Also, tangled knots happen in space. What kind of space can time get tangled within?

Now that's another fun question! It also makes me wonder, how would space behave in tangly time?

Would the space in which time gets tangled be primarily around extreme phenomena like black holes, or the very beginnings of the universe (or a universe, if one wants to get into multiverse angles)?

True! It is intentionally insufficiently defined to inspire and encourage imaginative replies!

But what if you witnessed your knot while a knot?

You don't think if time bent on itself you might be able to see events from before or after happening out of sequence around you?

To clarify, by news sources I mean this in broad terms, so from wherever you may get info about what's going on around you, or the world in general.

You don't like having it duck you over when you're really trying to duck? 😜

CI/CD processes.

What does this stand for, and what are these (in layman's terms anyway, not expecting a deep dive)?

By tools I mean anything from alternate frontends to add-ons/extensions for browsers or anything else. By features I mean any built-in features the service may provide to give you some degree of customization or control over your experience, e.g. lists/blocking/keyword filtering/etc.

Thanks in advance!

Ooh, I'd never heard of nor seen these before, thanks!

What are they?

Appreciate the example! It's when handling a DHCP range and the related CIDR notation that I tend to get especially muddled in this area. It certainly doesn't help that each router's interface and terminology tends to vary just enough to add uncertainty.

Regardless, the comments here and more focus on this have helped clear some of this up for me.

 

Asking for clarification as what I've read suggests yes, but is also sometimes coupled with advice to (still?) set a static IP outside of the DHCP address range as well.

Thanks in advance!

Appreciate the thoughtful reply! I can see where you're coming from in terms of opening TLDs up creating a bunch of issues, even though I do still enjoy the more playful ones despite that.

It's honestly a little surprising that so many have been made available given the issues it can present, but I think that's largely a byproduct of approaching the internet less from a rigidly structured perspective and more of a loose informal perspective.

do you think you'd be able to tell if it was instead a massive homelab run by the microorganisms in your house?

 

Looking at you various USB cables with subtly different capabilities.

 

as an aside, here's a fun thread from awhile ago by someone else: What are some underrated careers/jobs?

p.s. leaving this open-ended per community theme, we can get into specifics in comments!
