Is this satire? Ask it about June 4 1989, Taiwan independence, or Winnie the Pooh.

The testing VM is specified as VM.Standard.A1.Flex (Oracle Cloud)

Is this the endpoint you tested against? https://bgp.he.net/dns/t3.storage.dev#_ipinfo

Did you test from a VM in the same cloud that's hosting the product? If so I'm not sure "neutral cloud provider" is an honest statement.

I'd just be happy if organizations stopped doing business with software vendors that still mandate disabling DEP, ASLR, and the dreaded "Please disable your antivirus before installing".

I’m currently ~6 weeks into a billing issue with CloudFlare. They typically take 5-6 days to respond, ask you for verification to do things, wait another 5-6 days, then they ask you to do it because it turns out they don’t have permission. It’s a mess.

On macOS, I can't ping or bind to 127.0.0.2

For comparison, this is roughly the cost of a pair of coherent 400G optics used in DWDM.

He is moving from Seattle to Miami. Where did you get California from this?

No escaping is done, so you can end up with a malformed profile if your SSID or PSK includes a < for instance.

iMessage is not about the color of the bubble. While the color is what's most noticeable to the end user, a non-iMessage chat means:

  1. Unable to rename group chats
  2. Photo sharing quality is lowered  
  3. Video sharing quality is abysmal
  4. Messages traverse carrier networks in plain-text
  5. Loss of undo send and delete
  6. Loss of inline replies
  7. Loss of typing indicators and read-receipts (if enabled)

AWS has an endpoint for this: http://checkip.amazonaws.com

I get Uncaught SyntaxError: Invalid or unexpected token

I'm guessing those quotes were supposed to be " rather than “ and ”.

Remember, Android doesn't only run on mobile phones and managed addresses are just one part of DHCPv6.

You seem to be completely ignoring the other aspects of DHCPv6. Your response comes off as extremely hostile towards others who may have different requirements than yours. Please consider that there could be other use cases beyond what you've been exposed to in the past.

I don't even know what this means.

It means the Android operating system does not implement the DHCPv6 protocol.

How is it impacting users?

Users of Android devices will be unable to obtain a managed IPv6 address configuration, other configuration, or request an IPv6 prefix (read: prefix, not address) via DHCPv6 Prefix Delegation.

Are they crying out about it on support forums for the past several years?

For at least 10 years now[0].

Tomorrow: It's 2023 and you still can't use DHCPv6 on Android

Look closely at a lightning cable. The edge is metal. When you plug in a lightning cable, you briefly short every single pin together. There's probably a greater risk of bending a pin inside the port than there is shorting pins out.

Not only would CSP block it, but this type of behavior only strengthens Apple's decision to not allow third party rendering engines. Could you imagine the privacy nightmare that would ensue if Facebook could release a browser that bypassed any and all safeguards implemented by site operators?

The reason for this is right in the headers. The message had a valid ARC headers used to preserve DKIM/SPF/DMARC checks when forwarding email.

even a 15 year old on their learners might not realize that z height matters

There are a fair share of adults that do not understand height while driving either. Look no further than the 12'4" (previously 11'8") bridge on YouTube.

Yes

Unless something has changed, Walmart does not want its suppliers to use AWS to mitigate that very risk.

This is true of any mail service and is not at all unique to Fastmail.

Wasn't SolarWinds compromised for 6+ months? 7 days doesn't sound like enough time. Although maybe that's not a good comparison as this was open source and SolarWinds is closed source.

I remember watching a Walmart talk on Node.js and how they vet every single update to every single module before they pull it into their internal repository for internal distribution. Perhaps the answer is to stop blinding pulling down dependancies from the internet?

I've never come across a device that supports permanent summer time. You can typically opt out of daylight saving time and stay in standard time, but you can't stay in summer time.

These devices will either need to pick the standard timezone of the timezone to the east and disable daylight saving time, or we will have to change the offset of every timezone in the US, or devices will need to add an explicit summer timezone.

I don't see how any of this is easier than staying on standard time and disabling daylight saving time, which every device that tells time that I've come across seems to support.

They would need a unique IP for every single repo. While this isn't a problem for IPv6, it is completely unrealistic for IPv4.

When github.example.com is configured as a CNAME to my-gh-page.my-repo.github.com, the IP that is returned will have no idea that it's my-gh-page.my-repo.github.com that is being requested as github.example.com will be what is sent in the Host header and part of the TLS SNI.

EDIT: I misunderstood what OP was suggesting. Pointing a CNAME to a repo specific domain name would work only if that name is removed after the repo goes away. As previously mentioned, this should not be Github's responsibility and it is a domain owners responsibility to properly maintain their records.

Their cloud platform doesn't even fully support IPv6, so I doubt they would do this before at least getting their own public offerings on board.

That "workaround" instructs you to use "v=DMARC1; p=none;" for your dmarc record. I'm not sure if Microsoft actually requires this, maybe it's because it doesn't support DKIM, but setting your dmarc policy to none disables SPF checks and is an extremely bad idea.
