    I had to go around all the shops here to find it. Eventually did in Tesco, last bottle on the shelf. Few of the pharmacies said people are buying it because of Covoid-19 ffs. Next you’ll see fake listings for €1000 and idiots chancing their arm on Adverts.ie wanting €20 a bottle.

    To stop a wound getting infected. I’m sure there’s people out there with other medical issues that’ll be inconvenienced by this.

    Well technically it is, just not the networking kind.

    People who use TCP will stink and people will avoid them, that is how it works.

    Like bread is the most perishable thing you can buy. He's definitely not a survivalist, he's just thick.

    I used to know a lad in college, was big into porn and knew the stars by name. One day he was writing some assignment on the pc talking to a few lads about porn at the same time.

    Looked at the screen and noticed he was after writing 'User Datagram Penetration' unintentionally

    And if it gets as bad as people are panic buying for there'll be no electricity so having a freezer is no use. Similar with the people panic buying bog roll, you will be able to wipe but no flushing.

    You sound like your interviewing for a job.


    Ok. I'll bite.

    I think in TCP, the connection is established using a three way handshake.

    UDP, hmm, there's no explicit handshake as far as i can remember.

    I think TCP sends packets and UDP uses datagrams.

    Go on gis' a job haha.

    Packets/datagrams are the same thing.



    TCP does fancy stuff, but UDP is just stick a label on it and hope for the best. Think DHL vs. AnPost :rolleyes:
