Powerwash Simulator is £10 on Steam right now. You know, if you need a massive black hole into which you can shovel your every free minute for the next few weeks.
“Click here to resubscribe”.
Buddy, I scrolled down to the white text on a white background saying unsubscribe, clicked it, filled in my email address, then click the unsubscribe button. This was not in any way an accident.
I think it’s probably time I learned how IPv6 works, does anyone have a decent entry point for that? I’m mostly looking for a high level overview which can tell what topics are worth diving into and which ones are either deprecated or experimental - as an example I know of at least DHCPv6 and SLAAC for config, are they both relevant? Is one clearly better? I have no idea.
