… all it can take is going to a website from a windows device… maybe less, it was literally discovered a couple days ago…

It’s not like having IPv6 enabled on a windows machine automatically makes it instantly exploitable by anyone out there.

Yes it actually kinda does, that’s why this exploit is considered the highest priority and critical.

But sure… downplay it, because we only think servers are at risk…

Yeesh buddy.

Great, so let’s suppress a warning because YOU are fine…

Maybe other people don’t realize the issue, but of course you aren’t thinking about anyone but yourself now aren’t you?

And now your entire system/network is vulnerable because of it. Great idea!

Any device on the network would make it vulnerable, what does a server have to do with anything?

Wouldn’t any windows device in your network be vulnerable? And from there everything else.

IPv6 was just found to have a critical exploit, and the solution is to disable it.

Or if you’re not in the path of totality…. The risk just isn’t worth it.

Let’s just not look up at the bright thing in the sky that can cause permanent damage at any given time.

Seems like a simple folley, the person I responded to said it was a floppy (it’s two layers of “mesh”?) and couldn’t remember the computer icons. Details get fuzzy, I had no idea and was curious so I just looked it up. I’ve got no horse here.

First image I could find of the desktop and there is computer icons right there.

If dragging one of those to wastebasket at the bottom right crashed the computer, it would fit the description of the event.

There’s a pretty big difference between temporary pain and permanent damage though.

Unless you royally fuck up walking on coals you get some pain, fuck up a little and you just get some blisters.
