This is a really good way of explaining the difference.

Nah, tcp still yeats the baby, it just verifies that it was caught unbruised, or at all. If it wasn't that's ok. Try again. Yeet the baby's little sister

So, UDP just sends it out there and anyone can intercept it?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

No. Both UDP and TCP can be intercepted the same. The difference is that UDP sends a packet to an address. But doesn't have any in built system to check that it arrived, that it arrived intact or to resend if it didn't. There's also no built in way to protect against spoofing or out of order packet delivery. But generally implementations will handle the ones that are important of those themselves.

TCP establishes a circuit, packets are sent, verified and resent if required until the original data, in the correct order is delivered to the application. Also there is some protection against spoofing with sequence numbering. The downside is that time sensitive data might be delayed because of the retransmission and re-assembling. Which is why time sensitive streams like VoIP are usually sent over UDP.

Btw, on my device you sent the message -110min ago, not 110, -110

Yeah, this is a known interoperability thing between kbin and lemmy. So, I'm afraid I can't give you this week's lottery numbers ahead of time.

Wanna hear a UDP joke?

Nevermind, you wouldn't get it.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Alice and Bob are friends at ${university_name}. At ${date_time} they cross paths.

Alice: Hi, I want to tell you a TCP joke.

Bob: Sure, I'm ready to hear the TCP joke.

Alice: Alright,I am going to tell you the TCP joke.

Alice: Here's the actual joke. It's hilarious.

Bob: laughs hysterically

Alice: I'm glad you liked my joke.

Alice: Alright, that was the TCP joke.

Bob: Thanks for telling me about it.

Bob: So, that's it I guess?

Alice: Yeah, that's about all I wanted to tell you.

Alice and Bob part ways and run off to their next classes.

Yeahhhh I get the joke but I wish the meme didn't do it in a racist way. Why is the TCP baby white and the UDP baby not?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Please stop. It's not intentional. Stop basing your judgment on people and actions with an acute view of their skin color. Just see two sets of people. Thanks.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Please stop.

In a world where there is racism, acting like racist themes don't exist only helps prolong it.

One set of of people here was drawn white (and responsible with a child), the other was drawn black (and irresponsible). That's worth critiquing, intentional or not.

Acting racist doesn't mean you are literally Satan, it means you are acting racist. Not stopping after people point it out and acting defensive and in denial is worse than thoughtlessly doing something racist, being told off and then correcting

Would you feel better about this if it was a stock photo of a white woman yeeting their baby rather than using a comic? A comic that the meme maker didn't create? Should the meme maker recolor the baby and woman white to make things better for you? This isn't racist because one of the meme images happens to be of black people.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago
  1. Yes
  2. I don't care about who created it, the composition was done by the creator
  3. What is the line of "racist" for you? Before we argue this further, let's establish what is racist and what isn't

You're the part of the problem.
