Donald Trump (wants to fleece the public with worthless AI stock), Bernie Sanders (mistakenly believes the AI hype and wants to seize the means of production) And Sam Altman(wants to fleece the public with worthless AI stock).

TFTFY.

If they really believed in AI, do you really think they would share any of the proceeds with you?

There's ~8 billion of us, if we eat one or two of these antisocial dickheads, that works out to be less than a gram per citizen, you won't even notice it. Less than a communion wafer or the rat hair in a hotdog. Part of your civic duty like going to church or jury duty.

To me the hoops that smoothbrains will jump through to avoid IPv6 and stay on legacy IPv4, especially when hosting, is pathetic. NAT, port forwarding, tunnels, blah blah blah blah.

I have something like ~1.2 trillion times the number of routable addresses that the entire IPv4 space has. Not all are reachable, of course, just the services that need incoming access and they're each on their own isolated DMZ.

Forgot to add: if you enable IPv6, be sure to use the browser extension IPvFoo. It shows a small 4 or 6 in your URI bar to let you know what protocol you're connecting to. Once enabled, you'll see just how much stuff out there actually is IPv6.
