[#]mermaid is the winner for most diagraming, especially inbuilt support in tools like Azure DevOps -- except for C4 diagrams where I still use #PlantUML.

From DanDoesCode: "Mermaid will be fine for most of your needs, but for anything more complex or for doing C4 models, I would fall back to PlantUML. Overall Winner: Mermaid" https://www.dandoescode.com/blog/plantuml-vs-mermaid

[#]ArsMagica #ttrpg, famed for it's flexible magic system and troupe-style play, has launched their definitive edition crowd funding on #backerkit. Although the overall system is a bit clunky, the magic rules for casting freeform spells are great, and I try to play the game at conventions, etc, whenever I get a chance.

And, as part of their stretch goals (which they have already reached a bunch), they are releasing the game text under #OpenSource #CreativeCommons licencing, joining a bunch of other great open games (#Fate, #DungeonWorld, #BladesInTheDark #bitd, #Gumshoe, #EclipsePhase,#Ironsworn, and -- of course -- #DungeonsAndDragons #dnd).

A good #dualstack network should still run #dns64 and #nat64, so that it can fully support #ipv6 only devices and allow them a way to connect to legacy (ipv4) internet sites. https://sgryphon.gamertheory.net/2022/12/running-nat64-in-a-dual-stack-network/

Looking for a #tls / #sslchecker that supports #ipv6 and #moderninternet? Try #Qualys SSL Labs (ssllabs.com) or Internet.NL

Unfortunately several other prominent certificate checker tools failed to work (iban, sslstore, digicert).

@QOTO any plans on updating the Masto version? Qoto is still on 3.2.1 from Oct 2020.

[#]aws #cdk adds out of the box support for creating #ipv6 network with level 2 constructs for dual stack VPC now merged. By default this will include IPv6 public networks, egress-only gateways for private networks (with end-to-end global addresses), and NAT64 routing for IPv6 only instances. When created as dual stack, automatic IPv4 public addresses are turned off to avoid costs as AWS will be charging for them from 01 Feb. I hope the new standard becomes dual stack, to avoid those costs, and start having IPv6 as the default. https://github.com/aws/aws-cdk/pull/28480
