I'm working on my IPv9 proposal as we speak. It has an LLM validating the contents of every packet. Gotta stay ahead of the curve.

I've got a spec for ipv11. Why? Because it's one more than 10.

I've got a spec for IPv2. Because of advances in carrier grade NAT, we can reduce the address field from 32 bits to 16, making amazing savings somehow.

Can’t you just make ten… one larger?

They're referencing https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Up_to_eleven (and you're one of today's lucky 10000: https://xkcd.com/1053/).

I think they are also riffing off the spinal tap scene, where he says "can't you just make 10 louder?".

[lamasery]

I was mainly doing that, and more-obliquely making use of math/CS dork jokes like "1 + 1 = 3, for large values of 1".

I think that's what your comment parent is referencing as well

[MattPalmer1086]

Looked like they missed that their parent post was already doing that. As another poster points out: wooosh!

[rikkert]

whoosh

Is it backwards compatible with Windows 95/98? Maybe change the name to IPv10 just in case.
