 years from now, if we haven’t destroyed civilization, I suspect IPv4 will be a quaint relic. And IPv6 will never run out of addresses.

I had a buddy in the UK I chatted with on this thing in the early days. We thought we were so cool using it. We were not.

Oh cool, Cunningham’s Law in action.

Here’s an updated way to bypass it. This Youtuber is a little cheerful-cheesy, but the info is good.

Me, too. It’s an interesting choice.

I am stuck with Windows 10 & 11 at work, on multiple various machines. Also some versions of Windows Server.

It honestly feels hostile towards the user now. For myriad reasons. It’s a constant battle for me to turn pointless crap off that it keeps turning back on with the next big update.

It was a global success (translated into over 500 languages and has sold over 140 million copies). That doesn’t seem like much compared modern movies or TV shows, but for a book those are really good numbers. Dr. Seuss sold over 600 million books but that’s spread over 60 different titles. Could be a generational thing. I remember seeing “The Little Prince” in a lot of homes in the 80s.

Achievement unlocked: discovering the Great Filter.

Loved the look of it and the voice. Didn’t get to watch much of it growing up. 😕

One of my buddies thinks she’s plain / unattractive. Love the guy, but he’s a complete idiot in this regard.

I love yours, and have one almost identical to it. But it’s probably not one I would share with say, coworkers or casual friends. I have a “public and plausible” wish in addition to the fantastic and semi-private one. My public and plausible wish is usually that our lotto pool at work finally hits all the numbers. Considering the odds of that happening, it’s damned unlikely, but at least it’s theoretically possible. So maybe I should call it my “public and barely plausible wish”.

Archived versions of the final publications are often saved by libraries and such, as others have pointed out.

As for the source files that went into production…that is a more complicated set of issues. The business may have gone into receivership and the legality of who owns what gets messy. You’ll need legit software licenses to use those files and many other details. If the publication ran ads, that could potentially be a factor, too.
