Well this is going in my "basics of networking" presentation.

[-] msage@programming.dev 9 points 2 years ago

There is a bigger one, with more networking terms, but I can't find it right now :|

[-] realbadat@programming.dev 8 points 2 years ago

If you do find it let me know, I'd love to see it! I really do have about 20 hours of training in networking I give to folks, and since it's literally 20 hours of information, I like to put in fun stuff.

Like a picture of a facemask I added during COVID with "stay at 127.0.0.1, don't 255.255.255.255". Super cheesy but at least it's a mental distraction from information overload haha

could you share it to us laymen internet strangers?

[-] realbadat@programming.dev 4 points 2 years ago

Right now it's got some private info in there, but I've been meaning to make it sanitized to share, so I'll let you know

I know a joke about UDP.

I know a joke about TCP too.

Did you get it?

[-] Sonotsugipaa@lemmy.dbzer0.com 35 points 2 years ago

I didn't get the first half, could you send it again?

[-] neidu2@feddit.nl 17 points 2 years ago

I only tell jokes about UDP. I don't care if you get it.

So TCP ACK is the backwash?

[-] errer@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

No gross backwash with UDP, guaranteed!

I love slut protocols.

This might be my favorite joke here yet. Best part is it's not really even a joke.

[-] LordCrom@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago

Surprisingly accurate

[-] nodoze313@lemmynsfw.com 6 points 2 years ago

UDP cares about the target, it doesn't care if it gets there, more like broadcast.

[-] mexicancartel@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 2 years ago

Maybe i have to disagree a little bit. UDP won't drop packets intentionally or TCP don't prevent dropping of packets.

So UDP is like an introvert who ordered pizza and got 4 of 6 peices but kept silent and eat what he got

And TCP is like the extrovert who complained and got the next two peices
