• Final IPv4 addresses to be issued within months, NRO warns

This will be quite an expensive upgrade for all of my computers and network switches :suicide:
Called my ISP once yesterday and once today (the extra time on a hunch). Got connected to Technical both times - the first was clueless and the second said my area was covered; didn't dare to push it (upon some thought that sounds rather bizarre.)
My ISP is already giving out IPv6 and I'm actually getting a better connection (fiber :D but still nothing too fast because that's expensive and not fully ready over here) next Saturday, maybe I'll get IPv6 who knoes.
I'm going to play devil's advocate here because I actually can't wait for this crisis to happen. It will convince the world to take the problems associated with not updating hardware and software seriously, like how Y2K didn't.

oh god my ipv6 thing in ipconfig is horrible.
Like it wasn't hard enough to memorise ~20 IP(v4) adresses.:saddowns:
How funny that I'm reading this as I sit in my Cisco class. Christ I'm going to hate IPv6 Fucking hexadecimal.
