@cyber_rekk B: Full mask: 255.255.252.0 So: 0001010.00000000.000000xx.xxxxxxxx

What is the valid host range for the subnet 10.0.4.0/22? Options: A. 10.0.4.1 – 10.0.7.254 B. 10.0.4.0 – 10.0.7.255 C. 10.0.5.1 – 10.0.6.254 D. 10.0.4.1 – 10.0.4.254

@BenisKen @AvietheDoram Agreed «no dice» is something you have to use. UNLESS you know that the players have tricks to start boost their way into a hit, and you want to coax them into using it, but then you need to declare «you need a total of X» when you start.

@AvietheDoram Yeah if it can’t be done, don’t even let them roll. If you let the players roll there should be a chance of success. A good DM should know how to spin any rollable scenario into a success or fail.

If the highest possible roll does not clear the stat check then you failed as a DM in balancing the game.

@CyberRacheal C: 62; 61 if you don’t count the gateway as «usable».

Networking Question 👇🏽. Give it a try. How many usable host addresses are available in a network with the subnet mask /26? A) 30 B) 32 C) 62 D) 64

@CyberRacheal As long as the netmask is /30 or wider (lower number) Network 192.168.1.4/30 will contain both 192.168.1.0/29 (all the way down to /16) will also contain both.

Interviewer: You are setting up a small home office. You have two laptops connected to the same unmanaged switch. You assign one the IP 192.168.1.5 and the other 192.168.1.6. Can these two devices communicate with each other without a router being present? YES or NO? 🤔

@randomacc1721 @MentisWave Also just from the tumblr->twitter migration.

@C4Vi @MentisWave I imagine about half their followers are from the pre bl*esky days

I can only conclude one thing.

This is the thing. Democracy just means that the people somehow rules, usually by elections. A parliamentary monarchy (with elections) is also a democracy. The constitutional republic part is a particular implementation of a democracy. It is usually implemented to avoid «tyranny of the majority» scenarios, by limiting what can and cannot be done by elections. Anyway, you could have a king in the executive branch, and it would still be a democracy if the legislative branch is elected. Is it a better system? Perhaps not. It does stop blurring of the legislative and executive branches that some republics suffer from.

@jmstewart0220 @pureMetatron

America is a constitutional republic.

@Ubiquitous_Lee @Reddit_Retards Easy: devalue the term.

@Reddit_Retards Not sure why they keep calling Trump a pedophile as an insult. Leftist ideology is pedophilic right to the core.

Fucking retards

@MoronMining @Reddit_Retards Unironically that kind of makes sense. As stupid as it is. They want «someone» to do it because indeed someone with their personal values would not want to or be bothered to. Someone with the same left/right leaning as them: hell yes they would do it.

@Reddit_Retards Reddit: "Someone should a**assinate Trump" Also Reddit: "Nobody with my personal values would try to a**assinate Trump"

@CyberRacheal C, RFC-1918. 192.168.0.0/16 range B, interestingly is a RFC-3927 IPv4 link-local address, so while not private, it is private in some respects. (But not the right answer in a black/white answer) A is an attempt to confuse us with the 10.0.0.0/8 block.

Which of the following IP addresses is a private IP address? A. 11.0.0.1 B. 169.254.0.1 C. 192.168.50.100 D. 208.67.222.222

@KarthiDreamr @stupidtechtakes Way more magical. And super weird. A lot of the quantum algorithms that are available have this property that it has a probability of getting the right answer, and the probability goes up with time, and by averaging a bunch of repetitions you can get the correct answers.

@stupidtechtakes how a quantum computer can do the same computation to crack the encryption that takes an eternum for traditional computer ? is it parallel processing, or is it more magical ?

a 15-bit key has only 32,768 possible values bitcoin uses a 256-bit private key. a 256-bit key has 2^256 values. that's over 116 quattuorvigintillion, or 116 with 75 zeros i think it's safe to say your bitcoin will probably be safe for the time being

@Demon77953143 @alex54340 @InsaneCope Christianity! 100% They had ~500 years longer to accumulate them.

@alex54340 @InsaneCope That's a good mix. It'll probably be a debate about which has more skulls and why.

@elormkdaniel B, that’s in a RFC-3927 link local address.

A technician connects a laptop directly to a switch port, but the laptop shows “Limited Connectivity” and assigns itself an IP address of 169.254.10.23. What is the MOST likely cause? A. DNS server failure B. DHCP server unreachable C. Duplicate IP address on the network D. Incorrect VLAN assignment on the switc

I’m guessing C was there as a trick, people will reflexively see 192.* and go «that’s it» (only 192.168.0.0/16 or 192.168.* are that) The 8.8.8.8 feels magical. Sorry I’m over analysing a multiple choice question looking at why someone might think the wrong answer is correct. IMHO the choice of good «wrong» answers is what makes a good multiple choice question.

@C4Vi 💯

Which of the following IP addresses is a private IP address? A. 8.8.8.8 B. 172.20.15.10 C. 192.0.2.1 D. 150.10.5.5

@Admet0s @rashiesPTel @DelusionPosting In the entre history of grocery stores, sure.

@C4Vi @rashiesPTel @DelusionPosting "at most"

@RBeeGee156387 @CNviolations It CERTAINLY for SURE did not PREVENT them.

@CNviolations Never occurred to her that the DEd produced those results.

Oh the irony...

@Admet0s @rashiesPTel @DelusionPosting More like 1.2-1.3%, but yes.

@rashiesPTel @DelusionPosting You have no idea what you're talking about, grocery stores are very low profit to begin with --- like 2-3% at most after all expenses are deducted, and most of that goes back into the store eventually anyway.

Oh yes totally! There should be a L2 and L3 rep available for the non-stupid caller. The reason why the L1s are so stupid is because they cost less. If they have the knowledge you specifically ask about, they'd be L2 or L3. In my experience (with my ISP) if I say the right magic words, they'll escalate me.

@asikunaa I guess, but why not have at least one L3 rep available for the 0.000001% ☹️

why does every ISP tech support rep have no idea how networks work.

> Gateway, broadcast and all the other predefined addresses on the subnet depending on the design you have. >Additionally it is way easier to spot the location of host with numbers than it is with letters. No? That's your personal opinion. I find it a lot easier when every subnet is a /64. So Not relevant for IPv6 is what I'm hearing? Also the gateway is not a predefined address. It's common to use the first address on the subnet but it is in no way shape or form the rule. As an alleged network engineer with "12 year of experience" you should know that.

@C4Vi @TheoRettich @allisx86 Gateway, broadcast and all the other predefined addresses on the subnet depending on the design you have. Additionally it is way easier to spot the location of host with numbers than it is with letters.
