Interesting to see the per-country rates[1]. France is up to 85%, apparently!

Another reference is Cloudflare's metrics, which show IPv6 at more like 40%, excluding bot traffic.

At the end of the 2nd paragraph:

> Intel will provide certified drivers for Windows 11, Windows 10, and Linux.

Windows 11, OK. Linux, OK. But why Windows 10 for a new product?!

It doesn't look likely that there will ever be an iOS app[1], unless Apple makes key changes in the way iOS works[2].

Yes, it now works in Zoom, but not in Webex, unfortunately. That's been a big obstacle for me. I'd need to be able to share individual windows with audio.

A key difference is support lifespan, though: 5 years of standard security maintenance for regular Ubuntu[1], and 3 years for Kubuntu[2].

If ISPs tried that, everyone would just go back to using NAT, even for IPv6.

There was an article on HN not too long ago about how to get a North Korea / Antarctica VPS[1], so this isn't entirely surprising!

A very similar function was just added to Microsoft PowerToys 0.95 recently, called Light Switch[1]. It doesn't have all the bells and whistles, but basically does the same task, including switching modes automatically based on sunrise and sunset times.

Looks like MacOS and iOS only, which is unfortunate. Support for at least Windows and Android is needed for wider adoption. Linux would also be nice.
