This again? Just use v6, it’s not that hard.

I still use the Kermit client almost daily. Enterprise network gear still has serial ports (most still defaulted to 9600 baud!) and have an old laptop running MS-DOS and Kermit in my staging room to quickly configure remote access.

Boots in seconds :)

Quad9, like most global DNS providers uses anycast to provide redundancy and low latency. My connection to them still terminates in Chicago. If my DNS queries are answered in the US, surely they are under some type of US Gov authority and regulation?

I think I agree with others, seems like a publicity stunt with very little real-world impact.

My city went to one to pay for water, trash pickup, etc. It's a horrible experience to use. It takes longer and is less efficient than just logging into a modern website and paying.

I'm surprised at the marketshare dnsmasq has, I would've thought BIND and dnsmasq numbers to be flipped.

What are fellow HN'ers using for file sync/sharing? I was a Dropbox early adopter but haven't been as impressed as of late, with Dropbox suddenly trying to integrate into my MS Office apps and trying to upload my screenshots and photos.

I'm not a huge fan of Google Drive's recent redesign either. I like box.com but haven't moved anything yet.

Cool. I'm not the one who originally posted the question but had the same one upon checking out the starting page. Great idea, something I would be interested in signing up for, but too much plastic at this point.

I'll have to look into OTR+XMPP. I was hoping for something straightforward for non-technical folks to use as well. Any recommendations on clients?

What I meant by iOS/Chrome is that you currently can't setup the desktop (Chrome) app with an iOS device, it's Android only.
