On the topic, how would I even get an IPv6 address? Do you have to request it from your ISP?

I use ipv6 extensively for running sites & backend networking etc and yeah, it's not perfect but it beats paying for ipv4 addresses.
if your isp doesn't offer it, you can't get it. most VPNs do though so that's another way around it. mullvad does for example.

What do you mean? Nothing there says its for older versions, just 10 or 11.

I got it down to being on the front page within a minute's time but I still don't like how it takes around 15 seconds for programs on my toolbar to start appearing. I am sure that with further debloating I can get that time even further down.
Like what? Everything is working fine for me after after disabling or deleting a few worthless features. I see no evidence of lowered performance or worse connection to the internet. What was found to be severely reducing my bootup time ended up being some worthless bit of bloat I had to use a command prompt to properly disable, not disabling IPv6 like someone here said earlier.

The amount of shit I'm willing to put up with is proportional to the amount of utility that comes out of it for me.
As it stands, IPv6 on a desktop is the best option in very specific cases, and even then the alternatives don't suck.
I get the issue of trying to host a service, but being stuck with a faggy ISP with CGNAT, with IPv6 as a respite.
- If you want the service to be accessible from any network (including IPv4 only), and any device (including ones you can't install anything on), you can get a VPN with port forwarding, you have to pay, but it will work no questions asked.
- If you do own the accessing device, then you can use something like ZeroTier, and that solution works for IPv4 networks too.
- If you know the accessing network has IPv6, and the device is owned by someone else, you probably can only access a webapp, and something like Cloudflare Tunnels can do that.
So the incentive for me to set up IPv6 on my desktop would be:
- I'm hosting a service from my desktop
- And my ISP has both CGNAT and IPv6
- And I'm accessing it from a network that I know has IPv6
- And it's from a machine I don't own / can't install stuff on
- And it's something that isn't a webapp, but is pre-installed there
That's a little to contrived for me to go out of my way to preemptively implement.
Nothing wrong with setting up something for the sake of learning, but in terms of effort to benefit ratio, I don't see the value in IPv6, unless there is some use case you can bring up that I haven't considered.

I have the fast boot feature turned off and my 22H2 computer takes only 10 seconds to boot. The hell are you putting on your computer?
They got rid of the QA department in 2015. There is pretty much no QA when it comes to patches. Have had no issue with the patch for this problem, by the way.

This, ladies and gentlemen, is a great example of hubris. If this retard had just updated his computer every once in a while, he would not have so many problems, and he would have been able to deal with the changes gradually. And then he doubles down about never updating. Please, for the love of God, don’t be like this guy.
Go ahead and defer feature updates. I defer mine for a year. Turn off the automatic updater, too, if you want (I do). But don’t be a retard and never update. You’re not an air gapped mission critical remote system with a multi-million dollar budget to update every five years. If you are on the internet, you need to have a reasonably up-to-date system. And you need to stay up-to-date with security patches.

What you actually should do is wipe and reinstall. In-place upgrading to a build that's a full seven years newer with an unknown amount of unknown quality "debloating" registry hacks from the very early days of Win10 is asking for shitty weird issues down the line.

What's the "effort", in your case?
If your ISP doesn't offer IPV6 then sure, that's an easy excuse but if you're hosting services then I assume you work or aspire to work in IT so you should probably be wanting to learn it even if there isn't a golden carrot to tempt you. I find it so bizarre that you're willing to pay for a VPN or succumb to cloudflare rather than doing something as adding a new stanza in ifupdown(2) and changing
inet to inet6, adding address and gateway and restarting networking. It is, literally, that simple.ImagineTheSmell

As @skunt points out, any good 'privacy VPN' will likely at least have options for being able to access IPv6 as a client. Getting your whole home network up with IPv6 is another matter.
IPv6 is better for enthusiasts than anyone else. It can be fun to set up your home network to have globally routed IPv6 (with appropriate firewalls preventing access from outside to internal anything but legitimate server ports like the BitTorrent ones of course).
But the options aren't necessarily great.
If your ISP even offers IPv6 at all, it may be through 6to4 or 6RD or some other technology which means it's tied to your IPv4 address and varies as that varies, or otherwise gets reset when your connection goes down. So you don't get the benefit of a static IP/static /48 or /64 network which would be literally free (assuming that they're doing IPv6 anyway) for the ISP to offer. But if they did offer a static IPv6, that would cut into their marked up monthly charges for people who want static IPv4 addresses. So they keep their IPv6 offerings shit to preserve their existing revenues from static IPv4.
Even if your ISP doesn't offer IPv6, there are other options. 6to4 will kind of work when used in the wild, although it will work by using connections from your router to completely random gateways that are probably quite far away on the IPv4 network and will probably not perform well and may go down at random and may be monitoring any unencrypted traffic you send (on top of whatever the 5 jew eyes are doing anyway). This can work as long as you don't mind dynamic IPv4 meaning your IPv6 addresses are dynamic.
There is an alternative, which is to use an explicit 'tunnel broker' that provides you an explicitly defined IPv6 network space, which will not change based on your IPv4 address, and have traffic bridged between that network and your router/device/s via 6in4. Hurricane Electric has some really, really, really convenient services for this, with fairly good performance. Unfortunately, Hurricane Electric are also well-documented niggerfaggots:
Will they cut you off from service for connecting to KiwiFarms IP(v6)'s? Probably not, it would be too much work. Would they report you to authorities for accessing KF from Germany or the UK or other shithole countries? Probably not, it would be too much work. Do they block KF IP's? Maybe, I use a VPN all the time to access it, I wouldn't know. But generally, while they might be a good way to get a routed IPv6 network with stable IPs online, they can't be trusted for anything 'edgy'.
I'm have no doubt that if you were running a website that got DMCA'd or abuse complaint'ed to CloudFlare from your home router that you'd hooked up to IPv6 via the HE IPv6 tunnelbroker, they'd just drop you from their service straight away after getting the complaint without even emailing you.

i'd typed this out previously in my post up above but i removed i felt it was veering off topic but whatever, will type it out again because techboomers annoy me.
if you're in any way interested in networking, BGP etc, IPV6 should have you pretty excited. it's not perfect sure, but who cares. IPV6 will allow you, yes you the sysadmin/wannabe sysadmin/computer science student/homelabber to run your own ASN (https://www.arin.net/resources/guide/asn/) for pennies on the dollar.
previously with IPV4, this was basically impossible for the atypical joe soap because buying even small ranges ran into the tens of thousands of dollars (https://auctions.ipv4.global/) not including account-registration and yearly fees. now all you need is a referral and you'll be cut your own /48 or whatever you need. need several ranges? sure. here's an archive of a good article written by someone who's done just that.
and if you are a student reading this and interested in networking, this shit is amazing on your CV. there is no better time to get started because no matter how you feel about IPV6, it's not going anywhere.

I'm not a networking expert but why is ipv6 seemingly so troublesome? Did they try to do needlessly fancy things other than increase the address space, or are most orgs simply too negrified to implement standards these days?

They didn’t just make the address space bigger, they took the chance to do a whole redesign. This is good as it means ipv6 is pretty cool and has some nice features.
This is bad because it means you can’t just “drop in replace” and since the old shit works it just keeps going along.

Having an IPv4 address is a reputation signal for your web service still. It's pretty crazy, but IPv4 prices are also down from their peak, so maybe the IPv4 bubble is going to pop and we are going to go back to normal. Realistically, the future will likely have servers and/or anything publicly routed mostly on IPv4 with mobile phones and other client devices mostly on IPv6 or behind n layers of NAT. IPv4's scarcity turned out to be a feature.
Also, it's a pain in the ass to get IPv6 addresses from ARIN/RIPE. They have enough to hand out like candy but they are very stingy.
IPv6 is pretty much a complete redesign of the protocol. IMO it's not that much better than IPv4 other than the longer addresses, but "the whole world can be globally routable" is a pretty nice feature. In practice, however, we often use routers/NAT for firewalling, and the world will not be able to handle "everything is routable" without a huge re-architecture of everything.
As we have found out, it's not well-tested on common OSes, since IPv4 is the main thing used by servers/desktops anyway.

Well I listened to you fucks and allowed windows to update for the first time in five years, and I've spent the last two hours in gpedit/regedit/services.msc undoing all the bloatware and telemetry again.
Question: will getting rid of Microsoft defender / security center affect this vulnerability?

Download a fresh 22H2 iso and do a proper reinstall. Your current install is borked.
