Oh no worries, I am writing a Cisco networking exam in about a month, so I’ve actually studied subnets and addressing a good amount, but I don’t mind the refresher!
I was just speaking more generally, in terms of programming, where integers and strings are different data types, yet you can store numbers as a string, which I always found interesting.
interesting . . In my head, I think of ip addresses like just decimal values or integers separated by periods, but clearly a decimal value isn’t processed as such by a computer. To think that IP addresses are simply strings is pretty interesting to my amateur mind, because for all my life I thought of them as technical computer jargon that isn’t the same as what I used to think strings were: words!
Okay, I’m learning networking but have no idea what this means
Funny, I’m trying to think of the amount of times my 8 year old daughter asked me to switch to windows because Linux has too many issues, and I’ve got nothing.
The real copium is thinking Linux is poverty, just to feel good about windows.
Quality copypasta!
It used to be my reason too, but after breaking my system by my own hand many times, I realized the aur isn’t worth the effort, for me at least.
I’d rather build from source, for software that isn’t maintained in the repos.
