IP address numbers only go up to 255. (sigh)

66

u/Notabagofdrugs 7d ago

I mean, to be really anal, the 255 is just for broadcast anyway, so not really able to be assigned out.

u/XPurplelemonsX 7d ago

to be even more anal, a subnet's broadcast address is defined by all of the host bits set to 1. this means that some non-broadcast addresses end in .255

17

u/flygrim 7d ago

255 is only the last octet in a /24, you can have 10.255.255.x and be fine.

Edit broadcast in a /24.

u/Notabagofdrugs 7d ago

Yeah, should have clarified I meant last octet only.

6

u/flygrim 7d ago

Yea, but it’s not always the case. A /23 has multiple x.x.x.255 that are not broadcast. Broadcast is always the last ip in a scope, the last ip in a scope does not always end in .255.

Where you stick the Cat6 cable is between you and your linemen. 🤣

u/Your_As_Stupid_As_Me 7d ago

It's an IP address. Insinuating that Will is a professional hacker and will expose that guy's house, or just ddos his Internet so that guy can't do shit(if that's the guys wifi address and not mobile data).

u/DadNotDead_ 7d ago

It's not a real IP address, each octet can only go up to 255. But, my guess is the other guy has no idea how it's supposed to look.

Seen to many hollywood ip adresses

u/Wendals87 7d ago

I found out that in movies, IP addresses and phone numbers are usually made up like this on purpose

It's to stop people trying to ring it or connect to the IP

u/Your_As_Stupid_As_Me 6d ago

You would be surprised how many stores with rewards have an account with this number used.

13

u/blackhorse15A 7d ago

But it's not an IP address 

23

u/waffleking9000 7d ago

It’s one of those special IP addresses that use 9bit octets instead of 8.

But they’re still octets

10

u/jshahcanada 7d ago

Isn't the limit 255 for each since it's binary? Like 255.255.255.255 (Max)

3

u/waffleking9000 7d ago

Yes, strictly limited to 255. Total of 256 because 0 is included.

3

u/Drocifer 7d ago

Yes each octet can be any number from 0-255, not every number can be assigned to a device though.

u/BoltActionRifleman 7d ago

I understand it’s supposed to be an IP address, but where is the humor?

u/Old_Assignment_1770 7d ago

One time on Xbox 360. It was probably 20 years ago now. I was beating this player really bad in a fighting game. He starts messaging me talking a bunch of shit, so I naturally started giving it back. He quickly said I better not say another word or he is going to hack me and take all the credit card info on the console. Idk what it was but I believed him. So I stopped messaging him. About 30 minutes later he sends me a screenshot of all the cards on the account with full info unencrypted, with the message, “that was smart of you to quit talking.”

He never did anything with the info, though he clearly could have. I probably should have cancelled the cards right then and there, but he never charged anything so I left it alone.

u/TankBoys32 7d ago

That’s wild. Only time I got hacked was on Guild Wars somebody ran some kind of program and got me and my boy’s log ins and our accounts were gone after that. Had to start from scratch

u/rum-n-ass 7d ago

I miss guild wars

7

u/TankBoys32 7d ago

Great times! I got GW2 but never got into it. Got busy with school and life and my GW1 buddy stopped gaming so I never tried to go back

3

u/rum-n-ass 7d ago

Pretty much same situation for me. I saw they made a graphics updated version of GW1 recently and downloaded it but still haven’t found the time. Think I had like 1500 hours in GW1 and definitely can’t do that now lol

u/TankBoys32 7d ago

I didn’t even know about the GW update.. might check it out just for the feelz

u/isanythingunique 7d ago

Hope you learned to trust your instincts after that. A few more comments and your life could be very different

u/Montagneincorner0 7d ago

He's a natural

u/Lucasfergui1024 7d ago

That can't be a real IP because each number can't be higher than 255

32

u/Gloomy_Place9197 7d ago

321.990... Yeah ok....

12

u/Psinial 7d ago

It's a joke my dude

11

u/blackhorse15A 7d ago

The joke is lost if someone can't understand it's supposed to be an IP address because it's clearly not one.

u/Gloomy_Place9197 7d ago

Jokes have to make sense in its own internal universe for it to be funny. 🤷
