What's that tool you used to pull the booted RJ45s with? I don't really touch cabling much anymore, but I feel like I need that anyway

I mean, I shouldn't be surprised that this was a thing, but it kinda caught me off guard.

I was going to get in touch to see if he was interested in finding another maintainer, found a link to his FB profile from his GitHub profile, and noticed the post saying he had passed. That is if I'm understanding the translation of the post correctly. It's a sad way to find out.

It doesn't get you out of doing labs and POCs to ensure it actually does work, but that makes it a lot harder to fudge an RFP response

The argument that one unified voice gets NE more attention is flawed. We get far more attention when both parties think they need to work for our vote. The same is true for other states too.

I take one issue with this and it's the word "cheaper". It might be cheaper than ChatGPT but it's probably not cheaper than a vanilla Google search circa 2022

Occasionally, I'll find a webpage or app that doesn't behave over 6RD and can only assume that it's the tunnel overhead capping the MTU, and something along the path is blocking the ICMPv6 "Packet Too Big"

Honestly, CenturyLink's 6RD implementation was fairly performant for me. I have gig fiber in Omaha and IPv6 speed tests are solidly above 500mbps and usually above 900mbps.

Still bug them for native IPv6 support. I've been doing it every few months.
