This was surprisingly complicated for me on Altice/Optimum, which is why my home didn't have IPv6 for a while even after they started provisioning.

We actually have a /128 address only, and had to tweak several settings including enabling IPv6 masquerading (NAT).

I haven't the slightest clue why they didn't give us a block.

I'd describe that as passable engineering.

Good engineering is building the strongest bridge within budget and time.

What evidence is there that developers won't break even or profit? The demand is clearly there, it's a seller's market.

Not so much any longer. The sales tap really turned off a while back and prices have been dropping a while here in Austin.

Dead on.

UO didn't have a global concept of a level. You had a maximum number of points per character, which you allocated to skills by doing the corresponding activity. This is how you can skill cap your character without killing monsters or players.

Take this with a grain of salt - several Youtube exposés showed that the Actions code was utter shit before LLM coding was widely available. I'm assuming the tech debt finally sent the product off a cliff.

Don't think any salt is required. During the Zig departure from GH, there were several GH Actions repo issues where it was highlighted just how bad some of the code is, and there was zero effort from GH to fix the problems or even accept past PRs from the community to fix these things.

We just got our mandate from on high that we're migrating to GH. You can imagine my joy.

Wikipediocracy link gives "not authorized".

works for me

All this talk of soup making me wonder if these are Arabic/ME derivatives.

Then again there are like 10 different ways to refer to soup in the various dialects.

The wikipedia article traces it to Persian, which formed it as a compound of words from different East Iranian languages. So you are on the money with Middle Eastern. From there it spread to the Balkan via Ottoman Turkish, and also from Persian to dialectal Arabic, which would explain the occurrences in Northern Africa, and maybe even Spain

On public transit or a street, maybe. But only maybe.

Are you willfully ignoring people at bars, night clubs, supermarkets, etc?

It's obvious 99% of the time whether or not the conversation is in the wrong place and wrong time.

bars and clubs are specific venues for social interactions.

Supermarkets are a toss up. Most people are there to get their food and get out.

Agree but a terrifyingly large number of tech companies have garbage security so the bullying is often unnecessary.
