You're wrong and you're conflating your myopic perspective with the experiences of everyone else in the world in other countries. It's only "cheap" where you live. Here where I live, it's insanely expensive with (very expensive) insurance or without insurance (bankruptcy risk) and the average care is shit too.
The health insurance companies were given massive government subsidies to insure the previously (theoretically) uninsurable with no real provisions to cap rate hikes for anybody, and no alternative plan (public alternative that was originally part of the bill was killed). Large corporations received a captive market where people HAD to purchase health insurance (or pay a relatively onerous-at-the-time fine).
Insurance companies wrote for, edited, and lobbied around most of the bill as it was passed.
E: A fun downstream effect of it was that employer-provided insurance rates also went through the roof.
Nearly tripled in my case, but I've literally been either told that that was a conspiracy theory (still flabbergasted as to how?), or been argued against with some vague appeal-to-emotions with regards to "but the poor people without health coverage". I wasn't exactly just out of minimum wage territory living paycheck to paycheck as a junior sysadmin at the time either, but who's counting, right?
Because at the time I could name about 20 people who lived at or below minimum wage with or without healthcare insurance and the ones that would conduct this appeal could not.
How are the EU legislators complaining about this like its a novel idea or somehow undemocratic? This sort of email templating website has been a fixture of contact your reps movements on the state and federal level for years in the states.
I also get a kick out of lobbyists complaining about it.
>If you’re really good you can do one 25 minute episode in about 35 minutes.
I miss the days of hand-timing 25 minute episodes in about 20 minutes in Aegisub because I learned to read the waveform, and had custom snap-to-keyframe commands set up in Aegisub.
Of course, the typesetting would take 8 hours, but timing was always easy.
You have just literally described what an argument is. Please proceed to the classics dept down the street to learn about it, oh wait you can't, they removed it.
That would only come close to working as an argument if X and Y were mutually exclusive, but this article doesn't even bother to make the case that they are, nor is there any reason why they would be.
Deadline X isn't relevant when deadline Y comes earlier. That doesn't mean that deadline X couldn't also kill the project, that just doesn't matter when you can show that deadline Y already did.
I agree there is definitely more work required to get something working with IPv6 (though not 10x). However to say that doing this is "0 x the return". You're ignoring a solid third to half of the broad internet, which is not nothing. Plus if you're trying to sell to me then I'm definitely not going to adopt your product if you've made no effort on IPv6.
if the Internet actually managed to move to v6 the end of NAT and CGNAT would be a huge win.
Also, look at the price of every v4 address you have to rent, and compare it to v6 and tell me there's no return.
I've practically built an entire career out of finding ways for customers to use fewer v4 addresses and the demand is there because v4 addresses are expensive as shit due to their scarcity.
It takes as much or less effort than IPv4. And sorry if you set up networks and don’t know how to do that with IPv6, you shouldn’t be doing what you are doing. If it takes you 10x as much effort to set up something that is actively simpler, you need an education or a career change.
