I actually agree with the logic. Not necessarily on a phone you take out but an average Android phone running Linux should be able to do this.

You can have a very usable web server and have custody over your own data/website.

Couple it with a Wireguard VPN to an IPv6 tunnel broker and you're golden.

Another useless website goes to its grave.

I am much happier touching grass, always been voluntary - now many more can touch grass with me.

Good state enjoyer. Thank you for acknowledging the role of the states over the feds.

And is it enabled by default?

Also is it mathematically unique not to cause any potential conflicts.

IPv6 has link-local, v4 doesn't. That is a huge configuration win.

Ah yes "the government will fix it" okay .

Maybe practice what you preach and deploy v6. I have. Infact I run v6 only.

I have devices on public v6 at home. When I hear people complain about these things I honestly ask them. What the hell are you running on your machine that you dont want anyone accessing? Bind it locally then or use an fwall.

I am astounded by the lackadaisical stance of network admins in the pro-v4 camp.

>Why would I want publically routable addresses

Hate to break it to you but that is how the internet was intended to work for end-users. Firewalls are cheap and easy to install :)

Finally some sense. There are so many senseless IPv4 shills here. IPv6 always works, never had a problem with it.

Just switch to it alrready.

As a lover of assembly, I really do love the typeless nature of Forth, great fun. Along with the stack-based computation. There were also cells which was like a heap from what I recall.

I taught myself some Forth, I ought to get back into it though!

Can I show up for the future?

These are good ideas. The simplicity here is what I am going for.

I don't see such a feat taking place in the next decade, you need highly dedicated people. I can see new code being written in Rust but a C free build sounds like something that really won't be happening anytime soon.

I wish something like it could happen, but I am causyiously optimistic.

Fellow African here, this reminds me of a book I read called Americanah.

Was a sweet story. Nigeria is cool.

Also a compiler enjoyer so this slaps. I love seeing people roll their own.
