  6. The path of enlightenment deeply connects us with our fellows by discouraging the influence of ego-driven thinking and demanding we focus on compassion and service. We connect because we •want• to understand. Centralized social media, with its promotional influence, tries to offer a superficial substitute as a fringe benefit of allowing ourselves to be commoditized. It’s not a substitute. #WeAreTheProduct #SaturdayMorningThoughts

  11. After returning from #MTPC, I started wondering if there would be enough @mikrotik users on this side of the Atlantic to warrant something similar. I’m not convinced yet but, should it that ever change, #RouterOS User Symposium (ROUS) has a nice ring to it… if we can convince people that it exists. #IYKYK

  12. Follow-up: Then, three days later, jumped forward •another• five hours to go to #MTPC. This jet lag is killing me, Smalls… but I’ve done it to myself.

  13. I’ve been selected to present at the #MikroTik Professionals Conference in Prague at the beginning of March. I guess I had best iron out the details of my presentation before then. #MTPC

  14. Proof of concept lab complete (RFC 1925 Truth 1 has been satisfied) and my MikroTik Professionals Conference presentation request has been submitted. Now to start working on the actual presentation in case they actually say yes. #MTPC #MikroTik #NetEng

  15. 19 hours until I can submit my on-line Czech-in for my flight to Prague. #MTPC #GetTheeToAPunnery

  16. Something to consider about all of the efforts to sustain #IPv4 so far beyond its original shelf life. #NAT and #IPv6 were thought out at roughly the same time. NAT was a tactical move to stave off IPv4 exhaustion (at the cost of limiting the peer-to-peer nature of the Internet) and IPv6 was the strategic answer for scalable growth. The obsession human beings have to find any excuse to avoid change was highly underestimated. IPv6 took 22 years to become an Internet Standard and NAT became so entrenched that peer-to-peer networking became mostly unnecessary as long as we could continue to laugh at cat memes on our favourite platforms.

    This brings us to #platforms. It’s getting harder to host anything ourselves anymore without paying a (usually foreign) IaaS/SaaS platform to do it for us. We now live in an age where data sovereignty and privacy are at the forefront of our thinking and maybe, just maybe, we want other options.

    Is our obsession with IPv4 tying us unhealthily to platforms and sacrificing our freedoms?

  17. So, for the folks going on about #IPv8… been there, done that. IPv8 was already proposed and allocated 32 years ago. It didn’t go anywhere. I’m 100% certain a similar fate awaits this new one. datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/

  18. @0xabad1dea Well, this explains that late April Fool’s day draft. #IPv8

  23. There’s always another 🕳️ to go down. Now it’s a packet-level analysis of raw L2TPv3 pseudowires vs UDP encapsulated ones to find out •why• the raw ones come in with a lower automatic MTU than the UDP ones do. On the surface, this makes no sense. #NetEng #Labbing #L2TP #MTU #TunnelsAllTheWayDown

  24. @nick Switching to #EV was one of my best decisions of 2025. I haven’t gone so far as to charge it on solar for free, but the cost savings in maintenance and off-peak electricity costs vs gasoline are huge. #MME

  25. It’s a bit ironic that so many Zero Trust Network Access solutions require that we trust a vendor to run it for us. I’m guessing the terms involve a liability-limiting service agreement too. 🤔 #ZTNA #InfoSec #NetEng

  26. One of the silly excuses used to justify avoiding #IPv6 deployments: The addresses are too hard to remember. Here’s a thought: Maybe if the addresses are •really• hard to remember, people will stop configuring them directly into client configurations and we won’t have to go finding broken stuff when the service moves. #Grr #NetEng

  27. “Something went wrong. Please try again later.” as an error message is about as helpful as “It’s broken.” is. Not only is the first part so vague that it’s useless to anyone who might be able to help, but we •know• that trying again later is unlikely to work either. #Grr

  28. Cloud services, data security risk, and limitation of liability clauses are a bit of a perfect storm. Too many of us use the services because they’re accessible, but we’re often blindly trusting that they will (or can - see CLOUD/NSL considerations) keep our data secure, and don’t consider that we have little to no recourse when they don’t. As always, #security and #sovereignty hold no priority over convenience… until it’s too late. #InfoSec

  29. I've had these thoughts many times over the last 15 years but have never quite been able to put them into words quite as well as @tonhe has. #apple #cook #software routerjockey.com/tim-cook-is-l
