Explanation/Alt text: The tuxedo Winnie the Pooh meme showing more and more abstract representation of “home”.
- The literal word “Home”
- 127.0.0.1, the IP address of your current device
- ~/, the Unix home directory
- A Nintendo Switch RCM clip, which is used to short pin 1 and 10 of the Joycon railing in order to enter recovery mode (RCM) for softmodding. The pin 1 and 10 combination is known as the “hardware home button”
I’m not, and I’ll never give it up on any network i control. It’s simple, easy to remember, i don’t personally need 255 ip addresses so ipv4 space is just fine for me. And i don’t need my devices to be individually addressable globally i can port forward if something needs to be accessed externally.
IPv6 makes sense at the carrier level but at the endpoint networks especially just for homes there is literally nothing wrong with ipv4
