2017-08-11 22:51:39	pints	What does 'firewall' mean to you when you hear it
2017-08-11 22:52:26	hexagon	It's a wall that stops fire
2017-08-11 22:52:42	pints	...oh god
2017-08-11 22:53:13	hexagon	I'm joking :joy:
2017-08-11 22:54:05	greenday	I think it is just news to hexagon that there are hardware firewalls as well as software ones
2017-08-11 22:54:25	pints	...why didn't my /kick work >.>

2017-08-11 23:00:36	greenday	that is my motto
2017-08-11 23:00:44	pints	A hardware firewall looks like a switch, and does the same job as a firewall program on your PC might, only way better and way faster
2017-08-11 23:00:47	pints	Because hardware
2017-08-11 23:01:14	greenday	But you can set your own rules and shit like software
