I have a raspberry pi as a print server but that’s about it. I tried a few distros on an old laptop but none really worked that well.

You need to understand loss.

I agree and I am a lawyer, but not a meme lawyer.

OP is asking for school/work purposes.

Run windows as a vm on your Linux machine.

Not perfect. I hate searching for a thing and someone has pasted a huge keyword dictionary into their post for SEO. It’s like when I was shopping specifically for a new Chevy spark r/t and the sales rep tried to steer me into a used Malibu.

Why? So no one has hurt feelings?

Their website in general.

If FF was only a single digit percentage representation of browsers showing up in their stats then I would drop support for it too, and put a banner up for browsers that aren’t tested against.

It’s because they don’t test against Firefox.

That guy sucks.

What I really hate is when I search for a problem I’ve seen off and on for a few years and the search results is exactly the issue im experiencing.

Great!

Only to find out after chasing that link that it was me who posted that question, 4 years ago, and it’s still unanswered.

DNS doesn’t propagate fast enough.

Just like ipv4 though, you wouldn’t use external addresses internally because your external IPs might change, such as when moving between ISPs. You would NAT a hosts external address to its internal address.

What translates the public ip to the internal ip? Aren’t they different?

If you use a single shared public ip then you’re using some amount of address translation.

If you’re using an external ip address that’s different than an internal ip address but both are assigned to a single host the you’re doing 1:1 NAT.

At least that’s how I understand ipv4 and I don’t think ipv6 is much different.

Yes but you’d still be performing NAT. It’s at least 1:1.

You’ll need to deal with firewall rules regardless, and drop IPs into policies. IPv6 doesn’t remove any of those chores but gets rid of having to maintain tables to deal with many-to-one NAT.

So you don’t need to change your network if your isp changes.

When apps have code obfuscation in use, injects into dlls, and has detection for when running in a vm when it has no business doing any of these things then yes I think I can complain to the devs about it.

As a sysadmin I have so many devs asking me to set up antivirus exceptions for their apps, disable UAC, run the service as full admin, etc

Hell no. Submit your shit to virus total and learn how to program.

Hate it when I search an issue and the only other person with the same problem is me 5 years ago and I didn’t figure it out then either.
