You've heard of IPv6, but are you ready for IPv8?

[davidism@mas.to]

@ehashman Going in, I thought I might be. But I was not, in fact, ready.

[silverwizard@convenient.email]

uh, what? what?! @ehashman

[arrjay@tacobelllabs.net]

@ehashman I WAS NOT READY

[whitequark@social.treehouse.systems]

@ehashman wow

[jawnsy@mastodon.social]

@ehashman Nice

[chrisvest@mastodon.social]

@ehashman I kinda lost it at the JWTs but it kept spiraling

[silverwizard@convenient.email]

@chrisvest @ehashman I'm so worried this is a serious proposal

[twodarek@hachyderm.io]

2^32 addresses is enough for any single ASN, right?

(I didn't get further than the abstract, too late to read further)

@ehashman

[drwho@masto.hackers.town]

@ehashman I had to check to see if it was the yearly April First RFC.

[aismallard@woem.space]

@ehashman@cloudisland.nz what.

[aismallard@woem.space]

@ehashman@cloudisland.nz this feels ipv6 defeatist. like it's just impossible to move the internet off of ipv4

[nickapos@mastodon.oncrete.uk]

@ehashman It will be great for isps with a captive audience. 100% packet traceability 0% privacy.
What are we waiting for

[nelson@wetdry.world]

@ehashman what in the fuck...?

[daveography@yeg.bike]

@ehashman

Noooo, I still haven't figured out IPv6

[fxchip@hachyderm.io]

@ehashman
Is this... for real?

[itgrrl@infosec.exchange]

@ehashman that’s just IPv6 with two extra cylinders so it goes faster ‍️

wake me when they release an RFC for IPv11…

[ancoghlan@mastodon.social]

@drwho @ehashman I'm still not convinced there isn't a typo or unexpected publishing delay in the release date...

[kit@m.tripulse.link]

@ehashman@cloudisland.nz commercials for ipv8 will involve a disembodied hand slamming a router down onto the table followed by a deep voice saying "could have had ipv8"

[tisba@ruby.social]

@ehashman funny that IPv6 is only mentioned in two places, each with exactly the same two sentences!

[synlogic4242@social.vivaldi.net]

@ehashman cant tell if its serious or parody.
