matt3.org .it .com .edu => a string in dns serversoft ...14:54
matt3but you can put the string you want ... ;)14:55
matt3i suggest .org => .organization ... ;)14:56
matt3a string = a set of characters14:57
leftyfbmatt3: sorry, do you have a topic you're trying to discuss?14:58
matt3yes : avoid .org become orgasm ... + how dns works14:59
leftyfbuh14:59
leftyfbmatt3: typing doman.org does not resolve to domain.orgasm. That's not how DNS works. Sorry if I misunderstood you.15:01
matt3ok, but people smile and joke => orgasm15:02
leftyfborgasm is not a TLD15:02
leftyfbmatt3: ok, so you're just posting "jokes"?15:02
matt3but i apologize ...15:02
matt3no jokes15:02
matt3not mine15:02
matt3feels lousy as if everyone is laughing with .org15:03
matt3you have to be unique15:04
matt3for which to explain everything15:04
matt3if you want i can explain how dns works ...15:07
ChunkyzHilarious 🤣🤣🤣🤣16:13
enigma9o7[m]I used to describe dns like a phone book, where you look up someone and get their phone number.  But these days, kids have never even used a phone book, so it's not the best analogy.16:21
BrianBlazeenigma9o7[m], now you could say it's like your contact list how you have no idea what anyones number actually is but you search their name XD17:02
ChunkyzThat's a good one. 17:15
sarnold"it's like the card catalogue at your local library!"17:51
matt3mbr was easy and powerfull18:23
matt3now uefi ...18:23
matt3mbr old => 4 primary partition => 2 bit18:25
matt3why not mbr with 8 bit ?18:25
sarnoldbecause mbr can't address more than 2tb of drive18:26
sarnoldand people love drives that are larger than 2tb18:26
matt3but we could rebuild mbr with more then 2tb ...18:27
sarnoldwe did! we called it gpt! it also addressed other shortcomings people noticed over the years18:29
matt3ok18:29
