    In one word: no. In more words: some addressing methods can lead to privacy and security issues, but those aren’t widely used anymore.

    IPv6 addresses can be assigned to interfaces by several systems. One of those is SLAAC, or stateless address auto-configuration (comparable to APIPA and the 169.254.0.0/16 address space for IPv4). One method by which it generates globally unique routable addresses is by inserting the interface’s MAC address into the IPv6 address. Since IPv6 generally doesn’t use network address translation (and thus no masquerading), this would advertise your computer’s MAC address to the whole internet. More recently, SLAAC uses pseudorandom temporary (or “privacy”) addresses for interfaces, together with a unique network prefix assigned to the customer (analogous to the single public IPv4 address).

    It’s also possible to assign IPv6 addresses statically or by using DHCPv6.

    It’s better to delay it and release an immediately usable product than to break the desktop when an unexpected bug is encountered and make the computer unusable. I’ve never transitioned a desktop environment and framework to an entirely different display system, but I don’t imagine it’s as simple as flipping a switch.

    Mint is not a bleeding edge distro. Reliability should come first, always.

    IIRC, that specific island is downstream from the spillway of a reservoir dam that is opened periodically. When it opens, the island gets flash-flooded. The opening is preceded by eight siren blasts.

    The idea of that much water approaching at that velocity puts the fear of God in me.







  • If the other person has a Tailscale account, it sounds like the most expedient method is to simply invite them to the tailnet as a non-admin user with strict access control.

    You could share a node with an outside user, but I don’t know how much the quarantine would affect its functionality. You could also use Funnel to expose the node to the internet (essentially like a reverse proxy), but there are obvious vital security considerations with that approach.


  • Wildlight is a game development studio made up of former Respawn developers who (allegedly) worked on the Titanfall and Apex Legends games. Highguard was their first game: a pointless, live service, content incomplete multiplayer shooter. It was revealed in late 2025 as the final showcase of The Game Awards, which resulted in a collective sigh of frustration from the audience. The game was released on the 26th of January to a decent peak player count of over 100k (97k players on Steam). It was immediately clear that the game was in a terrible state and it couldn’t retain the players. Two weeks after launch, Wildlight fired most of its staff because Tencent, which had been secretly funding the development, had pulled out. It was later announced that servers would shut down on the 12th of March, 45 days after launch.

    Even before launch, it was mockingly compared to Concord, another pointless. live service, content incomplete, competitive multiplayer shooter that only lived for two weeks.
