When people think you're dying, they really, really listen to you, instead of just waiting for their turn to speak.
Fight Club
Doesn't really give me goosebumps, but I think about it a lot because how much of a lie it is, especially because the Narrator/Cornelius is too full of himself to recognize the only people stopping to listen to him are people who are actually dying themselves. He isn't dying, and isn't actually listening to any of their stories, certainly not with sincerity or care. He is just merely... waiting for his turn to speak.
IPv4 has DHCP. Is there something in the way of applying a similar solution to IPv6?
That in itself is implemented a few different ways, and each one is more useful dependent on your use-case, but these also have very little to do with how your ISP hands out the IP to your modem. When you get an IP handed out to your modem by your ISP, it's often not being handed out by DHCP but an entirely different technology purpose built for whatever medium (cable/DSL/fiber) is actually going into your modem, so knowing their implementation is still important. Things work a little differently at enterprise-level. Although you're not wrong that eventually there could be routers with auto-configuration based on which type of IPv6 network the router detects, there just currently aren't any that I know of.
But if you're interested in the modern equivalents of DHCP you should look into SLAAC vs. DHCPv6 which are similar but oh so very different.
It's like the opposite of Dr. House's "It's never Lupus."
"It's always DNS."
I feel like we really need to speed up the embrace of IPv6 to solve this kind of issue. DNS is helpful to humans sure but a lot of these outages are triggered by services not being able to reach one another because they're hard-coded to a DNS to avoid shifting IPs due to things like NAT.
It feels like we could do an end-run around a lot of this by having a failover to an IPv6 address that is associated with the DNS entry if the DNS fails. Kind of like you generally have multiple DNS servers in sequence in case one of not-responsive, what if, at the service-level we stopped relying on DNS so much and instead used the benefits of IPv6 to not have services fail when DNS does? DNS should be for humans not for computers especially not in a world where IPv6 exists.
(someone who is more familiar with the ins-and-outs of IPv6 is welcome to tell me if and why I am wrong in thinking this)
I have all three seasons soundtracks, because they're all so good.
Joe Pera is my favorite out of all of them, honestly. I wanted to get him to sign my copy of his bathroom book "A Bathroom Book Not For People Pooping pr Peeing But Using the Bathroom as an Escape" when I saw his standup show but the crowd was too big and I gave up.
Joe Bennett, the creator of Scavenger's Reign on HBO and Common Side Effects on Adult Swim did the art for Joe Pera's bathroom book, which is how I first found his art.
C. Martin Croker, voice of Zorak, died too young. Losing him was a big punch in the guy to early Adult Swim lovers of Space Ghost Coast to Coast and the Brak Show.
I'm hyped for Haha, You Clowns but I suspect it won't be as well received as I hope it will be. Joe Cappa's YouTube channel has been a staple for me for a long time.
Also, just a note but Home Movies wasn't actually Adult Swim original programming, it was originally on UPN which quickly cancelled it and then Cartoon Network picked it up. I love Home Movies because I love hearing Sam Seder of The Majority Report voicing Fenton Mewly.
Also if you enjoyed Home Movies, you should check out it's spiritual predecessor from Comedy Central: Dr. Katz, Professional Therapist. First season of Home Movies even used the same "Squigglevision" animation style as Dr. Katz.
Sorry, added the film title. Fight Club.
