Yeah, I read all that stuff rss, so I don't notice. But, you know, I'm not a joiner. I don't need to talk to those people not us, so the missing functionality isn't a problem for me.

Buffistechnology 3: "Press Some Buttons, See What Happens."
Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
The Atlantic on the Denton network change.
IO9 was probably tied for #2 for me in terms of other places to discuss things with WX. Just with much less overlap--there's only one Buffista that ever posts there that I know of, and I doubt she'll be back after the design change.
Gawker and Jezebel were faffing off sites for me, but I've gone back to them *significantly* less often. I think the new design crashes Opera for me. It hangs periodically for me if I have one of the sites open. I want to go back to IO9 like before, but it's not like they'd ever rewind.
If they'd just fucking fix what was broken, that would be a start.
I normally go to lifehacker a fair bit...but count me among those not appreciating the change. I don't have it rss fed, because I only go when I have time to catch up--but now catching up is just annoying.
It's an application now, not a web page. Keys do weird things like move between articles.
I really like that. But I don't use the arrow keys for anything else on pages, so whatever.
It's not just arrow keys. J and K move you around as well.
I'm reluctantly getting used to it, because I love Jezebel, but I hate the missing icons to the other sites on the bottom.
I'm still using the hidden old site for io9 and ignoring the other sites. They're not as easy to skim, and I don't have any community stake in them.
I wonder if the mobile sites work better?
Someone mentioned IPv6 a bit ago....
Cisco Linksys routers still don't support IPv6
Huh.
It's hard to fathom why Cisco hasn't added IPv6 to its Linksys consumer routers yet, but the company has promised support will come this spring.
It's 2011, IPv4 addresses are officially exhausted, and the world's largest router maker, Cisco, still doesn't support IPv6 in its best-selling line of Linksys wireless routers. This is true even for the new E4200 router released just last month (priced at $180). The company has promised to have IPv6 support for the Linksys line by the spring but has not been specific.
The networking world has been aware of the IPv4 address shortage for years. Cisco's competitors D-Link and Netgear, for instance, have been offering certified IPv6 consumer routers for a while. Cisco's enterprise routers support IPv6 (naturally) and have also been certified by the IPv6 Forum. Cisco has been involved in World IPv6 Day trials and last year even began eating its own IPv6 dog food, serving IPv6 content via its Web site www.ipv6.cisco.com. Heck, PC clients have had IPv6 support as an optional add-in since Windows XP SP2 and by default since Vista. Mac OS has supported IPv6 since 2004.
