7/12    What are the cheaper/better dialup services around?  Price?
        \_ I guess people don't use dialup anymore?
        \_ What happened to http://autobahn.org? I tried to sign up but they
           wouldn't let me.
              \_ I have a couple questions pertaining to this:
                 1.  who's a reliable free isp for macs?  are there any left?
                 2.  I'm thinking of canceling my earthlink dsl on the 16th
                     (my six month contract is already up, so it's no longer
                      a $35 split every month anymore).  I would like to
                     get cable but alas, it ain't available in Cupertino.
                     I don't want to give in to these $50 dsl assholes,
                     but if I have to, who's the best alternative right now?
                 3.  What about that sprint wireless dsl or whatever that
                     is?
                 4.  what IS the cheapest dialup deal?  Like ranga was saying,
                     dialup should be FREE.  I would even hazard to say
                     that broadband should be free, or at least available
                     cheaply.  I mean, if I was actually renting
                     an apartment I would be completely fucked paying
                     my cell phone bill, my dsl bill, on top of everything
                     else.
                     \_ Trolling should be free (and usually is).
                     \_ Fry's offers unlimited dial-up service for $10/mo, but,
                        alas, it's Fry's...
                     \_ You must be a Communist.
        \_ http://www.vei.net offers dial-up service for $10.95/month.  You can roam,
           too.  I've had fairly good luck with them.  They use standard ppp
           so you can use *nix or whatever OS you want.
                \_ says 12.95 on their site + 5.00 setup fee. Anything else?

4/02    We use Perforce at work for revision control. It seems to work okay.
        Lately, a lot of the newer developers are saying that Perforce
        sucks and we should switch to Mercurial or Git. I have done some
        searching on the Internet and some others have this opinion. Added
        advantage is that Mercurial and Git are free. However, there would
        be some work to switch for the sysadmins and the developers.

4/26    I see that soda has an ipv6 address but ipv6 traffic from this box
        doesn't actually work (ping6 <DEAD>ipv6.google.com<DEAD>, ping6 http://www.v6.facebook.com
        Is this expected to work?
        \_ Soda doesn't have a real IPv6 address.  The IPv6 addresses you see
           in ifconfig are just link-local addresses; any IPv6-capable machine
           will autogenerate these, whether or not it's connected to an IPv6
