Strange. My phone is with EE and I get full IPv6 connectivity. Perhaps it's a limitation of their backend mobile broadband system?

Table B.1, Annex B, ITU-T Rec. G.993.2, page 316, defines a minimum frequency of 25 kHz for the US0 channel of VDSL2.

I imagine that the mass-revocation is a requirement of the CA/Browser Forum rules.

Re: I spent two years in tech support

Though the button no longer has the text 'Start', if you hover your mouse over it you get a tooltip that says 'Start'. In Windows 10 at least.

And I imagine they will be able to point to the Twitter terms-of-service in writing and say that they were doing their job, as Trump's account is in violation.

Well, they are a registered non-profit organisation.

Re: Am I the only one...

The BBC are in fact working to deploy IPv6: http://generic.wordpress.soton.ac.uk/ipv6/2016/08/31/ipv6-council-meeting-october-2016/

Re: Uh what?

Lawyer: "Your hard drive could have failed at any point, whether or not you were running Windows 10. Did you routinely make backups of your valuable data?"

Plaintiff: "What's a 'backup'?"

Lawyer: "No further questions, your Honour."

Re: can anyone explain...

The release of Chrome 56 is not just a desktop browser, it also includes updates to Chrome OS included on Chromebooks.

Re: 38Mb?

The speed change only affected users on a legacy 40Mbps down, 20 Mbps up package.

Re: I am happy

It's not just about government snooping - it's also about ISPs and other middle-men injecting advertising and other elements into unencrypted HTTP pages.

Re: Chrome's "Pinning" doesn't appear to work

Chrome on Windows uses the Windows certificate store, the same one that IE uses. Firefox, on the other hand, uses its own built-in certificate store. Hence, the discrepancy.

Take a high shutter speed photo of your own wee and you'll see that it's droplets too.

I remember Mythbusters covered the 'Peeing on the electrified railway' myth once, and busted it on account of the fact that unless you literally piss like a horse, the stream will break up into air-insulated droplets well before it hits anything electrified.

Why not create a system image...

...on backup media, then rollback to that if you're not happy with Windows 10?

Re: BadUSB

These security keys aren't flash drives. They are just secure ICs. Yubico's models, for instance, have non-upgradable read-only firmware so are not susceptible to BadUSB.

Re: Merde!

The password, as far as I can see, is filtered by this javascript on the user's local machine, prior to being hashed and sent to Virgin.

Re: Confused about IPv6 vs. NAT.

You're confusing NAT with a firewall. IPv6 doesn't need NAT but you can still run a firewall on a gateway/router that drops unsolicited inbound packets. The only thing you miss out on with IPv6 is the absolute joy of configuring port-forwarding.

Re: RFC 4941

While your computer is using privacy extensions it should in addition still maintain a MAC-derived address (at least, it does on Windows - I don't know if the same is true on Linux or OSX). Can you force your SSH client to use this interface rather than the temporary ones?

You could make the password as incriminating as you like and it won't put you in jail any longer - you still need to crack it to get to the real evidence. The only dumb mistake he made (apart from molesting kids) was choosing a password vunerable to a simple dictionary attack.

Also, Gary Glitter was dumb enough to take his laptop in for repair at PC World...

Re: Falkland Islands

I bought a PAYG sim when I was out there in 2008 - the phone number was only 5 digits long, including area code!
