There are 4.3 billion possible IPv4 addresses, or a bit better than half the total number of people on the planet.

There are 340 undecillion possible IPv6 addresses, which is about 100 addresses per atom on earth.

While this is likely true and a valid point, I’m realizing it’s been years since I’ve tuned into a rock station on the radio.

I’d be curious as to why you feel that way?

That is a good counter. Faith No More have some very weird tunes, although I’d say Primus is more consistently weird. Still, Faith No More have 20 million album sales, so that puts them ahead on that part of end of the ratio.
April 26, 2025 at 1:16 AM
Yeah, I haven’t broken out the weirdometer, but I expect you’re correct in your assessment. Still, I think it at least puts Primus in the ballpark?

Maybe if we count Les’ other projects against SOAD’s other projects? Love me some Claypool Lennon Delirium.
April 26, 2025 at 12:47 AM
Yeah, 40 million albums to 12 million SOAD vs Primus. So, is Primus 3.5 times as weird as SOAD?
April 26, 2025 at 12:39 AM
While I definitely agree that Primus isn’t as big, they’re still pretty big. SOAD has had 40 million album sales to Primus’ 12 million. Now we just have to figure out if the Primus weirdness ratio compensates for that?
April 26, 2025 at 12:36 AM
Primus?

So, taking his numbers at face value, 10 years from now we’ll almost have recovered from what they’ve just done. That’s a plan…I guess.

Agreed. I would think identity politics pushes an “us versus them” mentality. Wouldn’t that therefore make the left’s focus on inclusion the opposite of identity politics?

This. I wouldn’t even had minded if they’d *eventually* voted for the CR, but they gave up before the fighting even started…

I’m also a fed, and I completely agree. They need to push back.
March 11, 2025 at 7:35 PM
Eh, can’t argue with that.

Valid point, but my guess is that lack of effort would also mean that they just nabbed an M365 tenant and Microsoft will do it for them.

Yes, they can be spoofed, but there are measures to block and capture spoofed messages, like DMARC.

While I appreciate the idea, it’s highly likely that they have email rules in place to simply discard any email that doesn’t originate from a .mil or .gov domain.

I mean, I assume Al Green voted present because it was for his own censure.
