It's easier than ever to rent your own servers, it's harder than ever to run your own servers.

There was a time when you could serve anything from a home ISP connection.

Agreed. I still remember though being on dialup and using a UUCP method of mail receipt and delivery since I didnt have 24/7 connectivity. It was hard.

With everyone on 24/7 cable connections, I really did expect something different.

Its too bad IPv6 isnt taking off like it could and should.
