Lol nope! Republic of Ireland has been a heavily-Catholic country since its inception. It's lightened in recent years and some surprises do slip through but that ain't one of them.

Imagine your computer is a big block of flats and your applications are all people who live in the building.

Mail sent to the building address alone isn't going to reach the intended recipient, because the postman doesn't know what flat to post it to. So they need additional information such as 'Flat 2C'

That's the basic concept of ports. It's basically additional addressing information to allow your computer to direct internet traffic to the correct applications.

When an application is actively listening on a port, it means that they are keeping an eye out for messages addressed to them, as designated by the port number. While an application is sending or receiving messages using a given port number, that port number is considered 'open'.

Now, all sorts of applications do all sorts of things. Some are for the public to use and there are some that are useful within trusted circles, but can be abused by malicious people if anyone in the world can send messages to it. Thus, we have a firewall, which acts as a gatekeeper. A firewall can 'block' a port, denying access to a given group of people, or 'unblock' it, allowing access.

VPNs are a totally different thing. They are literally middlemen for your internet traffic. Instead of directly posting a message to somewhere and receiving a direct reply back, imagine you flew out to Italy to use a post box there and receive replies from there.

Hermione mentioned in the first book that wizards tend to absolutely suck at things that are typically Muggle, like logic, so it follows that they probably suck at math too.

That is literally how 'sigma' males came to be.

This ain't incompetence, this is a power trip. She also called CPS on a mother for questioning her special education needs program

The internet. It's a fucked up place. Nothing like what the big players on the internet would have you believe.

So long as there exists a way for people to not get prosecuted, these things will exist.

As House Speaker, it is not your job to speak on behalf of God.

Perhaps leave that to the popes.

All billionaires are cunts. All Nazis are cunts. Not all billionaires are Nazis.

Good on the host for insisting on getting the guy's face fully on camera. That's some quick thinking.

Absolutely right. I don't care what you do in private but the moment you start depriving others of life and liberty for those same actions, well...I won't weep when the axe falls on that person

Unfortunately if Matt Gaetz, who actually trafficked and had sex with a minor, is anything to go by, this will hardly shift the needle.
