Project “Falcon” – The DIY Router (server?) Experiment

F-16_June_2008 As previously mentioned, I work in a “Cloud company” which typically means we claim we’re a “serverless” office. However sometimes I need a server-like machine to make a point. For this particular project we needed a machine that was, for all intents and purposes, a server… except I wanted to build it myself. It…

Hooray! For Today is IPv6 Launch Day!

As everyone knows, today is IPv6 Launch Day, where we (the internet) are supposed to turn on (and leave on) IPv6.

Many people have had issues with big teleco (and specifically AT&T) provided internet and would assume that I loathe them for the same reasons, but I do not. I’ve had…

IPv6: Backwater hick to bleeding edge – in a weekend?!

So last week, I didn’t know a whole lot about IPv6 (backwater hick — slow and behind the times).  After spending a long weekend delving into the world of it, I find out that I’m basically on the bleeding edge already… and that makes me sad.  How can I go from not even having used…
