    See? If you don’t like DNS, you don’t have to use DNS, it’s not so hard.

    And IPv6 won’t be that much harder, it’s only… uh… 32 hex digits you’ll have to remember, for each website. No big deal.

        Well, then someone would just create a directory that associates each ipv6 with the name of the company using it, so you can search for the easy to remember, human readable name which automa-

        Ah, you’re right, I should just look up IP addresses in my NAT table. Maybe I should add comments to it so I know which IP is which.

            No no no, see, DNS is bad, that’s the whole point. No touchy.

      I’m still salty that IPv6 is not 6 octets. Six. It’s right there in the name. IPv4 is 4 octets!
