Never heard of UTF-8 then, I take it? That works fine in regular old char arrays... (Though, to be fair, it introduces other issues, such as you can no longer depend on the length of the string being the number of characters in it...)

It's not pure fusion, though... So, his hypothetical patent still wouldn't be enough, since the fission part is far more important:

However, all such weapons derive a significant portion, and sometimes a majority, of their energy from fission. This is because a fission weapon is required as a "trigger" for the fusion reactions, and the fusion reactions can themselves trigger additional fission reactions.

I'm pretty sure that would be even harder than you think, since you seem to be patenting fusion rather than fission...

Because of how the routing works, you simply can't be issued anything smaller than a /64, so everyone will have at least 2^64 IPs to play with on your local subnet... But, IANA, ARIN, and others are recommending ISPs give out /48s to everyone, meaning you'll be able to have 2^16 subnets of 2^64 hosts each... The only way they could really give you a single /128 IP would be grouping everyone together on a single subnet under their control, which I suppose is possible, but uttlerly stupid and counterproductive, and really of no benefit to them given how huge the address space is... With IPv4, they have to be frugal with giving out IPs, and they're a valuable and limited resource... Not so with IPv6... Plus, if any ISP tried it, you can bet IANA and others would be all over them about it, and they may find themselves not granted any more blocks of IPs in the future...

Actually, they've had the Linux version of these games available for quite some time... The only thing new is the $5 special pricing for the complete collection of all three... But, if you haven't already got them before now, then definitely go get them for $5!
