this is why you should always use
localhost
😉Hey! I once hacked that guy. Dude had left every port open.
Hah! What an idiot.
Your comment has 127 points. Would be funny if mine has 0, the comment below mine too, but than someone has 1 point.
Anyways. How are you doing today?
I don’t think 201.-9 is a valid IP path 🤔
I live it when a plan… falls apart
210.-5.3.3
Time to get a’hackin bois.
You could say it’s equivalent to 201.247.
I look forward to them trying to DDOS that address
Oh shit, he’s good. He DDOS’d me right back.
What kind of resources does this guy have? I don’t think governments can even do proportional and instantaneous DDOS responses. I messed with the wrong dude.
Did you try to hack a Gibson from your home?
Okay back in the days of IRC, I met this script kiddie who said he’d hack me, just give him my IP address. So I sent him his IP address and he disappeared suddenly.
What good is a script kiddie if they cannot find an IP?
Especially on IRC
There was that one bash.org quote where a script kiddie was given 127.0.0.1 as part of an “oh yeah I dare you” taunt after he said he could hack anyone, and he fell for it hook line and sinker. He was posting things like “Hahaha your K drive is being deleted! Now your H drive! [connection reset by peer]” and right after that the challenger was like “I don’t even have a K drive.”
(RIP bash.org though. I would have tried to link it otherwise)
Bash.org is gone!?! No!!!
Yeah. RIP bash.org, where introverted people could read chat logs of other like-minded introverts. And I don’t even /s this, I genuinely miss this stuff…
at least you can still read the archive
I came across this when looking up a quote a couple weeks back: bash-org-archive.com
Average hosts file (> 100k loc) in Windows. Or did they fix this?
My IP is in this photo and I don’t like it.
::1 gang rise up
I’m so glad someone posted this. I was going to lol
How come you know my IP !?
Oh shit! So is mine!
No place like 127.0.0.1
No place like ~
I lost my home to an accident. An
rm -rf
accident… :(Condolences…
I hope you were able to recover.
No place like localhost?
No place like home!
Nonokace like /home
But there is more space in ::1
all my homies hate ipv6

I was really hoping it was dubbed.
Security tip: Never post your home address on social media.
It could loopback to you…
That IP address is coming from inside the house!

I called the SWAT on them.😈
Update: The SWAT came to my home!😅
Nah, the SWAT would have to arrest themselves.
Hey! That’s my IP address whenever the script kiddies are boasting in chat. How did he get it?
Reminds me of the meme of someone making a website with AI and then said to a bro his programming days were over.
And then proceeds to send the localhost address to the guy.
It wasn’t even a localhost address, it was a file:// URL if I remember correctly.
Yeah, every time I hear something like that I giggle. AI might replace us one day, but it’s no where near good enough yet.
I find it pretty funny these days how often I see people getting paranoid about their IP address when back in the 90’s/early 2000’s it was common to show other people their own IP in chat rooms or on forums to scare them and it didn’t work because most people understood it didn’t matter.
It still seems pretty stupid to most of us. It’s still common knowledge that knowing someone’s IP is meaningless, it’s mostly kids and the technologically inept who don’t understand this in my experience.
Why is it meaningless? It can be very dangerous for people to know your IP address - especially if you’re one of the many people who are “scared” of it (because the dangers pertain mostly to them).
Uh oh I have that same IP address
Oh crap he leaked your IP address then!!
Better call my ISP and ask for a reassignment
Wait, I remember that address… it’s the Tor SOCKS5 proxy address! He’s the darkweb guy!
That’s probably a VNC/local server listener.
tor listens for socks on 9050 by default. tor uses 5400 as the default DNS port.
But technically he’s right
He’s inside my house!
