From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

If you can't remember the IP address of every site you'd like to visit, you don't deserve the internet.

Pro tip, You don't have to remember it. I have all my favorite IPs in a nice address book, keep it in my drawer next to my passwords

My company actually used a whiteboard instead of a DNS for our internal network. We used it as a temp solution during setup, then 5 years later it was still in use. It worked quite well.

My DNS Rolodex is beside my slide rule and abacus.

Oh, you like the internet? Name every IP address!

Ah, yes.

[–] Synthuir@lemmy.ml 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Thanks for the heads up, let me know if it’s fixed now.

[–] Dirk@lemmy.ml 0 points 2 years ago

Looks fine 👍

[–] Hotzilla@sopuli.xyz 0 points 2 years ago

GPT4 was able to explain that

[–] bionicjoey@lemmy.ca 0 points 2 years ago (2 children)

That is a forkbomb and you can't convince me otherwise

[–] SteveTech@programming.dev 0 points 2 years ago

I can't say it isn't a fork bomb, but it does happen to match IPv6 address with regex.

Unironically, I used to remember 3.
2 for servers with internet radios and 1 for google. But I forgot. Except 149.13.0.82.

[–] hihellobyeoh@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I remember 1 of the Google dns ones, only because when trouble shooting network issues it is my go to ip to ping so I know the instant I am connected again.

[–] user224@lemmy.sdf.org 0 points 2 years ago

Oh, I forgot about DNS servers. Then I remember:
8.8.8.8 - Google
9.9.9.9 - Quad9
1.1.1.1 and 1.0.0.1 - Regular Cloudflare
1.1.1.2 and 1.0.0.2 - Cloudflare "Malware blocking"
1.1.1.3 and 1.0.0.3 - Cloudflare "Malware and adult content blocking"
45.90.30.180 and 45.90.28.180 - NextDNS

And I think 2960:fe::fe is also Quad9, but I'll have to check. Nope, it's 2620:fe::fe. So just the ones above.
