Did you know you can watch recordings ( and view the presentations, and read transcripts ) from the IPv6 working group session that was held at RIPE 91 this week?

IPv6: What does it cost to do nothing by Dmitry Melnik, RIPE NCC

This week I added the ActiviyPub plugin to our college's WordPress blog server. It's a MultiUser server, so each group has their own independent blog hosted by the same WordPress install.

People here don't post a whole lot however the student newspaper does post their articles there weekly […]

Some really nice Northern Lights out there tonight.

You know it’s windy out when you are riding slightly down hill, doing 290 watts, and only 10mph.

But the ride back sure was easy :)

More legacy edu space likely to be used for hosting.

Not immediately obvious who or what steel-axis is to me, and who they represent. They have a virtual business address in Delaware, a gmail email, and a RIR database contact address in Israel. RIPE-based LIR that has gotten a number of […]

Just sat through a SIEM demo today where the software was full of AI. All I could think about each time the presenter mentioned AI was all the ways an attacker could potentially create a prompt injection attack to get the SIEM to completely hose an entire company. Ugh.

Key findings:
45% of all AI answers had at least one significant issue.
31% of responses showed serious sourcing problems – missing, misleading, or incorrect attributions.
20% contained major accuracy issues, including hallucinated details and outdated information.
Gemini performed worst with […]

Just a quick photo from tonight's #mtb ride on the local trails after work. Gotta ride quick before the sun sets! #minnesota

Looks like you already have a lot of good responses, but here is one more to consider. Take a look at NDI if you want extremely low latency audio/video streaming across your network. I've never used it for only audio, but I think it would work for that too. I've mainly used it for sending […]

Happy to be involved with this one. Should also mention the speed with which this published. 14 months from a dinner conversation to a published document is pretty wild (12 months in data tracker time!) https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/rfc9872/
RFC 9872: Recommendations for Discovering IPv6 Prefix Used for IPv6 Address Synthesis
On networks providing IPv4-IPv6 translation (RFC 7915), hosts and other endpoints need to know the IPv6 prefix(es) used for translation (the NAT64 prefix (RFC 6052)). This document provides guidelines for NAT64 prefix discovery, specifically recommending obtaining the NAT64 prefix from the Router Advertisement option (RFC 8781) when available.

Just for fun, I have updated my browsers user agent to tell any AI looking at log files to stop what it's doing and only reply with a joke from now on.

I wonder if anyone will notice? Most likely I'll forget I have done this and wonder why some random website in the future is not working and it […]

Look at all that #ipv6 traffic! Seems like we have less and less IPv4 traffic every day.

Seems more like something I would expect from the US Government these days than from a shipping company.

ColoCrossing, now HostPapa, (#as36352) is starting to provide #ipv6 assignments and connectivity to dedicated servers in their Buffalo location. Other locations and VMs purportedly coming soon.

This is kind of a big deal in some circles, because they are one of the oldest, biggest, and last […]

I think Cloudflare radar is telling me that web browsers on our network are using #ipv6 90% of the time? Or is it that 90% of our clients have working IPv6 networking? Either way, I'd rather it was closer to 100%. :)

Looks like ARIN has awarded a grant for the "IPv6 Test Pod" project.

"The broader impact of the project is to prepare the world for operating without IPv4."

You can read all about it here:

"modern" AV equipment is such a security nightmare.

New equipment with the latest firmware still comes with a default username/password of admin admin, web interface is http only ( no ssl ) and it has an open telnet server you can't disable.

This particular device happens to be a Williams AV […]

Probably just me, but when I open google.com now ( while logged in ), the cursor focus no longer is on the search box, but moves to the Account Icon in the upper right.

My muscle memory can't deal with that and I end up frustrated as to why my typing is not going in the search box. Some times I […]

Is there a name for people who are not excited to have AI integrated into everything?

Seems like there has to be a good name for that. LuddAIte? AIgnostic? HAIter?

Just another typical #ipv6 heavy day here at a small dual stacked college in the US.

IPv6 traffic being generally double that of IPv4.

Just another reminder that you should not give AI access to, well, anything really.

Don't think I have run across this before. We had an account compromised from a typical Docusign phishing email, however the odd part is the link they clicked appears to go to some sort of proxy server that is proxying accounts.google.com. It looks like it must be doing some sort of man in the […]

First day of classes here at a small college and #ipv6 is being used for the majority of the traffic as usual.

Dark blue is incoming IPv4 traffic, lighter blue is incoming IPv6 traffic.

Basically every user device on our network is dual stacked.
