Good point. For a minute there I had forgotten that dhcpcd enables slaac private by default now. I've disabled that and have my original MAC based suffix back. So it shouldn't change on me any more. I've redone my router config and my AAAA records to reflect the current address. Should be good to go now. :)

Nick
