I said I'm sorry. I've made mistakes, but fear was never one of them.

Hey. New board.

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.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

It's not just arrow keys. J and K move you around as well.

Because books.

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.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I wonder if the mobile sites work better?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

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.

The gawker mobile sites are awful. Just headlines. And for all the new site looks like an ipad, apparently people are reporting that it doesn't work well in one.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Today's xkcd is just upsetting. Now I have to offset it. ) Except that he did it once in the title and once in the body, so I have to do it again. ) And once more for the mouseover text. ) That way just lies madness.
