Took her quite long to come to the conclusion that X is not worth working for.

Thanks! I hadn’t noticed!

You test for Urinary Tract Infections by lighting a match?

Once, when I suspected a urinary tract infection, I just went to my GP to get it tested. That is the big advantage of living in a civilized country with a working medical insurance system…

Can someone list which laws he would break if he did this?

I’m surprised that Germany was not faster. But so far, Berlin is still asleep.

I fondly remember regularly logging into simtel20.wsmr.army.mil back in the days (WSMR=White Sands Missile Range). No issue, just used “anonymous” as the username, and your email address as the password. And even the email address was just a convenience…

In nearly forty-ish years on the internet (yes, I was around before the web), I have not seen someone expressing an internet address in octal (before this discussion), although I remember that it is legal. Using hex, yes, but not octal.

But it does not work by definition, it is non-routable. That some systems use it as an alias is a different issue.

This is a special case. This resolves to 0.0.0.0, and technically cannot be routed. Some(!) systems use it as a kind of alias for all local network addresses, but it is not a given.

OK, it’s a match.

So, basically, it is more like “normal” Twitter posts since then?

What is an UTI test?

What took her so long?

While it might have been a response initially, it was probably quickly seen as a perfect opportunity to finally set long-hedged extinction plans in motion.

Well, who wants to do holidays is a fascist country, with the constant fear not to see Yellowstone or Niagara Falls, but Guantanamo instead.

It’s all in the documentation. But people don’t read anymore.

I don’t think the 500m Dollar is for just one county. More likely this is for all of Texas.

Yes, but you can write it in different ways. If the numeric string contains a dot, left of it must be between 0 and 255, and is put in the highest byte of the address. If the rest also contains a dot, repeat, but put it into the second highest byte.

BUT: if the string does not contain a dot, the number is put into the remaining bytes.

So 123.256 is a valid address. The 123 goes into the top byte, the 256 goes into the remaining three bytes, so the address would be 123.0.1.0.

Most common example is 127.1, which is short for 127.0.0.1 - the localhost address.

Try pinging 127.1 - it is the same, but shorter.

Just another tipp from someone who learned TCP/IP from reading the sources over three decades ago…

For what Trump did, Netanyahu would probably give him a blowjob.
