The latest version of the internet protocol which provides an address to every computer, network device, or net-enabled device. IPv6 went live June 6, 2012. IPv6 makes several changes over IPv4, most of all increasing the number of IPs from 2^32, to 2^128. In laymans terms, it increases the number of IP addresses from around 4 million to an unimaginable number, where there will now be 1000 IP addresses for every grain of sand on the Earth.
3,400,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 IPs are available via IPv6.

A way of "addressing" computers on the Internet, just like phone numbers in a phone book.

IPv6 is a newer scheme to IPv4, and was developed because we have virtually run out of IPv4 addresses.

There are around 4 billion IPv4 addresses -- not even enough for everyone in the world to have their own address! IPv6 has so many more addresses that it would give everyone in the world about 6 billion addresses _each_!
Donald: My IPv6 address is 2001:db8::fd41:87.
Bob: Waah! My IPv4 is 202.76.9.20! That's so uncool!

IPv6 or In the Penis Virgin 6, is a band of religious nut cases who thought they would invent an internet protocol, but came up with IPv6 instead. In the Penis Virgin 4 was the last one and it is entirely shit, but In the Penis Virgin 6 is even worse. Basically, the group sat around a fire one night with two nerds who they sacrificed to the gods of the internet by first discussing their sexuality at length and then humiliating them about the fact they were virgins. Then they used Excel (the old version, like the UK government department that screwed up COViD-19 results) to calculate out a bunch of random numbers and letters and made them look like a protocol, crapping on about security by default and so on, only to come up with pregnant whale version of an internet protocol that is In the Penis Virgin 6 today. The two nerds who were sacrificed were not missed because they were nerds and no one likes nerds anyway. The gods of the internet are nerds as well, so they will be tracked down and shot, just like all other nerds when the Nerdocalypse comes

Frothability 

The measure of an emotional and over zealous consumer in an upwardly charging market, also known as a bull market. It's characterized by rising asset prices, increased investor confidence, and favorable growth in the markets, bro.
The frothability was evident as over-zealous consumers eagerly engaged in bidding wars, driving property prices to unsustainable levels reminiscent of previous speculative bubbles.

pod person 

A person pretending to be something they aren't, or an impostor. This is inferred because of the old alien movies where alien pods appear on earth and the "pod people" dispose of the humans and slowly reproduce the bodies, pretending to be humans.
The pod person was pretending to be my father, but I knew that he was an alien when he acted differently than my father ever would have.

A dead drop is a location used to secretly pass items between two people, without requiring them to meet.

Spies have been known to use dead drops, using various techniques to hide the items and to signal that the drop has been made. Drug dealers use this as well.

A common place is to duct tape the item to the underside of a toilet cover in a public restroom.

A signal is sometimes used as well to indicate there is something to pickup, like a pile of stones in a certain formation. After checking the drop the signal is removed.
"The dead drop is the restroom toilet at the Gulf station at the corner of Commercial Ave. and Georges Rd."
