     @Hoss You can use IPv4 without NAT you know?
     
     "Amazingly" if you do that, it's suddenly free from brokenness - too bad there's not enough IPv4 addresses to go around.

     IPv6 is cringe, I'm glad the shills will have to seethe over NAT until the end of time.

     IPv6 is as what IP should have been and has already been implemented.
     
     The reason for the poor support is purely due to incompetence.

     @Hoss @Suiseiseki Retarded opinion. Even if ip6 were actually shit, NAT is still more shit, and the correct solution isn't to keep sucking cock, it's to work out what ip6 should have been and implement that.

     Fixed length addressing and subnetting is necessary to have efficient routing and allow for big routers to be functional, as having to do lookups of an arbitrary length address and IP packets with a non-constant core field layout will kill routing efficiency.
     
     Tor onions and GNUnet addressing combines naming and addressing schemes with authentication, although they do rely on IP routing as the core layer.

     @Hoss @Suiseiseki (Obviously you can't just map DNS onto physical as it is, because it's DNS, but it didn't have to be that way.)

     @Suiseiseki @Hoss Hypothetical, breakfast question whatever. I think ip6 is fine enough as it is, though I do wonder if IP itself is necessary, or if we could replace that with some sort of DNS-like system.
