I think that was the scene they were discussing which Linux desktop they preferred lol

[–] Ibaudia@lemmy.world 38 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Tyrell (standing guy) was talking about his preferred DE. This show got a lot of stuff right about the nitty-gritty of linux that really impressed me.

[–] OptimizerPrime@lemmy.dbzer0.com 17 points 2 years ago

So I see you're running Gnome. You know, I'm actually on KDE myself.

Elliot really is the kind of guy who would have all those numbers memorized and be able instantly recite them.

[–] Ryan213@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago

Literally the character. LOL

[–] ech0@lemmy.world 14 points 2 years ago

Show was incredible. Thinking about rewatching it now

I refuse to believe anybody knows how IPv6 works

[–] tidaL@lemmy.world 15 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I learn how it works. I’ve got it down. Next day comes annnnd it’s gone.

[–] Thunderwolf@lemmy.world 11 points 2 years ago

I have a feeling IPv6 falls into the category of technology that requires constant "re-learning". I'd also place OAuth2 in that camp as well

[–] vreraan@sh.itjust.works 8 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Why? I thought it was less complicated since you don't need subnet masks or NAT

[–] ruben@lemmy.blahaj.zone 9 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Wait, subnet masks are not used in IPv6? Hell fucking yeah.

[–] Trainguyrom@reddthat.com 6 points 2 years ago

Yeah IPv6 has some pretty sweet innovations baked in. More efficient packets and routing, reduced performance hit by oversized broadcast domains, etc. But potentially problematically it technically does not allow for NAT so every computer has a publicly routable IP address. It does however have a very nice system for link-local networks.

I think the biggest brainfuck for IPv6 is managing a dual stack network because you end up translating concepts between IPv4 and IPv6 that really aren't meant to be translated

No one can understand how much I love this show and how much I still will in the future. it literally gave me a goal which I was too desperately trying to find.

[–] galaxi@lemm.ee 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I just finished it this week and I was blown away! It helped me through a rough time too. Can I ask what goal it inspired in you?

[–] vulnerability@lemmy.ml 7 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (2 children)

It inspired me to try and become cybersecurity tech just like him. Before I watched the show I knew I was going to do something computer-science related in future but had no idea in which specific field I should focus in.

[–] spleenfiesta@feddit.de 4 points 2 years ago

Right on man! Cybersecurity is such a cool thing, I'm on the software engineering side of things but looking at how to break software has always intrigued me. Good luck!!

[–] galaxi@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago

That's so cool! Thank you so much for sharing!

[–] AzuleBlade@lemmy.world 28 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Welp, time to download Mr. Robot.

[–] Konn@lemmy.world 25 points 2 years ago

Rami Malek staying true

[–] opensesame11@discuss.tchncs.de 23 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Second address is technically incorrect. The loopback address subnet 127/8 does not contain private network addresses like 192.168/16, 172.16/12, or 10/8 and doesn't provide any utility for routing within the local network.

[–] Rodeo@lemmy.ca 5 points 2 years ago

192.168.1.10

[–] dingus@lemmy.ml 13 points 2 years ago

All of these answers are correct. Other guy is just a dingus.

[–] clutchmatic@lemmy.world 11 points 2 years ago

Technically correct is the best kind of correct

[–] darcy@discuss.tchncs.de 10 points 2 years ago

"No, where do you live?!"

"On the Internet."

[–] Antaeus@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago

I laughed :)
