Are they going to expand into Canada? That's a much better deal than getting reemed by Telus or Rogers.

[-] [email protected] 6 points 8 months ago

Yeah, no joke. That would be awesome, and they wouldn't be scared off by the paper terrorism.

When Mexico sends us us people, they're not sending their best. /s

Damn, they must be charging an arm and a leg then, or your firstborn perhaps.

Wi-Fi protection racket has to be a new one, right?

[-] [email protected] 29 points 8 months ago

If you're using TCP and losing packets you should be panicking though, because something is very wrong...

[-] [email protected] 31 points 8 months ago

True, but TCP will just resend them, you won’t lose anything but some latency. Meaning it’s something to look into, but not something to panic about.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago

You can lose packets. Just cut the cable, but the other side will notice that the transmission is incomplete.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 8 months ago

Shouldn't the engineer be a bit more worried if the cable's been cut?

If UDP drops packets it's probably nothing. If TCP drops packets it's because something's actually wrong.
