Do you think we became the dominant species by being independent loners, or by forming complex interdependent groups?

I said "independent to the degree possible", not absolutely.

I do not live in a binary world. I accept things in between.

Being part of group should be voluntary, not forced

What I definitely do not want is my life to be dictated by a few imbeciles at the top who are bought by large corps to pretend to be "by the people for the people".

The solution to that is widespread active low level constant community engagement in policy and monitoring the people you hire to debate policy (politicians) and the various silo's created to enact policy (military, civil service, legal, emergancy response, etc.).

Some people think it sufficient to pay no attention and let things slide indefinitely because "ultimately we can just rise up and shoot the government".

Such people have clogged toilets.

Isn't it expected that in a system that favors individualism over collectivism that a few people will be able to amass disproportionately more wealth and power than everyone else with no incentive or societally enforced responsibility to share that wealth and power, thus creating a society were your life is dictated by a few imbeciles at the top, not who are not bought by large corps, but who own the large corps?

Collectivism has many problems as well including that some are "more equal" and amass the same disproportional wealth (maybe under the cover and not placated but it is still there).

This. Sure there are still some applications that might be difficult to v6 enable, so either patch it or use one of the myriad of options to give it a v6 front end.

We could abbreviate that to SND!

Your bad attempt at humor makes it quite clear that you've never dealt with network engineering or administrating to any extent.

Admitting that ipv6 has some downsides, however minor they may seem to you, won't hurt your quest to render ipv4 obsolete.

In fact being less insufferable is how you win people to your causes, not by laughing at their genuine albeit minor issues.

They were making a legitimate point a humorous way. The problem of manually typing in IP addresses has been solved by DNS for over 50 years.

I haven't had to type an IP address to access something on my home network for at least a decade, except for (occasionally) my xxx.1 router.

I don’t think rules and regulations are popular nowadays

If someone puts a CSAM data center in space, I suspect you'll find quite a few rules become briefly popular.

For a major airport the answer is always no. LGA is in the 20 top busiest airports in the nation serving it's largest metro area.

If LGA was a small regional airport, sure one controller or maybe even no controls overnight could be appropriate. But LGA is not a small regional airport.

Yes, this is why we use per capita stats for basically everything.

The council is made up of heads of state, so no more undemocratic than your own countries executive, and the commission is selected by the Council and approved by the EU parliament.

Russia and China has elections too, they are a necessary but not sufficient criteria for democracy. Just because there are elections doesn't mean the people can actually hold the government accountable.

Every. Single. Democracy. in this world uses a variation of system like EU so please stop bloviating about Russia and China.

Again, why do you keep lying about it?

Value does pay for development on open source projects already.

That's great that you're doing that, every deployment of renewables is a net positive. But local deployments in the burbs won't be enough to power out factories, office buildings, data centers, etc. also some people (A LOT of people actually) live in apartments or condos, so it's not just a financial barrier, they physically don't have the space.

We still need these large scale deployments to make meaningful progress in decarbonizing.

Version tags should obviously be immutable, and if you want to be automatically updated you can select 1.0.*, if you don't you just pick the version tag.
