I made this for a friend, and thought you guys might get a kick out of it:



In case you haven't seen the original, it's a parody of Knowing...

Scary

From the poster I'm guessing they kick out decimal notation and replace it with hex, oh no the horror!

Was the poster inspired by this (http://www.cracked.com/blog/lets-play-nicolas-cage/)?

I've been wondering lately, given the absymal failure to adopt ipv6, if six-bone will end up just sort of getting bypassed. Like, maybe there will be a Next Big Thing that isn't much like modern ip AT ALL, and it will be so amazingly compelling people start adopting it in large numbers beside ipv4, eventually it gets so widespread that the remaining ipv4 stuff is just emulated over it, and eventually people abandon the old legacy ipv4 stuff entirely.

Or, y'know, maybe not - but I sure as shit haven't seen six-bone adoption picking up much in the last several years.

You mean like non-backwards-compatible, expensive, under-performing Itanium/IA64 was to be the much-hyped natural successor to IA32, only to be pipped to the post by backwards-compatible, cheap, bastard-son x86_64? :)

Sure, something like that. :)

(before any Intel fanboys go snakeshit on me, I'm actually running Q6600s and the successors for "power boxes" right now, but I still like the AMD X2s for budget machines.)
