I decided to give www.sixxs.net a try for tunneling IPv6 requests from my IPv4-only internet connection through their system of pipes and magic.
And what can I say? It works amazingly amazing – although I get a 100% packet loss in one of the tests pinging the IPv6 tunnel endpoint…
Now I have configured the IPv6 address of weblogs.at to redirect to the default hostname: 2a01:4f8:a0:2161::2.
(Note to self: need to update the URL parser for IPv6…)
Oh and btw: Did you know why they jumped from IPv4 to IPv6, leaving out IPv5?

I am still and always amazed of the simplicity and text-based nature of internet e-mail.
Even more so, as the configuration of those so-called message transport agents (MTA) – the pieces of software needed to send e-mail – seems awkwardly complicated and cryptic to me. Like two sides of the same envelope. And I am not looking at you only, sendmail…
Is there really no simple Lignux mail service with only a few and human-readable configuration options out there? Especially one that I can use out of the box when the MX records of my domain are handled by another service, anyway…

(Too bad the “L. Ron Hubbard presents Writers of the Future Contest” has gotten so much under the wings of that Tom Cruise church…)

“Eugene Kaspersky of the antivirus company is a former KGB agent, works closely with Russia's FSB, thinks social networks are dangerously anti-government, and advocates completely locking down the internet and doing away with online anonymity.” (Via reddit.com)
Update: Mr Kaspersky’s response. “I’m just a man who’s ‘here to save the world’”.
Bad news, boppers: the Antville.org server is experiencing severe technical difficulties.
“Armed with only a wacom tablet, less-than-mediocre drawing skills and an acute sense of smell, professional photographer Ted Sabarese guesses how individual images were lit by other photographers and then sketches corresponding lighting diagrams.” (Via hubski.com.)
